Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Lemierre’s syndrome is a rare condition that involves septic thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein (IJV) most commonly as a complication of oropharyngeal bacterial infections. It is even more rare in association with infection following third molar extraction. A 17-year-old male developed septic osteomyelitis with Moraxella osloensis bacteremia and Lemierre’s syndrome resulting in complete occlusion of the IJV following routine third molar extraction. The patient required urgent operative debridement of the mandible as well as long-term antibiotics to treat the osteomyelitis and anticoagulant therapy to treat the IJV occlusion. The patient made a complete recovery. Clinicians should be aware that Lemierre’s syndrome can complicate mandibular osteomyelitis. • We present a rare case of a 17-year-old who developed Lemierre’s syndrome following sepsis from mandibular osteomyelitis after third molar extraction • The patient was treated with urgent operative debridement as well as long-term antibiotics and anticoagulant therapy and made a complete recovery

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.
