Morbidity and mortality in preterm neonates with patent ductus arteriosus on day 3
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To assess the association between a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) on day 3 of life and severe morbidity and mortality. DESIGN: Cohort study. SETTING: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark. PATIENTS: All neonates with a gestational age less than 32 weeks admitted from 2010 to 2012. INTERVENTIONS: All neonates (n=183) were routinely screened with echocardiography for PDA on day 3 of life. Information on baseline characteristics and outcome was collected by structured coding sheets and medical records. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The association among PDA diameter and pulmonary haemorrhage, intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH), necrotising enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), death, and the composite outcome of death or severe morbidity was assessed. RESULTS: In neonates, born prior to 28 gestational weeks, a PDA on day 3 of life was associated with a threefold increase in odds of death or severe morbidity compared with neonates without PDA (OR=3.4; CI 1.1 to 11). The odds were highest in neonates with a large PDA (diameter ≥1.5 mm). Neonates with a large PDA were also found to have increased odds of IVH (OR 4.2; CI 1.3 to 14) and BPD (OR 3.7; CI 1.0 to 14) compared with neonates with no PDA. CONCLUSIONS: In neonates born with a gestational age below 28 weeks the presence of a PDA on day 3 of life was associated with adverse outcome; this association was even more pronounced with a large PDA. Thus, early echocardiography may facilitate the identification of neonates suitable for a targeted approach to intervention in future randomised controlled trials.

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.
