Hypertension in pregnancy after<i><b>Escherichia coli</b></i>O157:H7 gastroenteritis: a cohort study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a common cause of bacterial gastroenteritis and may increase the risk of hypertension. We studied the risk of hypertension in pregnancy following a large E. coli O157:H7 outbreak that occurred in Walkerton, Canada, in the year 2000. METHODS: We linked data collected from Walkerton residents to provincial healthcare databases. We studied the pregnancies of three groups of women: two groups from Walkerton (those with and without acute gastroenteritis during outbreak) and a third group from neighboring rural communities unaffected by the outbreak. The primary outcome was a composite of gestational hypertension or preeclampsia. Secondary outcomes were gestational hypertension and preeclampsia examined separately. RESULTS: The median time to pregnancy after cohort entry was five years. The composite outcome was not significantly higher among women with gastroenteritis during the outbreak compared with residents of neighboring communities (8 of 117 (6.8%) versus 96 of 2166 (4.4%) pregnancies, respectively; adjusted relative risk 1.5 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.8 to 3.2)). When examined separately the risk of preeclampsia was significantly higher among women with gastroenteritis (4 of 117 (3.4%) versus 17 of 2166 (0.8%) pregnancies; adjusted relative risk 3.8 (95% CI 1.3 to 11.6)). However, the risk of preeclampsia was lower than expected in the referent group and overall there were a small number of events in all the groups. CONCLUSION: There was no significant association between E. coli O157:H7 gastroenteritis and our primary assessment of hypertension in pregnancy.

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.
