Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Chronic lymphedema is rarely complicated by an angiosarcoma. Angiosarcoma superimposed on chronic lymphedema (Stewart-Treves syndrome) is usually seen post breast cancer surgery accompanied by lymph node resection of the axilla. This is a case report of a 59-year-old male patient with elephantiasis that developed an angiosarcoma of the lower leg. He died a month after the diagnostic biopsy was obtained. This is a rare multifocal tumor in a male with an unusual lower leg location. We reviewed the literature and the need to differentiate this often deadly lesion from a Kaposi's sarcoma.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
