Abstract
Sweet’s syndrome, also known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is an uncommon dermatological condition characterized by sudden onset, painful, erythematous/violaceous papules, plaques and ulcers, and specific histopathologic findings. Ulcers commonly present on the trunk, neck, hands and typically respond to systemic corticosteroid treatment. Here, we present a case of a 63-year-old woman with Sweet’s syndrome that presented with a thumb ulcer resembling a soft tissue infection. The thumb lesion was refractory to management for an infection and tissue pathology was consistent with a Sweet’s lesion. The patient was intolerant to first line therapy of oral prednisone, but the lesion was initially responsive to topical clobetasol and maintenance therapy of oral dapsone. This case emphasizes the importance of a careful history, examination, workup and maintaining a broad differential diagnosis to prevent misdiagnosis. We also demonstrate the potential effectiveness of initial topical treatment for problematic Sweet’s lesions when systemic steroids are contraindicated.

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
