Cutaneous Neosporosis in Two Adult Dogs on Chronic Immunosuppressive Therapy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Antemortem diagnosis of generalized ulcerative and pyogranulomatous dermatitis with numerous intralesional tachyzoites was made from skin biopsy specimens from 2 adult dogs on chronic immunosuppressive therapy. A 9-year-old Italian Greyhound was on long-term corticosteroid therapy for the treatment of a lupus-like systemic autoimmune disorder, and a 7-year-old Labrador Retriever had received several months of chemotherapy for lymphosarcoma. The tachyzoites were identified as Neospora caninum by immunoperoxidase immunohistochemistry. Both dogs were treated with clindamycin. Lesions in the Greyhound resolved; however, the Labrador Retriever was euthanized because of evidence of neuromuscular disease, despite improvement of the skin lesions. These 2 cases indicate that cutaneous neosporosis can occur in adult dogs on chronic immunosuppressive therapy. The disease may result from reactivation of a congenital infection and/or a recently acquired primary infection.

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.
