Perinatal outcome and prognostic factors of fetal megacystis diagnosed at 11–14 week's gestation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate aneuploidy rate, prognostic factors, and perinatal outcomes following a diagnosis of fetal megacystis at 11-14 week's gestation. METHODS: A retrospective study of first trimester fetal megacystis from 2010 to 2020 was performed, including ultrasound finding, perinatal outcomes, pathology reports, genetic tests, and neonatal investigations. RESULTS: A total of 98 cases of first trimester fetal megacystis was identified with an overall aneuploidy rate of 12%. There were 54% live births and 46% fetal losses including spontaneous fetal demise and elective termination. Among the 45 fetal losses, 64% had additional structural abnormalities at index ultrasound and final diagnoses were achievable in 64% cases. Among the 53 livebirths, additional ultrasound abnormalities were detected in only 1 fetus and spontaneous resolution of megacystis was detected in 96% of cases. The two cases where fetal megacystis persisted had major postnatal diagnoses: cloacal malformation and megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome, respectively. Our data showed LBD ≥ 12 mm was the best individual predictor of adverse perinatal outcome and all 11 cases of lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) were diagnosed in fetuses with LBD ≥ 12 mm. CONCLUSIONS: First trimester ultrasound provides important prognostic factors and isolated megacystis <12 mm is associated with a positive outcome.

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.
