Abstract
Aseptic abscess (AA) syndrome is a rare inflammatory disorder often associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Cases of IBD-associated AA have been reported in Japan, India, and Canada, but rarely in China. Herein, we present the case of a Chinese patient with IBD-associated AAs and review the literature on AA with underlying IBD. We report the case of a 48-year-old male patient with multiple AAs on his left hand and lungs who was successfully treated with prednisone. He had undergone cutaneous abscess incision and drainage twice in the previous 2 years. The patient presented to our hospital with ulcerative colitis and pain in the dorsum of the left hand. Pus from his hand and blood cultures revealed sterile cutaneous abscesses. Chest computed tomography examination during hospitalization revealed a lung abscess. The AA was unresponsive to cefotiam or cefoperazone-sulbactam. The patient's left hand and lung conditions did not improve until prednisone was administered. The patient was followed up as an outpatient for 3 months and recovered without any clinical symptoms. We retrieved 17 cases of IBD-associated AA from the literature. None of the patients showed evidence of infection and failed antibiotic treatment, and all improved with corticosteroid use. AA may be an extra-intestinal manifestation of IBD. Effective medications include corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents. This case may increase the awareness of AA and aid in early identification.

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 it
