Persistent Disease Activity in Patients With Long-Standing Glomerular Disease
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Glomerular diseases are characterized by variable disease activity over many years. We aimed to analyze the relationship between clinical disease activity and duration of glomerular disease. METHODS: = 362). Disease activity was defined by (i) Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes-recommended threshold criteria for initiation of immunosuppression in primary glomerulonephropathy (GN) and (ii) CureGN's Disease Activity Working Group definitions for activity. RESULTS: No significant differences were detected among the 3 cohorts in terms of age, sex, serum creatinine, and urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio. For each GN subtype, disease activity in the OLD cohort was comparable with disease activity in the entire CureGN and the CUMC-CureGN cohort. When limiting our comparisons to disease activity in incident CUMC-CureGN patients (first diagnostic biopsy within 6 months of enrollment), OLD patients demonstrated similar activity rates as incident patients. CONCLUSION: Disease activity did not differ among patients with shorter versus longer duration of disease. Such survivor patients, with long-term but persistent disease, are potentially highly informative for understanding the clinical course and pathogenesis of GN and may help identify factors mediating more chronic subtypes of disease.

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.
