Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To examine the relative risk (RR) for living in nursing homes for patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) compared with the general population and to ascertain society's costs related to nursing home placement for this patient group. METHODS: We evaluated the frequency of admission to nursing homes in a cross-sectional study and during a 12-year follow-up study of 108 patients with PD and 864 controls who were matched for age and sex. The RR for living in a nursing home was calculated at baseline and during follow-up. On the basis of 2007 prices, we estimated the costs per person year of survival for patients with PD and controls. RESULTS: The RR for living in a nursing home at baseline was 5.0 for patients with PD and 4.8 during follow-up. Patients with PD caused 4.8 times higher costs for nursing home placement with euro 18 875 versus euro 3978 per individual and year. The annual costs for institutional care of patients with PD in Norway were euro 132 million. CONCLUSION: Patients with PD have a substantially higher risk for living in nursing homes than the general population. This causes high costs to society. Therapeutic interventions to prevent or delay nursing home admissions are therefore important.

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
