Abstract
Scoliosis is often a characteristic of an underlying syrinx. Surgical treatment, in particular instrumentation, of scoliosis in a child with an unrecognized syrinx may be associated with an increased risk of neurologic complications. The effect of syrinx treatment on scoliosis is yet to be clearly determined. Since 1976, nine children with scoliosis and a syrinx have been treated at a major pediatric referral center. Follow-up averaged 4 years 9 months. The average increase in curve size was 12° (range 2°–43°). The syrinx was treated operatively in five children. One child, who underwent foramen magnum decompression, required surgical stabilization of the spine. No neurologic complications were encountered. A compilation of reported cases in the literature was performed and analyzed. This analysis of 98 cases revealed that treatment of the syrinx resulted in no further progression of the scoliosis in 35 of 80 (48%) cases in which the curve history was reported. Surgical stabilization of the curve was required in 27 (31%) cases without neurologic complications.

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 it
