Abstract
BACKGROUND: Adult-onset myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a chronic, multisystem disorder that leads to disability and premature death. OBJECTIVES: The objective of our study was to conduct a systematic literature review of the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients with DM1. METHODS: We searched Embase, Web of Science, and PubMed for English language full-text articles reporting results from studies of HRQoL in patients with adult-onset DM1 published between 1 January 2000 and 21 February 2018. We excluded reviews, editorials, and studies reporting results for a sample with fewer than five patients (to allow for meaningful inference). RESULTS: The search identified 266 unique publications. Of these, 231 were excluded following title and abstract screening and 16 after full-text review, leaving 19 articles for data synthesis. We found 15 articles measuring the HRQoL of patients with adult-onset DM1 using the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), six using the Individualized Neuromuscular Quality of Life Questionnaire (INQoL), and one using Cantril's Ladder. Available evidence shows that patient HRQoL is impaired in DM1, mainly due to compromised physical health, but also reveals that substantial heterogeneity exists in estimates across studies. CONCLUSIONS: HRQoL in adult-onset DM1 has been extensively studied using the SF-36 and the INQoL, but current estimates are inconclusive, and little is known of the impact of the disease as measured using other instruments. Our data synthesis should help characterize the patient burden of DM1 and inform future studies of HRQoL in this indication.

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
