Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Treatment Masking Hepatic Tuberculosis: A Management Dilemma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Acute promyelocytic leukemia is a form of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that is characterized by presence of a promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor alpha fusion. In most patients, this fusion is detected on conventional karyotype as the t(15;17)(q24.1;q21.2) translocation, but some patients have cryptic translocations with a normal karyotype. Historically, AML is associated with a poor prognosis. Treatment with all-trans retinoic acid and arsenic trioxide assures long-term survival in the majority of patients. This treatment is generally well-tolerated but may cause hepatotoxicity. This is usually identified by transaminitis but resolves after temporary cessation of treatment. Our patient's hepatotoxicity did not resolve following all-trans retinoic acid and arsenic trioxide cessation which posed a diagnostic dilemma. This prompted exploration of other possible causes of hepatotoxicity. An eventual liver biopsy identified acid-fast bacilli, confirming a diagnosis of hepatic tuberculosis. A broad differential diagnosis is imperative when investigating abnormalities in liver function, especially in chemotherapy patients when treatment cessation may cause cancer progression.

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.
