Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Ciliopathies are associated with a range of phenotypes including retinal degeneration and skeletal abnormalities. We present a retrospective study of 49 patients with variants in Cilia and Flagella Associated Protein 410 (CFAP410) from multiple ophthalmic centers across the world. Common clinical features included early-onset reduced visual acuity, photophobia, and delayed light-to-dark adaptation. A cone-rod dystrophy pattern was observed roughly two times more commonly than rod-cone dystrophy. A minority of patients (22.4%) presented with skeletal abnormalities consistent with axial spondylometaphyseal dysplasia (SMDAX). Patients with the most severe ophthalmic and skeletal phenotypes had disease-associated variants within conserved leucine-rich regions of CFAP410, and the structural effects of these variants were modelled using ChimeraX. This report furthers our understanding of CFAP410-associated clinical phenotypes such as retinal dystrophy and skeletal dysplasia.

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.
