Pulmonary cryptococcal infection presenting with multiple lung nodules
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Pulmonary infections from the environmental fungus Cryptococcus gattii ( C. gattii ) are notable for cryptococcomas, which are usually solitary and can be very large. As with infections with Cryptococcus neoformans (C. neoformans) patients can have concomitant cryptococcal meningitis; however, unlike for C. neoformans, infections with C. gattii often occur in immunocompetent patients. The highest published incidence of C. gattii infection has been in the Indigenous Australian population of Arnhem Land in the tropical north of the country. More recently C. gattii has been responsible for outbreaks of cryptococcosis in the Pacific Northwest of Canada and the United States of America (USA). A previously healthy Indigenous male from Arnhem Land presented with pulmonary cryptococcosis with chest imaging showing >50 bilateral lung nodules. This unusual occurrence was attributed to probable inhalation of fungal elements from prior use of a high-pressure leaf blower to clear eucalyptus and other debris in a remote bush camp.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
