Weight Bearing Asymmetry and Functional Ambulation Performance in Stroke Survivors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study evaluated asymmetry of weight bearing on the lower limbs and the association between percentage weight bearing asymmetry (PWBA) and functional ambulation performance in ambulant stroke survivors. Participants were 53 stroke survivors (male = 35, female = 18) aged 40-86 years (mean=58.87; SD=9.21years) with hemiparesis. Weight bearing through the lower limbs in standing was assessed by two juxtaposed bathroom weighing scales while functional ambulation performance was evaluated with the Emory Functional Ambulation Profile (E-FAP). Data were summarized with mean and standard deviation and further analyzed using the Pearson product moment correlation at 0.05 alpha level. Participants bore 60.3% (SD =7.1%) of their body weights on the unaffected legs and had a mean PWBA of 20.8 % (SD=14.7%). There was a significant positive correlation (r = 0.675, p < 0.0001) between PWBA and total E-FAP scores of participants. PWBA could hence be used to monitor functional ambulation recovery in stroke survivors.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
