Uniparental disomy of multiple chromosomes in two cases with a complex phenotype
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Uniparental disomy (UPD) is the inheritance of both chromosomal homologs from one parent. Depending on the chromosome involved and the parental origin, UPD may result in phenotypic abnormalities due to aberrant methylation patterns or unmasking recessive conditions in isodisomic regions. UPD primarily originates from somatic rescue of a single meiotically-derived aneuploidy, most commonly a trisomy. Double UPD is exceedingly rare and triple UPD has not been previously described. Here, we report two unrelated clinical cases with UPD of multiple chromosomes; an 8-month-old male with maternal isodisomy of chromosome 7 and paternal isodisomy of chromosome 9, and a 4-week-old female with mixed paternal UPD for chromosomes 4, 10, and 14. These cases also demonstrate that although extremely rare, the detection of AOH on two or more chromosomes may warrant additional clinical and laboratory investigation such as methylation and STR marker analysis, especially when involving chromosomes known to be associated with imprinting disorders.

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.
