Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

AIM: The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a web-based therapy programme, 'Move it to improve it' (Mitii(™)), in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) on occupational performance, upper limb function, and visual perception. METHOD: Participants (n=102) were matched in pairs and randomized to intervention (Mitii for 20wks; 26 males, mean age 11y 8mo [2y 4mo], Manual Ability Classification System level I=11, II=39, III=1) or control (standard care; 25 males, mean age 11y 10mo [2y 5mo], Manual Ability Classification System level I=13, II=37). Outcomes were the Assessment of Motor and Process Skills (AMPS), Assisting Hand Assessment, Jebsen-Taylor Test of Hand Function (JTTHF), Melbourne Assessment of Unilateral Upper Limb Function (MUUL), Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM), and Test of Visual Perceptual Skills (TVPS-3). RESULTS: Participants completed on average 32.4 hours of Mitii (range 3.7-74.7h). The Mitii group demonstrated significantly greater post-intervention scores than the comparison group on the AMPS, JTTHF dominant upper limb, COPM, and TVPS-3. The differences between groups were not clinically significant. There were no differences between groups on measures of impaired upper limb function. INTERPRETATION: Mitii delivers individualized, web-based therapy at home and has potential to increase therapy dose. Mitii can be considered as an option to enhance occupational performance and visual perception for children with UCP.

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.
