Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to determine possible distinctive features of facial pain when caused by chronic sinusitis and to validate the pain characteristics previously described in the literature. METHODS: Included were 82 patients with radiographic and endoscopic evidence of chronic sinusitis and significant facial pain who underwent functional endoscopic sinus surgery and were available for 1-year follow-up. A modified McGill pain questionnaire was filled out before surgery, and follow-up data were obtained at 1 year. RESULTS: At 1 year 38% of patients had persistent facial pain despite the lack of any evidence of persistent sinusitis. A consistent use of pain adjectives and other distinctive features was noted in patients reporting improvement of headache. There was no correlation between the severity of pain and the extent or location of mucosal disease. The site of pain did not correlate with the site of disease. CONCLUSIONS: Sinusitis-related pain has distinctive features that set it apart from primary headache disorders and other causes of facial pain. Nonsinus causes account for the headache in 1 of 3 patients undergoing sinus surgery.

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.
