The ECG in Other Heart Diseases
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This chapter deals with the most important electrocardiographic abnormalities present in heart diseases other than ischemic heart disease and inherited heart diseases. The incidence of valvular heart diseases of rheumatic origin in developed countries is very rare and usually only found in immigrant populations. The chapter explains the most frequent electrocardiogram (ECG) findings and their clinical significance. In mitral valve prolapse, repolarization abnormalities are frequently found in II, III, aVF, and left precordial leads. Isolated aortic valve disease, except at advanced stages, is not typically accompanied by significant signs of left atrial enlargement or atrial fibrillation. Therefore, if these ECG signs are present in non-advanced cases, associated mitral valve disease must be suspected. Rheumatic fever is a systemic inflammatory disease whose target organ is the heart. The chapter deals with acute cor pulmonale, chronic cor pulmonale, and cases of primary pulmonary hypertension. The imaging techniques are more effective than ECG for diagnosing congenital heart diseases.

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.
