Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS) is a subtype of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy. It may have cutaneous findings like psoriasis and dermatomyositis, making clinical diagnosis challenging. We report a case of a 49-year-old woman who presented with initial symptoms of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis: scaly patches on the scalp, scaly patches on the elbows, hyperkeratotic scaly plaques on her palms, and inflammatory joint symptoms. However, the development of phototherapy-induced flares and resistance to topical steroids prompted reconsideration of her diagnosis. Further investigations revealed the presence of anti-Jo-1 antibodies, which led to the diagnosis of ASyS. This case emphasizes the need for a broad differential diagnosis when evaluating psoriasiform skin changes, particularly in cases with atypical features or resistance to standard treatments.

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.
