Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To conduct a systematic review to determine effective treatments for patients with clinically active collagenous colitis. METHODS: Relevant articles were identified via the MEDLINE, PUBMED, and Cochrane Collaboration databases, manual searches of the references of identified articles, and review articles on collagenous or microscopic colitis, as well as searches of abstracts from major gastroenterological meetings. RESULTS: Five randomized trials assessing treatments for collagenous colitis were identified. One trial studying bismuth subsalicylate (nine 262 mg tablets daily for 8 wk) included 9 patients. Patients who received the bismuth preparation were more likely to have clinical (p= 0.003) and histological (p= 0.003) improvement than those who received placebo. In a trial comparing prednisolone (50 mg daily for 2 wk) to a placebo in 11 patients, a trend toward clinical response in patients on prednisone was reported (p= 0.064). The effect of prednisolone on histological improvement was not studied. A total of 94 patients were enrolled in three trials studying budesonide (9 mg daily or in a tapering schedule for 6-8 wk). The pooled odds ratio for clinical response to treatment with budesonide was 12.32 (95% CI: 5.53-27.46). The NNT (number of patients needed to treat with budesonide to achieve 1 improved patient) was 2 patients. This therapy was well tolerated. There was significant histological improvement with treatment in all three trials studying budesonide therapy. CONCLUSIONS: There is strong evidence that budesonide is effective and well tolerated for the treatment of collagenous colitis. The evidence for benefit with bismuth subsalicylate or prednisolone is weaker. It is not clear that any of these agents produce actual remission, as opposed to clinical and histological improvement of the disease.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

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
