Abstract
Previous studies of IgA nephropathy have demonstrated a number of prognostically significant clinical and pathological factors in groups of patients with the full histological spectrum of the disease. Whether these factors can be applied to a group of IgA nephropathy patients with disease of moderate degree is unknown. Forty patients (9 females, 31 males) with grade III IgA nephropathy (no more than 10% obsolete glomeruli and little or no interstitial fibrosis) were evaluated with respect to age, sex, degree of proteinuria, history of recurrent gross hematuria, hypertension, extent and type of segmental glomerulosclerosis, demonstration of IgG and/or IgM in deposits, presence of peripheral capillary deposits, whether or not there were crescents, and extent of vascular sclerosis. The mean age was 29.6 +/- (SD) 13.1 years. Sixteen patients presented with recurrent gross hematuria, and 24 had microscopic hematuria and proteinuria as the initial manifestation. Hypertension was seen in 5 patients. The mean serum creatinine concentration was 1.09 +/- 0.47 mg/dl (96.4 +/- 41.5 mumol/l), and the mean 24-hour urinary protein was 1.5 +/- 1.3 g. Nine patients had proteinuria greater than or equal to 2.0 g/24 h. Thirty-two patients demonstrated segmental glomerulosclerosis in their biopsies, 13 of which had more than 10% of the glomeruli involved. Seven patients developed established renal failure (Cr greater than or equal to 2.0 mg/dl; 176.8 mumol/l). The 60-and 100-month renal survival rates were 96 and 52%. Life table analysis disclosed that only the degree of proteinuria (greater than or equal to 2.0 g/24 h; p less than 0.05) and the extent of segmental glomerulosclerosis (p less than 0.025) were of prognostic significance.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
