Abstract
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) results from defects in the differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells into mature T lymphocytes, with additional lymphoid lineages affected in particular genotypes. In 2014, the Primary Immune Deficiency Treatment Consortium published criteria for diagnosing SCID, which are now revised to incorporate contemporary approaches. Patients with typical SCID must have less than 0.05 × 10 9 autologous T cells/L on repetitive testing, with either pathogenic variant(s) in a SCID-associated gene, very low/undetectable T-cell receptor excision circles or less than 20% of CD4 T cells expressing naive markers, and/or transplacental maternally engrafted T cells. Patients with less profoundly impaired autologous T-cell differentiation are designated as having leaky/atypical SCID, with 2 or more of these: low T-cell numbers, oligoclonal T cells, low T-cell receptor excision circles, and less than 20% of CD4 T cells expressing naive markers. These patients must also have either pathogenic variant(s) in a SCID-associated gene or reduced T-cell proliferation to certain mitogens. Omenn syndrome requires a generalized erythematous rash, absent transplacentally acquired maternal engraftment, and 2 or more of these: eosinophilia, elevated IgE, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly. Thymic stromal defects and other causes of secondary T-cell deficiency are excluded from the definition of SCID. Application of these revised Primary Immune Deficiency Treatment Consortium 2022 Definitions permits precise categorization of patients with T-cell defects but does not imply a preferred treatment strategy.

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
