Abstract
Objective. SAPHO (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis) syndrome is a type of rare chronic aseptic inflammation of unknown etiology. To date, no research to our knowledge has reported copy number variation (CNV) of genes that could affect predisposition to SAPHO syndrome. We investigated the association between CNV profile and SAPHO syndrome. Methods. We used array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) to screen for CNV in a nuclear family including 2 patients and a healthy control. We then validated the copy numbers of candidate genes found in the array CGH assay and other candidate genes by TaqMan real-time PCR in 360 case and control samples. Results. Ten regions from 8 chromosomes were found to have abnormal gene copies in the nuclear family, so the CNV of candidate genes ( ADAM5 , CSF2RA , IL3RA , and 9 other genes) were tested by TaqMan PCR. Significant copy number loss of CSF2RA (p = 0.000) and NOD2 (p = 0.005), and significant copy number gain of MEGF6 (p = 0.002) and ADAM5 (p = 0.000) were seen in patients with SAPHO compared with controls at the a = 0.05 level. There were no differences in the other 8 candidate genes between patient and control samples (p > 0.05). Conclusion. Our study established the first association between CNV in CSF2RA , NOD2 , MEGF6 , and ADAM5 and SAPHO syndrome. These findings may offer insight into the pathogenesis of SAPHO and provide the basis for improved diagnosis and treatment.

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
