Expanding the Molecular Genetic Landscape of Dystrophinopathies and Associated Phenotypes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background/Objectives: X-linked dystrophinopathies are a group of neuromuscular diseases caused by pathogenic variants in the DMD gene (MIM *300377). Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD; MIM #310200) is the most common inherited muscular dystrophy. Methods: We screened datasets of 403 male, genetically confirmed X-linked dystrophinopathy patients and identified 13 pathogenic variants of the DMD gene that have not been described in the literature thus far. For all patients we provide additional data on the clinical course, genotype–phenotype correlations as well as histological datasets of nine patients. In two cases, we used RNA-Seq analyses, showing that this method can be particularly helpful in cases of deep intrinsic variants. Results: We were able to show, that a combination of the different datasets is helpful to counsel families and provides a better understanding of the underlying pathophysiology. Conclusions: Overall, we elaborated upon the persistent challenge of determining the course of disease from genetic analysis alone, rather supporting the concept of a clinical continuum of dystrophinopathies with our combined clinical, histological and molecular genetic findings.

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.
