Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

PURPOSE: To describe the clinical course of a patient with Acanthamoeba keratitis, who despite prompt treatment progressed to histopathology-confirmed Acanthamoeba retinitis and endophthalmitis. METHODS: Case report. RESULTS: A healthy 30-year-old male wearing soft contact lens was diagnosed with Acanthamoeba keratitis and treated medically and surgically over the course of 1 year with presumed resolution of the infection. Yet, his infection recurred with documented spread to sclerokeratitis, and overwhelming endophthalmitis. Concerns about extra-ocular spread prompted a therapeutic enucleation with histopathologic evidence of Acanthamoeba organisms throughout the globe. CONCLUSION: This is a case of a severe recurrent Acanthamoeba infection presenting initially as keratitis, followed by sclerokeratitis and histolopathology-confirmed endophthalmitis. This case demonstrates that despite persistent medical and surgical intervention, eradication of organisms may not be possible.

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.
