Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Electroencephalography (EEG) can identify biomarkers of epileptogenesis and ictogenesis. However, few studies have used EEG in the prediction of poststroke seizures. Our primary aim was to evaluate whether early EEG abnormalities can predict poststroke epilepsy. METHODS: A prospective study of consecutive acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke patients, without previous epileptic seizures, who were admitted to a stroke unit over 24 months and followed for 1 year. All patients underwent standardized clinical and diagnostic assessment during the hospital stay and after discharge. Video-EEG was performed in the first 72 h (first EEG), daily for the first 7 days, in case of neurological deterioration, at discharge, and at 12 months after stroke. The occurrence of epileptic seizures in the first year after stroke (primary outcome) was evaluated clinically and neurophysiologically during the hospital stay and at 12 months. A telephone interview was also performed at 6 months. The primary outcome was the occurrence of at least one unprovoked seizure (poststroke epilepsy). Secondary outcomes were the occurrence of at least one acute symptomatic seizure and (interictal and/or ictal) epileptiform activity on at least one EEG during the hospital stay for acute stroke. The first EEG variables were defined using international criteria/terminology. Bivariate and multivariate analyses with adjustment for age, admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, and Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) were performed. RESULTS: = 0.043, respectively). No EEG abnormality independently predicted acute symptomatic seizures. However, the presence of periodic discharges on the first EEG was an independent predictor of epileptiform activity (p = 0.009) during the hospital stay. SIGNIFICANCE: An early poststroke EEG can predict epilepsy in the first year after stroke, independently from clinical and imaging-based infarct severity.

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
