Abstract
A case of Rasmussen's disease with bilateral involvement in a five-year-old girl is reviewed.Rasmussen's disease is a rare progressive encephalitis that causes intractable seizures, cognitive decline, and inflammatory changes in brain.The neurological involvement is characteristically unilateral.Bilateral involvement in this case was suspected within five months of presentation and was confirmed by bilateral frontal lobe biopsies.The severity and progression of the disease in this case was remarkable and resulted in the patient's death by age five, despite numerous attempted therapeutic interventions.Autopsy findings confirmed the diagnosis of Rasmussen's encephalitis with bilateral involvement.The Forty-First Annual Meeting of the Canadian Association of Neuropathologists was held from September 13-15, 2001 at the Fédération des Médecins Spécialistes du Québec in Montreal, Quebec.Local arrangements were coordinated by Dr. Steffen Albrecht.The scientific sessions were comprised of 20 platform presentations and 10 diagnostic case presentations, organized under the following headings: Epilepsy and pediatric/ developmental disorders; Dementia and degenerative processes; Infection and inflammatory processes; Tumors and miscellaneous disorders.The Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada speaker was Dr.

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.
