Pulmonary Mucormycosis in an Older Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patient
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Mucormycosis is a rare but fatal opportunistic fungal infection. Patients with hematologic malignancies who use immunosuppressant and glucocorticoid extensively are susceptible to mucormycosis. We report a case of an older patient with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who was infected with pulmonary mucormycosis during chemotherapy. With a good balance of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression and control of Mucorales infection, the patient got a complete remission of leukemia by the combination of azacitidine and venetoclax, and pulmonary mucormycosis was well controlled. But due to poor compliance, the patient died of asphyxiation as a result of aspiration of pulmonary necrosis-like substances after discharge. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of an older patient with AML complicated with pulmonary mucormycosis dying of asphyxia from pulmonary necrosis-like substances. Our article seeks to raise awareness of proper precautions to be taken in the management mucormycosis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
