Bilateral osteonecrosis of the hip in panhypopituitarism
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Osteonecrosis, also known as avascular necrosis, is a condition that causes significant morbidity and loss of function. It is a common complication seen with supraphysiological steroid use. Early diagnosis is critical as it impacts prognosis. We report a 20-year-old man who developed bilateral osteonecrosis of the hip following 6 years of low-dose steroid replacement therapy for panhypopituitarism secondary to a transsphenoidal resection of a growth hormone-secreting pituitary macroadenoma. The patient presented with several weeks of right-sided hip pain and significant loss of function. X-ray and MRI showed bilateral osteonecrosis of the hips with the right side more severely affected than the left. He was initiated on analgesics and bisphosphonates and underwent right hip total arthroplasty followed 1 year later by left hip arthroplasty. Postsurgery, the patient is mobilising well and his pituitary hormones are well balanced. He continues on low-dose glucocorticoid replacement which will continue lifelong.

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.
