Palmar Striated Xanthomas in Clinical Practice
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Context: Palmar striated xanthomas (PSX) are macular subcutaneous lesions conferring a yellow-to-orange coloration of palmar and finger creases that characterize dysbetalipoproteinemia, a disease associated with sustained plasma accumulation of triglyceride-rich lipoprotein remnants. Although remnants accumulation may occur in any condition interfering with triglyceride-rich lipoprotein hydrolysis or clearance, the presence of PSX has not been systematically assessed across the spectrum of lipid disorders potentially associated with sustained or recurrent remnants accumulation. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the occurrence of (PSX) in a wide spectrum of lipid disorders ranging from very severe hypercholesterolemia (homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia) to very severe hypertriglyceridemia (chylomicronemia). Methods: statistic, whereas univariate analysis of variance or nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis was used for continuous variables. Results: A total of 5.1% (173/3382) of the studied patients presented PSX, a majority of them (67.1%) being women. PSX were observed in 18.8% of patients with dysbetalipoproteinemia and also among 14.1% of hypertriglyceridemic patients with partial lipoprotein lipase deficiency, 3.7% of patients with chylomicronemia, and in all those with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. Overall, 10.7% of patients with PSX did not meet dysbetalipoproteinemia diagnosis criteria. Conclusion: According to our study, the PSX prevalence estimate among patients without dysbetalipoproteinemia would be around 10% and they could be observed in a wide spectrum of lipid disorders associated with recurrent or sustained remnant lipoprotein accumulation.

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.
