Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) is a fixed-dose antimicrobial agent used in a variety of infections. Hyponatremia secondary to the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone is an uncommon complication of treatment with TMP-SMX. The risk seems to be higher in patients with AIDS, elderly and concomitant use of diuretics. A n 88-year-old female was admitted to the hospital because of malaise and progressive confusion, 3 days after starting TMP-SMX for urinary tract infection. On physical examination the patient was euvolemic and had no evidence of malignancy, renal, cardiac, adrenal, hepatic or thyroid disease. Laboratory tests results revealed hyponatremia, low serum osmolality, urine hyperosmolarity and an elevated urine sodium concentration, leading to the diagnosis of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone. TMP-SMX was discontinued and fluid restriction was instituted. The patient was discharged after serum sodium increased from 124 mmol/L to 134 mmol/L. Two weeks after discharge the patient denied any malaise or confusion. TMP-SMX is very popular among elderly that presents with UTI. This paper is the first to emphasize this complication and the need of greater awareness among elderly population and suggest the sodium serum levels should be monitored closely during therapy with TMP-SMX.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
