The Effects Of Vitamin D On Muscle Strength And Functional Status Of The Elderly Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introductıon: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of vitamin D levels on pain intensity, muscle strength and functional status of elderly patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. Methods: Eighty one patients with osteoarthritis of the knee were enrolled in this study. The pain was measured with visual analogue scale (VAS). Western Ontario and McMaster University Arthritis Index (WOMAC) was used to evaluate pain, stiffness, and physical function. The maximum isokinetic muscle strength and the peak torque/body weight values were measured. Results: The patients were divided into two groups according to their 25 (OH) vitamin D levels: Group 1 consisted of patients whose 25 (OH) vitamin D levels were below 20 ng/ml and Group 2 comprised those with levels above 20 ng/ml. The VAS scores, the mean WOMAC pain, function and total scores were higher in Group 1 than Group 2. The maximal isokinetic muscle strength of extensor and flexor muscles of the knee and the peak torque/body weight values were significantly lower in Group 1 than in Group 2 (p

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.
