Pericardial Effusions in Adolescent Girls With Anorexia Nervosa: Clinical Course and Risk Factors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate cardiac, biochemical and endocrine differences between female adolescents with anorexia nervosa (AN) with and without pericardial effusions. We studied 128 female adolescents (9.8-17.7 years) with anorexia nervosa (AN) diagnosed according to DSM-IV (American Psychiatric Association, 1994) criteria. They all underwent an echocardiographic evaluation. In 29 patients (22.2 %) a pericardial effusion (ranging between >or= 0.35-2.5 cm) was noted. None of the patients were clinically symptomatic. After 3 months of refeeding, the effusions disappeared in 18/29 patients while in 7/29 patients a pericardial effusion > 0.3 cm persisted. Risk factors for development of effusions were a BMI <or= 13,5 kg/m(2), weight loss >or= 25% and IGF-1-level <or=100 ng/ml. Pericardial effusions are common in adolescent AN patients. They are mostly asymptomatic not requiring any intervention and spontaneously regress with refeeding. They are more common in the patients with the most significant weight loss.

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.
