A new ocular motor sign in acute vestibular syndrome: Is HINTS plus enough?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A 66-year-old hypertensive and diabetic male presented with acute vestibular syndrome for three days. HINTS plus examination was performed. The horizontal head impulse test was positive on the left side. Video oculography showed centripetal nystagmus on gaze testing in the dark and test of skew was negative. There was no new hearing loss on the finger rub test. On neurological examination, he had severe postural instability and saccadic smooth pursuit. Radio-imaging studies were conducted to rule out the possibility of stroke. CT brain showed infarction in the territory of the medial branch of the right posterior inferior cerebellar artery. MRI brain confirmed the diagnosis. Thus, posterior circulation stroke can present with acute vestibular syndrome mimicking acute unilateral vestibulopathy. However, the presence of associated neurological symptoms like gait ataxia, centripetal nystagmus and vascular risk factors pointed towards a central cause. Clinical evaluation suggesting a peripheral lesion should never be taken in isolation and needs to be correlated with other associated signs. We describe centripetal nystagmus without fixation as a new oculomotor sign in acute vestibular syndrome.

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.
