Postoperative Headache after Surgery for Vestibular Schwannoma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Postoperative headache was studied among 251 patients who underwent operation for vestibular schwannoma. A questionnaire based on the McGill Pain Questionnaire and the Finnish Pain Questionnaire was sent to the patients. Twenty-one expressions describing postoperative headache were extracted with a factor analysis. The pain intensity was expressed on a visual analog scale, and the risk factors for postoperative headache were evaluated. Immediately after the operation, 154 subjects reported headache. Eighty-nine of the patients had had headache before operation, whereas 65 patients experienced headache only after operation. An average of 8.9 years after surgery, 93 patients still reported headache. Headache was a major problem for 27 subjects; 18 of the 27 had suffered from headache before operation. A retrosigmoidal approach, postoperative gait problems, preoperative headache, and small tumor size predicted postoperative problems with headache. When headache is present before operation, it tends to continue after operation, and if headache continues for 1 year, it usually persists without being reduced.

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.
