Molecular and clinical characteristics of Hemoglobin Ottawa detected in a Chinese population
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hemoglobin (Hb) Ottawa [α15 (A13) Gly→Arg], also known as Hb Siam, was first described in an 82-year-old Canadian in 1974. The same year, a second case was reported in a 28-year-old Chinese male living in Thailand. A third case was found in 1986 in a Chinese female living in the Hubei province of China. Since then, there have been no reports of Hb Ottawa in mainland China in the English literature. Hb Ottawa results from a GGT→CGT mutation in codon 15 of the α1 or α2-globin gene. Hb Ottawa carriers do not present any clinical symptoms or hematological changes, and are often diagnosed during a health examination and thalassemia screening. In a hemoglobin survey of 9745 students in Chaozhou, Guangdong, China, we identified four cases of Hb Ottawa in a thalassemia screening by Hb electrophoresis, and confirmed it to be the result of a GGT→CGT mutation in codon 15 of the α2-globin gene by DNA sequence analysis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
