Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

One hundred sixty patients (mean age, 68 +/- 8 years) having primary total knee arthroplasty were assigned randomly to two rehabilitation programs: (1) clinic-based rehabilitation provided by outpatient physical therapists; or (2) home-based rehabilitation monitored by periodic telephone calls from a physical therapist. Both rehabilitation programs emphasized a common home exercise program. Before surgery, and at 12 and 52 weeks after surgery, no statistically significant differences were observed between the clinic- and the home-based groups on any of the following measures: (1) total score on the Knee Society clinical rating scale; (2) total score on the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index; (3) total score on the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form; (4) pain scale of the Knee Society clinical rating scale; (5) pain scale of the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index; (6) functional scale of the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index; (7) distance walked in 6 minutes; (8) number of stairs ascended and descended in 30 seconds; and (9) knee flexion range of motion, on either the per protocol or the intent-to-treat or the analyses. After primary total knee arthroplasty, patients who completed a home exercise program (home-based rehabilitation) performed similarly to patients who completed regular outpatient clinic sessions in addition to the home exercises (clinic-based rehabilitation). Additional studies need to determine which patients are likely to benefit most from clinic-based rehabilitation programs.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
