Abstract
Amputee patients suffer high rates of chronic neuropathic pain, residual limb dysfunction, and disability. Recently, targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) and regenerative peripheral nerve interface (RPNI) are 2 techniques that have been advocated for such patients, given their ability to maximize intuitive prosthetic function while also minimizing neuropathic pain, such as residual and phantom limb pain. However, there remains room to further improve outcomes for our residual limb patients and patients suffering from symptomatic end neuromas. "TMRpni" is a nerve management technique that leverages beneficial elements described for both TMR and RPNI. TMRpni involves coaptation of a sensory or mixed sensory/motor nerve to a nearby motor nerve branch (ie, a nerve transfer), as performed in traditional TMR surgeries. Additionally, the typically mismatched nerve coaptation is wrapped with an autologous free muscle graft that is akin to an RPNI. The authors herein describe the "TMRpni" technique and illustrate a case where this technique was employed.

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
