Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Background: Gangliocytomas are rare neuronal tumors with an incidence of less than 1% of all CNS neoplasms. They are mostly seen in the pediatric age group, localizing within the cerebral cortex, most often the temporal lobe. Methods: We report a case of an intracranial gangliocytoma arising within the lateral ventricle in an adult patient. Our 66-year-old female patient started experiencing progressive generalized weakness, headaches, and confusion prior to presentation. Her neurological examination did not reveal any focal neurological deficits. MRI of the brain showed a diffusely enhancing lobulated mass situated within the frontal horn of the right lateral ventricle with extension into the foramen of Monro and obstructive hydrocephalus. Results: The patient underwent an interhemispheric trans-callosal approach with gross total resection and relief of her hydrocephalous. Pathological examination showed clusters of highly pleomorphic neuron-like cells without evidence of neoplastic glial cells. Histopathological and immunohistochemistry findings were consistent with the diagnosis of gangliocytoma (World Health Organization grade 1). Conclusions: Gangliocytomas are rare low-grade CNS neoplasms that can present in an older population within unusual locations and should be included within the differential whenever a suspicious lesion is encountered.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
