West Nile Virus Chorioretinitis With Foveal Involvement
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Purpose: To describe the clinical course of foveal West Nile virus (WNV) chorioretinitis with longitudinal spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) imaging. Methods: Case report. Results: A 41-year-old man with diabetes mellitus presented with flashes and floaters of both eyes (OU) and decreased vision of the right eye (OD) 2 weeks after being discharged from a local hospital. He had been treated for WNV meningoencephalitis, and he recovered systemically with supportive therapy. Ophthalmic examination revealed WNV chorioretinitis bilaterally, with predominantly foveal involvement OD. His best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 8/200 OD and 20/20 of the left eye (OS). Spectral domain optical coherence tomography revealed 2 distinct lesion types—the “classic” outer retinal lesion and an intraretinal lesion. Both lesions had associated disruption of the normal outer hyperreflective retinal layers on SD-OCT. Longitudinal SD-OCT over the ensuing 6 weeks revealed a gradual reconstitution of these layers, with BCVA concurrently improving to 20/40 OD. Conclusion: We describe the consecutive findings seen on SD-OCT of retinal lesions in WNV chorioretinitis. The tomographic natural history of these lesions involved reconstitution of OCT deficits, with corresponding improvement in functional visual status.

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; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
