Abstract
PURPOSE: The primary aim of this study is to estimate the association of hepatic steatosis in patients diagnosed with Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). METHODS: Patients with AMD and without secondary causes of chronic liver disease, alongside age- and sex-matched controls were recruited. Hepatic steatosis was determined via ultrasound imaging, and metabolic risk factors were collected using standardized surveys. RESULTS: A total of 98 patients were recruited (49 cases, 49 controls). Hepatic steatosis was observed in 51.0% of the AMD group compared to 30.6% in controls, a statistically significant difference (χ2(1) = 4.224, p = 0.040). In multivariable models, dyslipidemia and diabetes were the strongest predictors, with association of steatosis attenuated but still significant (OR 2.36, 95% CI 1.03-5.40, p = 0.049). CONCLUSION: This study suggests an association between AMD and the prevalence of hepatic steatosis, after controlling for metabolic risk factors.

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 it
