Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of sertraline (SRT) in children and adolescents with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) who did not respond to two consecutive courses of cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT). METHODS: Observational study with 11 participants (males, n=6), 7-17 years of age with Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th ed. (DSM-IV) primary OCD. All had received 14 plus 10 sessions of CBT over the course of 218-532 days (mean=342.2, SD=85.5). Outcome measures were mean reduction of the Children's Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS) total score and adequate clinical response (CY-BOCS<16). All participants received SRT (maximum dose 200 mg/day). The study was a part of the Nordic Long-Term OCD Treatment Study (NordLOTS). RESULTS: Participants were treated with SRT over 72-300 days (mean=164.2, SD=68.3). The mean CY-BOCS score was reduced from 21.5 (SD=2.6) to 17.5 (SD=3.3). Only three participants obtained adequate clinical response (27.2%), and only two obtained >25% CY-BOCS total score reduction (close to 50%). CONCLUSIONS: A clinical response in approximately one third of the participants suggests that SRT treatment might be beneficial to a minority of patients who have consistently failed CBT.

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
