RP2 X-LINKED RETINITIS PIGMENTOSA CARRIER STATE PRESENTING WITH VASCULAR LEAKAGE AND UNILATERAL MACULAR ATROPHY
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: We describe the unusual clinical presentation of a 33-year-old woman subsequently identified as a carrier of RP2-associated X-linked retinitis pigmentosa. METHODS: Case report. RESULTS: A 33-year-old woman without a known family history of retinal disease presented with unilateral reduced visual acuity and central scotoma in the left eye. Examination showed underlying macular atrophy in the left eye and a bilateral tapetal-like reflex. Full-field electroretinogram was abnormal in the left eye but normal in the right eye. Notable findings on wide-field imaging included bilateral peripheral vascular leakage on fluorescein angiography and a bilaterally symmetric radial pattern of hyperfluorescence on fundus autofluorescence. Genetic testing demonstrated a pathogenic variant in the gene RP2 confirming that she was a carrier of X-linked retinitis pigmentosa. CONCLUSION: We describe clinical features of the carrier state of RP2-XLRP and expand potential findings to include peripheral vascular leakage. This case highlights the importance of awareness of the carrier state, particularly if a family history cannot be provided.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
