Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Background: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT)most commonly affects younger women. Diagnosis may be delayed due to its distinct presentation and demographic profile compared to other stroke types. Methods: We examined delays to diagnosis of CVT in the SECRET randomized trial and TOP-SECRET parallel registry. Adults diagnosed with symptomatic CVT within <14 days were included. We examined time to diagnosis and number of health care encounters prior to diagnosis and associations with demographics, clinical and radiologic features and functional and patient-reported outcomes (PROMS) at days 180&365. Results: Of 103 participants, 68.9% were female; median age was 45 (IQR 31.0-61.0). Median time from symptom onset to diagnosis was 4 (1-8) days. Diagnosis on first presentation to medical attention was made in 60.2%. The difference in time to diagnosis for single versus multiple presentations was on the order of days (3[1-7] vs. 5[2-11.75], p=0.16). Women were likelier to have multiple presentations (OR 2.53; 95% CI1.00-6.39; p=0.05) and longer median times to diagnosis (5[2-8]days vs. 2[1-4.5] days; p=0.005). However, this was not associated with absolute or change in functional, or any patient reported, outcome measures (PROMs) at days 180&365. Conclusions: Diagnosis of CVT was commonly delayed; women were likelier to have multiple presentations. We found no association between delayed diagnosis and outcomes.

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.
