Severe Acute Motor Exacerbations ( <scp>SAME</scp> ) across Metabolic, Developmental and Genetic Disorders
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Acute presentation of severe motor disorders is a diagnostic and management challenge. We define severe acute motor exacerbations (SAME) as acute/subacute motor symptoms that persist for hours-to-days with a severity that compromise vital signs (temperature, breath, and heart rate) and bulbar function (swallowing/dysphagia). Phenomenology includes dystonia, choreoathetosis, combined movement disorders, weakness, and hemiplegic attacks. SAME can develop in diverse diseases and can be preceded by triggers or catabolic states. Recent descriptions of SAME in complex neurodevelopmental and epileptic encephalopathies have broadened appreciation of this presentation beyond inborn errors of metabolism. A high degree of clinical suspicion is required to identify appropriately targeted investigations and management. We conducted a comprehensive literature analysis of etiologies. Reported triggers are described and classified as per pathophysiological mechanism. A video of six cases displaying multiple SAME with diverse outcomes is provided. We identified 50 different conditions that manifest SAME, some associated with developmental regression. Etiologies include disorders of metabolism: energy substrate, amino acids, complex molecules, vitamins/cofactors, minerals, and neurotransmitters/synaptic vesicle cycling. Non-metabolic neurodegenerative and genetic disorders that present with movement disorders and epilepsy can additionally manifest SAME. A limited number of triggers are grouped here, together with an approach to investigations and general management strategies. Several neurogenetic and neurometabolic disorders manifest SAME. Identifying triggers can help in certain cases narrow the differential diagnosis and guide the expeditious application of targeted therapies to minimize adverse developmental and neurological consequences. This process may inform pathogenesis and eventually improve our understanding of the mechanisms that lead to the development of SAME. © 2024 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

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.
