Maintenance of Ankle Range of Motion in Children Treated for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In Brief Purpose This study documented ankle dorsiflexion range of motion (DF-ROM) in children during treatment for leukemia and studied the effects of preventative education and individualized intervention as a standard of care. Methods Active and passive DF-ROM were measured throughout a two-year treatment period and one year after treatment in 40 subjects. Children without health problems and historical controls who had not received therapeutic input were used for comparison. Results Active DF-ROM showed an average tendency to decline significantly during treatment, whereas passive DF-ROM did not. Both increased significantly following the end of treatment. There were substantial individual differences around these patterns of average change. Gender (female) was a predictor of negative change in DF-ROM during treatment. Average DF-ROM one year after treatment was significantly greater than for the historical controls and not significantly different from the healthy controls. None of the children required surgical intervention, in contrast to the historical controls. Conclusions Education and intervention appears to have improved DF-ROM outcome in children treated for leukemia. The study of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia demonstrates that a preventative education and individualized intervention were effective in improving ankle dorsiflexion range of motion in this clinical population and that ROM was maintained at a level comparable with a healthy control group one-year posttreatment.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
