Abstract
BACKGROUND: Stroke has multiple impacts on patients' sexual functioning, be it directly caused by the neurological lesion (s) or indirectly triggered via other psychophysiological processes. Despite a growing number of publications, sexuality is still rarely addressed in the stroke literature - yet, patients have indicated their need for sexual rehabilitation services. OBJECTIVE: To provide a literature review on post-stroke sexual functioning as well as available rehabilitation programs targeting patients' sexuality. METHODS: A systematic literature review was conducted on PubMed using the following key words and their combination: "stroke", "sexuality", "stroke characteristics", "hemisphere", "sexual", and "sexual dysfunction". RESULTS: Existing data suggests the existence of significant associations between stroke and male and female sexual dysfunction (SD) as well as desire/libido and sexual satisfaction. The exact contribution of patients' neurological profile (stroke laterality, location, and severity) on their SD remains inconclusive with research providing mixed findings. Psychological factors are shown to play a significant part in the development of patients' SDs. A few intervention programs have been developed to specifically guide health professionals when addressing patients' needs regarding their sexual recovery. CONCLUSION: Sexual rehabilitation needs to be an integrative part of stroke patients' rehabilitation process, preferably at the interdisciplinary level.

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
