Abstract
This case report describes 2 siblings with myoclonic epilepsy who had novel mutations in the glutamine synthetase ( GLUL) gene: c.316C>T, p.(Arg106*) and c.42G>C, p.(Lys14Asn). Valproic acid improved seizure control, but was associated with hyperammonemic encephalopathy. Addition of carglumic acid reduced ammonia levels but drug coverage was declined. We therefore designed a protocol to measure the reduction in plasma ammonia in response to carglumic acid therapy. After the first dose of carglumic acid, Patient 1 showed a reduction in plasma ammonia levels within 3 hours, from 114 umol/L to 68 umol/L (reference 12-47 umol/L), and Patient 2 from 108 umol/L to 80 umol/L, which was sustained over a 2 week period. Overall, there was a strong negative correlation between plasma ammonia levels and carglumic acid levels (r = −0.86, p = 0.0013), and recurrence of hyperammonemic encephalopathy was not observed while the patients were taking carglumic acid.

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
