Abstract
Cobalamin C (cblC) disease is the most common inborn error of vitamin B12 metabolism. Patients have elevated methylmalonic acid (MMA) and homocysteine and typically have a poor prognosis. Common features include mental retardation, nystagmus, pigmentary retinopathy, and neurodegeneration. Treatment includes protein restriction and hydroxocobalamin, betaine, carnitine, and folic acid supplementation. California initiated expanded newborn screening (NBS) in July 2005. Since that time, there have been 10 cases of cblC disease confirmed by fibroblast complementation analysis and/or biochemical studies, resulting in a surprisingly high estimated prevalence of 1 in 60,000. An additional three newborns have been identified in Northern California in whom confirmatory studies are pending. Because 8 of 10 cases are Hispanic, we estimate the prevalence in the Hispanic population to be 1 in 37,000. In the confirmed cases, initial NBS results showed an elevated C3 level ranging from 6.5 to 13.1 μmol/L and an elevated C3/C2 ratio ranging from 0.29 to 0.45 (reference range

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 it
