Abstract
Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome (WSS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that encompasses hypogonadism, deafness, alopecia, mental retardation, diabetes mellitus and progressive extrapyramidal defects. The syndrome is caused by mutation of the C2orf37 gene. Here we studied a cohort of seven new cases from three ethnic backgrounds, presenting with the hallmarks of WSS, in an effort to extend the mutational spectrum of this disorder. Genetic analysis revealed a novel mutation in each of the four families investigated, of which three were nonsense mutations and the fourth was a splice site ablation. We also examined a separate collection of 11 cases presenting with deafness and dystonia, two constituents of WSS, but found no pathogenic changes. This study doubles the number of known mutations for this disorder, confirms that truncating mutations in C2orf37 are the only known cause of WSS, and suggests that mutations in this gene do not contribute significantly to cases presenting with isolated elements of WSS such as deafness and dystonia. The lack of correlation between clinically expressivity of WSS and the site of the eight truncating mutations strongly supports that they are equally null, while the intrafamilial variability argues for an important role of modifiers in this disease.

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
