Abstract
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to prospectively assess changes in overall health-related quality of life and breast-related symptoms in women undergoing reduction mammaplasty, and to compare preoperative and postoperative health-related quality of life with that of the normal population. METHODS: Fifty-six patients were evaluated preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively with three questionnaires: the Short Form-36 Health Survey, the Symptom Inventory Questionnaire, and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale. Surgeons completed preoperative patient assessment forms, operative note forms, and postoperative patient assessment forms. RESULTS: Comparison of preoperative and postoperative health-related quality of life showed significant improvements in Short Form-36 Health Survey scores (p < 0.005), the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (p < 0.001), and all symptoms on the Symptom Inventory Questionnaire (p < 0.003). Preoperative mean Short Form-36 Health Survey scores were lower than in the normal population in several areas (p < 0.005). Postoperatively, none of the mean Short Form-36 Health Survey scores were significantly lower than population norms. CONCLUSIONS: This study determined that there is a significant improvement of physical symptoms and health-related quality of life in women undergoing reduction mammaplasty at 6 months after surgery. Before surgery, these patients have a significantly worse health-related quality of life than the normal population, but they normalize postoperatively.

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
