Severe cystic degeneration and intractable seizures in a newborn with molybdenum cofactor deficiency type B
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Newborns with cystic degeneration with or without intractable seizures should be investigated for inborn errors of metabolism, including molybdenum cofactor deficiency (MoCoD). MoCoD may present with non-specific hypoxic ischemic injury in the neonatal period with MRI showing extensive prenatally acquired cystic encephalomalacia involving grey and white matter. Most newborns with MoCoD will present with normal head size and brain appearance at birth and postnatally rapidly develop cystic encephalomalacia. A significant minority will present with signs of prenatal brain injury or malformation. It is important to consider the diagnosis in both scenarios. Low plasma urate and homocysteine may help direct the diagnostic evaluation. Herein, we describe the clinical, radiological and biochemical features of a newborn with MoCoD that was initially suspected of having the condition on biochemical screening and confirmed on rapid whole exome sequencing.

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.
