Position Statement of the Joint Committee on Children’s Hearing on Hearing Loss Associated with Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Congenital cytomegalovirus infection (cCMV) can cause a wide range of diseases in newborns, it is most often associated with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). cCMV is the leading cause of non-hereditary SNHL (up to 25% of all SNHL cases in). SNHL can be congenital and can have late-onset (up to 50% of cases) up to school age, it determines the risk of its late diagnosis. Children with cCMV should be referred for diagnostic examination even after successfully passed newborn hearing screening. The child remains under the dynamic audiologist’s follow-up, if the diagnostic examination results are normal. Management of children with confirmed hearing loss includes early auditory prosthesis; in cases of severe hearing loss and ineffective auditory prosthesis — cochlear implantation, speech-language therapy, parents training and informing.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
