Abstract
INTRODUCTION: High-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is an evidence-based treatment for multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Recently, subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SC-Ig) has received increasing attention. METHODS: We performed a meta-analysis of reports of efficacy and safety of SC-Ig versus IVIg for inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathies. RESULTS: A total of 8 studies comprising 138 patients (50 with MMN and 88 with chronic CIDP) were included in the meta-analysis. There were no significant differences in muscle strength outcomes in MMN and CIDP with Sc-Ig (MMN: effect size [ES] = 0.65, 95% confidence interval [CI] = -0.31-1.61; CIDP: ES = 0.84, 95% CI = -0.01-1.69). Additionally SC-Ig had a 28% reduction in relative risk (RR) of moderate and/or systemic adverse effects (95% CI = 0.11-0.76). CONCLUSIONS: The efficacy of SC-Ig is similar to IVIg for CIDP and MMN and has a significant safety profile. Muscle Nerve 55: 802-809, 2017.

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
