A Rare Case of Severe Jaundice in a Panhypopituitarism Patient
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hyperbilirubinemia and transaminitis are rarely associated with a disorder of endocrine function. It mostly manifests as a cholestatic pattern of liver injury. Herein, a 25-year-old female patient with a past medical history of congenital hypopituitarism due to pituitary ectopia presented with serum direct bilirubin level of 9.9 mg/dL and aspartate transaminase (AST)/alanine transaminase (ALT) of 60/47 U/L. All tests for chronic liver disease imaging and liver biopsy were normal. She was found to have central hypothyroidism and low cortisol level. She was started on intravenous (IV) levothyroxine 75 µg daily and IV hydrocortisone 10-5 mg AM/PM. She was discharged on oral levothyroxine 88 µg daily and hydrocortisone orally 10 mg twice daily. Follow-up labs 1 month later showed completely normal liver function test. In conclusion, hyperbilirubinemia due to congenital hypopituitarism can occur in adults. Delayed recognition of underlying endocrine disorder as a cause of hyperbilirubinemia and hepatocellular inflammation can result in end-stage liver damage due to prolonged cholestasis.

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.
