Abstract
BACKGROUND: Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis (AAV) is an immune-mediated disease characterized by Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody (ANCA) positivity. Patients with AAV are known to be at high risk for the occurrence of Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD). The authors aimed to explore the risk factors in patients with AAV-ILD to enhance awareness among the public and healthcare providers, and to facilitate the timely adoption of effective strategies for prevention and management. METHODS: The authors searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database (CNKI), the WanFang Database, Chinese biomedical literature service system (SinoMed), and China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP) for studies that focused on the risk factors in patients with AAV-ILD from database inception to 21 September 2024. Methodological quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). The authors used a random-effects model or a fixed-effects model to evaluate the underlying risk factors of AAV-ILD. RESULTS: A total of 25 studies were included, including 13 case-control studies, 5 cohort studies, and 7 cross-sectional studies, respectively. The authors identified preliminary risk factors for AAV-ILD, including age, male, smoking history, KL-6, ESR, MPO-ANCA, cough, dyspnea, and HRCT findings such as honeycombing, interlobular septal thickening, and lattice shadows, Ear, nose & throat involvement, Hb, alb, BVAS, and fever. The study design type, follow-up (time), Country, sample, type of AAV, quality score, and were initially considered not to be sources of heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS: This study has preliminarily identified multiple risk factors associated with ILD in AAV patients, encompassing sociodemographic, lifestyle, and clinical factors. While these findings may serve as a reference for further investigation, large-scale prospective cohort studies or longitudinal research remain necessary for validation.

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
