Abstract
Kratom is an herbal supplement used to relieve chronic pain or opioid withdrawal symptoms. Recent news articles covering adverse effects associated with kratom use have brought attention to its organ toxicities. Reports of kratom-induced hepatic toxicity are limited and only three case reports of kratom-induced liver injury with histopathologic examination of the liver biopsies are available. A 40-year-old female presented with symptoms of mixed cholestatic and hepatocellular liver injury without clear etiology. The laboratory and imaging workup suggested possibilities of autoimmune hepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis-primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) overlap syndrome, or drug-induced liver injury. Autoantibodies including anti-mitochondrial antibody (AMA) were negative. Liver biopsy showed granulomatous hepatitis with prominent duct injury, suggestive of AMA-negative PBC. She subsequently was referred to a hepatologist and a history of recent kratom use was finally revealed. Kratom was discontinued and the symptoms improved. Kratom-induced hepatic toxicity may manifest with variable biochemical and clinical abnormalities. Histologically, it may mimic AMA-negative PBC. Our case highlights the importance of thorough history taking, interdisciplinary approach and communication for optimal patient care.

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 it
