Silent Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura: PLASMIC, Lessons Learned, and Current Management Overview
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare, life-threatening autoimmune or hereditary thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) that may be difficult to recognize given the wide spectrum of presenting symptoms. The clinical diagnosis of TTP is based on thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia and is confirmed by a disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type one motif, member 13 (ADAMTS13) <10%. However, the latter confirmation is not rapidly available, and treatment is typically initiated based on the degree of clinical suspicion. The PLASMIC score was recently developed to distinguish between TMA patients with and without severe ADAMTS13 deficiency and used as an adjunct in the diagnosis of TTP when the clinical picture is not clear. Here we present the case of a completely asymptomatic female with no past medical history diagnosed with TTP after evaluation for thrombocytopenia found on a routine wellness visit. A high PLASMIC score was crucial in the decision to initiate treatment given an unusual asymptomatic presentation.

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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
