Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Objective: To evaluate the effects of 650nm-10.6μm compound laser on patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: Fifty-six patients with knee OA were randomly divided into compound laser group and RLED group (28 per group), receiving a 20-minute irradiation with 650nm-10.6μm compound laser or red light emitting diode respectively on acupoint Dubi (ST35) for 6 weeks, 14 times in all. This was a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical study; main outcome measures were Western Ontario and McMaster Universities’ Osteoarthritis Scale (WOMAC VA3.1) scores. In addition, patients’ global assessment was analyzed. Results: No difference of general data of patients was found in between-group comparison before treatment (P0.05),either of WOMAC scores (pain, stiffness and function, respectively) were found in between-group comparison (all P0.05). The WOMAC scores (pain, stiffness and function, respectively) of both goups reduced significantly compared with baseline after 2 or 6 weeks treatment and 4 weeks after treatment (all P0.01); Though there was no significant difference of WOMAC scores (pain, stiffness and function, respectively) between two groups (all P0.05), the reduce rate of the compound laser group was better than that of the RLED group. Neither the patients’ global assessment showed statistical differences between two groups (P0.05). Conclusion: 650nm-10.6μm compound laser was beneficial to patients with knee OA. But there was no statistical differences between the compound laser and the red light irradiation. Further study and a larger sample-size were required.

Teacher imitation

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.
