A case report of <i>Capnocytophaga canimorsus</i> meningitis with failure of ceftriaxone therapy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Capnocytophaga canimorsus is a gram-negative zoonotic organism that has the potential to cause devastating human infection. Historically, treatment with beta-lactams including penicillin and ceftriaxone has been effective. Methods: We describe a complicated case of C. canimorsus meningitis in a 70-year-old female following a superficial puncture wound from her dog’s teeth. Results: The case described here was complicated by seizures following treatment with ceftriaxone therapy. This case is also the first reported case of C. canimorsus meningitis associated with moyamoya disease and fibromuscular dysplasia. Conclusions: Physicians should be aware of the possibility of ceftriaxone-resistant C. canimorsus and have a low threshold to broaden antimicrobial coverage in the absence of clinical improvement. We also raise the possibility of an association between vasculopathies and unusual infections like C. canimorsus.

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.
