Meta-regression of sulcal patterns, clinical and environmental factors on neurodevelopmental outcomes in participants with multiple CHD types
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Congenital heart disease affects 1% of infants and is associated with impaired neurodevelopment. Right- or left-sided sulcal features correlate with executive function among people with Tetralogy of Fallot or single ventricle congenital heart disease. Studies of multiple congenital heart disease types are needed to understand regional differences. Further, sulcal pattern has not been studied in people with d-transposition of the great arteries. Therefore, we assessed the relationship between sulcal pattern and executive function, general memory, and processing speed in a meta-regression of 247 participants with three congenital heart disease types (114 single ventricle, 92 d-transposition of the great arteries, and 41 Tetralogy of Fallot) and 94 participants without congenital heart disease. Higher right hemisphere sulcal pattern similarity was associated with improved executive function (Pearson r = 0.19, false discovery rate-adjusted P = 0.005), general memory (r = 0.15, false discovery rate P = 0.02), and processing speed (r = 0.17, false discovery rate P = 0.01) scores. These positive associations remained significant in for the d-transposition of the great arteries and Tetralogy of Fallot cohorts only in multivariable linear regression (estimated change β = 0.7, false discovery rate P = 0.004; β = 4.1, false discovery rate P = 0.03; and β = 5.4, false discovery rate P = 0.003, respectively). Duration of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest was also associated with outcomes in the multivariate model and regression tree analysis. This suggests that sulcal pattern may provide an early biomarker for prediction of later neurocognitive challenges among people with congenital heart disease.

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.
