Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To describe the onset, clinical features, prognostic factors, and treatment of adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) in cases from China. METHODS: Sixty-one Chinese patients with AOSD were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS: Common clinical features were fever (100.0%), rash (88.5%), and arthritis (82.0%). The laboratory findings were as follows: leukocytosis (83.6%), increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate (100.0%), elevated transaminase concentrations (23.0%), elevated ferritin levels (79.6%), negative antinuclear antibody (88.5%), and negative rheumatoid factor (88.5%). Of the 61 patients, 44.3% exhibited a monocyclic disease pattern, 29.5% experienced disease relapse at least once, 16.4% exhibited chronic articular course, and 9.8% died; most deaths were due to pulmonary infection and respiratory failure. Based on the disease course, we divided the 61 patients into 2 groups: those with favorable outcome (cyclic disease course, n = 45) and unfavorable outcome (chronic disease course or death, n = 16). We analyzed the prognostic factors for the 2 groups, and found that pleuritis, interstitial pneumonia, elevated ferritin levels, and failure of fever to subside after 3 days of prednisolone at 1 mg/kg/day were unfavorable prognostic factors for patients with AOSD. CONCLUSION: Patients with AOSD had complex symptoms with no specific laboratory findings. Our results indicate that AOSD is not a relatively benign disease, especially in cases that are refractory to high doses of prednisone.

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 it
