Abstract
The widely documented problem of weight gain during adjuvant breast cancer chemotherapy has decreased in frequency and magnitude. However, adverse changes in body composition remain a problem. This study identified the frequency, magnitude, and patterns of weight and body composition change in a sample of premenopausal breast cancer survivors who were receiving 3 common chemotherapy regimens. The longitudinal study followed 76 women at 2 centers in Ontario, Canada. Measures were obtained at baseline, the start of every other treatment cycle and treatment completion. Participants' mean age was 44.1 years (SD = 5.9). Their mean baseline weight and body mass index were 69.3 kg (SD = 17.0) and 26 kg/m2 (SD = 6.6), respectively. Fifty-five percent maintained stable weights, while 34% gained and 10.5% lost weight. Their mean weight change during treatment was a 1.4-kg gain. Weight gainers and losers gained or lost 3 to 4 times as much fat as fat-free mass, respectively. A researcher's definition of "weight change" will influence the amount of weight gain reported, and the results of this study suggest that previous research may have overestimated the frequency and magnitude of weight gain in this population. Further research is needed to design interventions that match survivors' needs.

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
