Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We report a case of an undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma in a 73-year-old female, with a solitary lung metastasis involving the pericardium that progressed on first-line chemotherapy. Partial removal of the lesion was achieved after lingular segmentectomy, which required en-bloc pericardial resection due to deep pericardial invasion. However, the residual disease significantly grew despite second-line chemotherapy, and the tumor became unresectable due to near encasement of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Therefore, we opted for a salvage radical dose of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (60Gy in 25 fractions) to the pericardial lesion. No acute side effects were observed, and after three years of follow-up, good local control has been achieved with no significant late effects observed. This case suggests that radical radiotherapy using IMRT could be considered to treat sarcomatous pericardial lesions in patients who do not respond to chemotherapy and who are inoperable or non-resectable.

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.
