Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Intussusception is a leading cause of acute intestinal obstruction in infants, typically presenting with a classic triad of intermittent abdominal pain, vomiting, and currant jelly stools. However, atypical presentations can lead to diagnostic delays, increasing the risk of complications. This report describes a seven-month-old male with an unusual presentation of lethargy and irritability, without overt gastrointestinal symptoms. Initial clinical examination, including abdominal palpation and laboratory tests, was inconclusive. However, abdominal ultrasonography revealed a subtle "target sign," confirming intussusception despite the absence of hallmark signs. The patient underwent successful hydrostatic reduction under fluoroscopic guidance, with no pathological lead points identified. The case highlights the importance of maintaining clinical suspicion for intussusception in atypical presentations, emphasizing the critical role of early imaging in achieving timely diagnosis and favorable outcomes. Additionally, it underscores the need for vigilant post-reduction monitoring and parental education regarding recurrence.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
