Triple semicircular canal occlusion for the treatment of Ménière's disease
Bibliographic record
Abstract
CONCLUSION: Triple semicircular canal occlusion (TSCO) controls vertigo, is easy to perform, and could be used as an alternative procedure for the treatment of Meniere's disease in selected patients who complain mainly of intractable vertigo. OBJECTIVE: To seek an effective alternative surgical procedure for treating Ménière's disease in selected patients with intolerant rotational vertigo. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Three patients with Ménière's disease who underwent unsuccessful endolymphatic sac decompression or mastoid shunt, then underwent TSCO. Vertigo control and vestibular and auditory function were measured. RESULTS: The early vestibular symptoms caused by surgery resolved quickly and no hearing deterioration occurred after surgery. At the end of the follow-up period, based on the AAO-HNS criteria, two cases had complete control of vertigo (class A) and the other had substantial control of vertigo attacks (class B). Hearing was similar to the preoperative level at the end of the follow-up period.

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.
