Comparative study on the clinical pain features between acute and chronic temporomandibular disorders in TMD patients
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objective: To compare the clinical features between the patients with acute and chronic temporomandibular disorders(TMD).Methods: 30 patients with acute TMD and 38 with chronic were included in group acute and chronic respectively.Visual analog scale(VAS) and short-form mcgill questionnaire(SF-MPQ) were administered to assess the intensity,sensation and affection of the pain.Results: There was no statistical difference in the VAS scores between males and females or between acute and chronic TMD patients at rest(P0.05).In the females,acute group had a higher VAS score than chronic group during function(P0.05).Acute TMD patients often used swelling pain,tenderness,tingle and continuous pain to describe their pain,while the chronic ones prefered swelling pain,spasm,colic pain,continuous pain more.15 patients with acute TMD felt afraid and weak,while 29 patients with chronic TMD felt irritating and weak.Conclusion: Pain intensity in acute and chronic TMD patients is generally slight to moderate,sensation and affection of chronic TMD patients are different from acute ones.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
