The Montreal platelet syndrome kindred has type 2B von Willebrand disease with the VWF V1316M mutation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Montreal platelet syndrome (MPS), hitherto described in only one kindred, is a hereditary thrombocytopenia associated with mucocutaneous bleeding, giant platelets, and spontaneous platelet aggregation in vitro. These are features shared with some forms of type 2B von Willebrand disease (VWD); however, the MPS kindred had not been investigated for VWD. We found that all affected MPS family members had borderline to normal von Willebrand factor antigen (VWF:Ag; 0.43-0.75 U/mL), discrepantly low ristocetin cofactor activity (VWF:RCo; 0.16-0.29 U/mL), and normal factor VIII coagulant activity (FVIII:C; 0.57-1.04 U/mL). Unaffected family members all had normal VWF:Ag, VWF:RCo, and FVIII:C levels. In addition, persons with MPS, but not unaffected family members, had loss of plasma (but not platelet) high molecular weight VWF multimers, and were heterozygous for the previously reported V1316M type 2B VWD mutation. Thus, in reevaluating this kindred, we determined that patients with MPS have type 2B VWD with the V1316M VWF mutation.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
