Abstract
Methemoglobinaemia is a rare cause of cyanosis in newborns. Congenital methemoglobinaemias due to M haemoglobin or deficiency of cytochrome b5 reductase are even rarer. We present a case of congenital methemoglobinaemia presenting at birth in a preterm infant. A baby boy born at 29 weeks and 3 days of gestation had persistent central cyanosis immediately after delivery, not attributable to a respiratory or cardiac pathology. Laboratory methemoglobin levels were not diagnostic. Cytochrome b5 reductase levels were normal and a newborn screen was unable to pick up any abnormal variants of fetal haemoglobin. Genetic testing showed a γ globin gene mutation resulting in the M haemoglobin, called Hb F-M-Fort Ripley. The baby had no apparent cyanosis at a corrected gestational age of 42 weeks. Although rare, congenital methaemoglobin aemia should be considered in the differential in a preterm with central cyanosis and investigated with genetic testing for γ globin chain mutations if other laboratory tests are non-conclusive.

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
