Abstract
OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study are to quantify endurance and respiratory function and better characterize spectrum of symptoms and biochemical abnormalities in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA subjects. METHODS: MorCAP was a multicenter, multinational, cross sectional study amended to be longitudinal in 2011. Each study visit required collection of medical history, clinical assessments, and keratan sulfate (KS) levels. RESULTS: Data from the first visit of 325 subjects (53% female) were available. Mean age was 14.5 years. Mean ± SD height z-scores were -5.6 ± 3.1 as determined by the CDC growth charts. Mean ± SD from the 6-minute-walk-test was 212.6 ± 152.2m, revealing limitations in functional endurance testing, and 30.0 ± 24.0 stairs/min for the 3-minute-stair-climb test. Respiratory function showed limitations comparable to MPS VI patients; mean ± SD was 1.2 ± 0.9l based on forced vital capacity and 34.8 ± 25.5l/min based on maximum voluntary ventilation. Mean urinary keratan sulfate (uKS) was elevated for all ages, and negatively correlated with age. Higher uKS correlated with greater clinical impairment based on height z-scores, endurance and respiratory function tests. The MPS Health Assessment Questionnaire reveals impairments in mobility and activities of daily living in comparison to an age-matched control population. CONCLUSIONS: MPS IVA is a multisystem disorder with a continuum of clinical presentation. All affected individuals experience significant functional limitations and reduced quality of life. Older patients have more severe exercise and respiratory capacity limitations, and more frequent cardiac pathology illustrating the progressive nature of disease.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
