Lesion network of oculogyric crises maps to brain dopaminergic transcriptomic signature
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Oculogyric crises are acute episodes of sustained, typically upward, conjugate deviation of the eyes. Oculogyric crises usually occur as the result of acute D2-dopamine receptor blockade, but the brain areas causally involved in generating this symptom remain elusive. Here, we used data from 14 previously reported cases of lesion-induced oculogyric crises and employed lesion network mapping to identify their shared connections throughout the brain. This analysis yielded a common network that included basal ganglia, thalamic and brainstem nuclei, as well as the cerebellum. Comparison of this network with gene expression profiles associated with the dopamine system revealed spatial overlap specifically with the gene coding for dopamine receptor type 2 (DRD2), as defined by a large-scale transcriptomic database of the human brain. Furthermore, spatial overlap with DRD2 and DRD3 gene expression was specific to brain lesions associated with oculogyric crises when contrasted to lesions that led to other movement disorders. Our findings identify a common neural network causally involved in the occurrence of oculogyric crises and provide a pathophysiological link between lesion locations causing this syndrome and its most common pharmacological cause, namely DRD2 blockade.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
