Lung Cysts in Subacute Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: To determine the frequency of cystic lesions on high-resolution computed tomography (CT) in patients with subacute hypersensitivity pneumonitis. METHODS: High-resolution CT scans in 182 patients with proven subacute hypersensitivity pneumonitis were retrospectively evaluated for the presence of lung cysts. Patients with CT evidence of emphysema or interstitial fibrosis and patients with connective tissue disease were excluded from the study. Two thoracic radiologists reviewed the thoracic CT scans for the presence and location of lung cysts. RESULTS: Thin-walled lung cysts were identified in 24 (13%) of 182 patients and ranged in size from 3 to 25 mm in maximal diameter. The patients included 16 men and 8 women (age range, 30-79 years; mean age, 48 years). The cysts ranged from 1 to 15 in number (mean, 4 cysts) and had a random distribution. Sixteen of the 24 patients also had areas of decreased attenuation and vascularity consistent with air trapping. CONCLUSIONS: Thin-walled cysts can be seen in a small percentage of patients with subacute hypersensitivity pneumonitis. The cysts resemble those seen in lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia, and their pathogenesis is uncertain.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
