Thymoma-Associated Myasthenia Gravis With Myocarditis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Myasthenia gravis (MG) complicated by myocarditis is a rare autoimmune manifestation. We present a patient who initially presented with a suspected ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with angiographically normal coronary arteries. A chest CT scan revealed a large homogenous soft-tissue density anterior mediastinal mass suspicious of thymoma. Neurological deterioration in the hospital suggested a diagnosis of MG with subsequent electromyography and nerve conduction studies (EMG/NCS) and repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) confirmation. A cardiac magnetic resonance imaging study (CMR) demonstrated diffuse myocardial edema and severe left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and sub-epicardial late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) involving all basal and mid-LV segments in addition to apical inferior and lateral segments. A diagnosis of thymoma-associated MG with myocarditis was made and the patient was successfully treated with immunosuppression. This case highlights the association of myocarditis with MG as a potential complication that should be considered in patients with cardiac symptoms, ECG changes, or biomarker elevation.

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.
