<i>Brucella canis</i> in two juvenile labrador retriever littermates with no known travel history
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Two labrador retriever littermates presented separately to investigate chronic lethargy and shifting lameness. In both cases, clinical examination revealed a multi‐limb lameness. Neither the patients nor their dam or sire had a travel history outside the UK. Imaging of the vertebral column in both cases was consistent with discospondylitis. Brucella canis serology demonstrated a rising antibody titre in Case 1 and a strong positive antibody titre in Case 2 (4+/3200), consistent with a diagnosis of B. canis . Due to concerns relating to the poor prognosis, antimicrobial stewardship and zoonotic risk, both patients were euthanased. Since 2020, the UK has seen a rise in cases of B. canis , with most cases having been in imported dogs. This case report highlights how B. canis should be considered in dogs with no travel history and identifies challenges relating to diagnosis and managing these cases in practice.

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.
