Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Uterine torsion is a rare but critical obstetrical emergency that demands prompt diagnosis and intervention to optimise maternal and fetal outcomes. This case describes acute uterine torsion in a 27-week gestation patient, who presented with sudden onset abdominal pain and fetal distress. An emergency caesarean section was performed. A 360° levorotated uterus with a compromised lower segment was found. The uterus was rotated back to its anatomical position, and the fetus was delivered via a low vertical uterine incision. This report serves to increase awareness of uterine torsion as a differential diagnosis in obstetrical emergencies and provides a brief review of the literature on uterine torsion in a gravid uterus.

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.
