Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of sulfur metabolism. Clinical features generally include devastating neurologic dysfunction, ectopia lentis, and increased urinary excretion of sulfite, thiosulfate, and S -sulfocysteine. Missed diagnosis is not unusual because of variability in the sensitivity of the urinary sulfite and thiosulfate screening test. We present clinical, biochemical, and molecular data on two unrelated patients with isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency. The two patients belong to an Indigenous genetic isolate in Manitoba, Canada. Both patients (one male and one female, both now deceased) developed neonatal seizures and demonstrated progressive neurodevelopmental delay. Based on increased urinary excretion of sulfite, thiosulfate, and S -sulfocysteine and normal serum uric acid levels, sulfite oxidase deficiency was suspected. Both patients have a homozygous 4-bp deletion, 1347–1350delTTGT in the sulfite oxidase gene ( SUOX ), predicting a premature termination of the sulfite oxidase protein leading to absence of the carboxy-terminal third portion of the protein. This domain contains most of the contact sites essential for enzyme dimerization. This deletion mutation resulted in sulfite oxidase deficiency with early-onset severe clinical phenotype.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
