Tuberculosis Miliary in Patients Treated With Bacillus Calmette-Guerin Immunotherapy: Case Report
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), a live attenuated form of Mycobacterium bovis ( M. bovis ), is the most effective intravesical agent in the treatment of non-invasive bladder cancer. This therapy can cause minor complications like urinary frequency, fever, dysuria and hematuria, but it can also cause more serious systemic complications such as hepatitis, pneumonitis and sepsis. Miliary tuberculosis is a very rare complication of BCG immunotherapy and is associated to high mortality, thus this diagnosis must be early considered and early treatment should be implemented. The authors report a case of miliary tuberculosis after treatment with intravesical BCG, with isolation of M. bovis . The patient presented clinical and imaging improvement after initiation of tuberculostatic agents. J Med Cases. 2017;8(7):233-235 doi: https://doi.org/10.14740/jmc2862w

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.
