Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Endocrine mucin-producing sweat gland carcinoma (EMPSGC) is a rare, low-grade neuroendocrine neoplasm previously believed to be indolent in nature. There have only previously been six reported cases of metastases and none of thoracic structures. This case shows a metastatic EMPSGC in a 72-year-old male with a complex oncologic history and is the first reported case of metastases to the lung. As increased recognition of this entity continues to grow, it is important to consider it as part of the differential in mucinous and/or neuroendocrine neoplasms for appropriate management. This case adds to the oncologic literature by demonstrating a rare cutaneous neoplasm and emphasizing its metastatic potential.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
