Resolution of papilledema associated with cyclosporine use after change to tacrolimus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Use of medications including vitamin A derivatives and tetracyclines have been associated with papilledema and raised intracranial pressure. A 46-year-old woman was referred to neuro-ophthalmology for bilateral optic disc oedema and had a 7-year history of cyclosporine use after renal transplantation. She had preserved visual function and moderate bilateral optic disc oedema. Magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance venography of the brain were normal apart from signs of raised intracranial pressure. Lumbar puncture revealed an elevated opening pressure of 40 cm of water with normal cerebrospinal fluid contents. Nephrology was consulted and cyclosporine was switched to tacrolimus and she was treated with acetazolamide. The papilledema resolved within 1 month of her initial visit. It is important to recognise the role that cyclosporine plays in raising intracranial pressure, especially in patients requiring immunosuppression, such as transplant patients. Tacrolimus is a suitable alternative in these cases.

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.
