Surgical outcomes following total Prolift: Colpopexy versus hysteropexy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Total Prolift(®) is a pelvic floor repair system that is performed transvaginally and can be carried out with or without the uterus in situ. AIM: To compare surgical outcomes following total Prolift colpopexy (TPC) and total Prolift hysteropexy (TPH). METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of women that underwent TPC (n = 65) or TPH (n = 24). Outcomes were compared between groups using Student's t-test, ANCOVA and Fisher's exact tests (P ≤ 0.05). RESULTS: There were no significant differences between TPC and TPH for all peri-operative variables. Patients were followed 6-12 months after surgery. Post-operatively, TPC patients had significantly higher pelvic organ prolapse-quantification (POP-Q) point C measurements (P = 0.05); however, all other POP-Q measurements were similar, including POP-Q apical stage of prolapse, with 99% in the TPC group and 92% in the TPH group at stage I or less. Post-operative mesh erosion, prolapse symptoms, surgical satisfaction, sexual activity and dyspareunia rates did not significantly differ between groups. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that TPC and TPH have similar surgical outcomes, except for vaginal vault measurements reflected by POP-Q point C.

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.
