Abstract
Introduction: (LM) is a rare condition. Research question: We present a case of spontaneous LM spondylodiscitis with an epidural abscess in a middle-aged man, who reported no gastrointestinal infection. Material and methods: We identified 5 spinal infection cases due to LM in the literature, with 3 diagnosed as primary spondylodiscitis. Results: The patient was treated with surgical decompression, debridement, and antibiotic therapy. Blood cultures remained negative throughout the case and microbiological cultures were obtained during surgery. The patient developed side-effects of prolonged gentamicin therapy but made a recovery from his spinal complaints at 6-months follow-up. Listeriosis is a relatively rare food-borne disease with a wide spectrum of presentation. Surgeons should consider more aggressive therapy for spinal infections and recognize the uncommon manifestations. We identified 3 primary and 2 secondary LM spondylodiscitis cases in the literature. Antibacterial treatment of LM spondylodiscitis varied in agents and duration, but no side-effects were previously reported. Gentamicin treatment requires care and attention to complications. Discussion and conclusion: is a rare cause of primary spondylodiscitis. Further studies are needed to establish a safe treatment protocol for treatment with gentamicin and LM spondylodiscitis.

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
