Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A girl in middle childhood was referred to rheumatology with a 1-month history of progressive skull pain, preceded by fleeting musculoskeletal symptoms. Apart from a scaly rash on her scalp, she was well, with moderately elevated inflammatory markers. Skull imaging (radiographs, CT and MRI) revealed osteolytic lesions, soft tissue swelling and pachymeningeal enhancement at frontal and temporal convexities. Langerhans cell histiocytosis, bone infection/inflammation or malignancy was considered. Skin and bone biopsies eventually ruled out mimicking diseases and confirmed the diagnosis of chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO). She was treated with intravenous pamidronate (IVPAM) for 9 months, with rapid resolution of pain and gradual resolution of bony abnormalities. She remains in remission at 15-month follow-up. While CRMO can affect any bone, skull involvement is extremely rare, with a broad differential diagnosis. We recommend bone biopsy to confirm skull CRMO. The patient achieved excellent clinical and radiological response to IVPAM.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
