Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

An 18-year-old man with a known glioblastoma multiforme, previously treated with de-bulking, chemotherapy, radiation and steroids, underwent a repeat craniotomy after presenting with several days of intractable vomiting and headache. Postoperatively, he developed progressive delirium, bilateral sixth and seventh nerve palsies, dysphagia and ascending weakness of the upper and lower limbs. Within five postoperative days, he was quadraparetic, areflexic and had marked extraocular muscle and facial weakness, dysphagia, dysphonia and respiratory muscle weakness. The patient was started empirically on intravenous immunoglobulin for suspected Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). The following day, lumbar puncture demonstrated elevated protein (1.96g/l; normal <0.45), and a reduced glucose (0.5 mmol/l) and elevated red (4125x106 per litre) and white cell (214x106 per litre) counts in the cerebrospinal fluid (the red cells were felt to be related to surgery). The cell differential included 69% neutrophils, 3% lymphocytes, 15% monocytes and 13% blast-like cells. Gram stains and cultures of the cerebrospinal fluid were negative.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
