Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Baclofen is a muscle relaxant used in both adults and children with neuromuscular disorders to control spasticity. In children, relatively few cases of overdose have been previously reported. We report two cases of baclofen overdose occurring in two siblings. One sibling with cerebral palsy was being treated with baclofen at the time of overdose. Both cases presented with severe respiratory depression requiring mechanical ventilation. Serum baclofen concentrations from both children were significantly elevated. We also review the published literature on baclofen overdose in children and adolescents. These cases emphasize the importance of warning parents about the potential toxicity of baclofen when prescribing the drug to a family member.

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.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
