Abstract
BACKGROUND: Care partners support people with Parkinson's disease through a long journey ranging from independence to dependence for many daily tasks. Longitudinal studies are important to understand the evolution of this process and predictors of future needs of care partners. METHODS: A scoping review was conducted, searching PubMed for longitudinal studies examining care partner burden, needs or coping in Parkinson's disease published through May 2020. RESULTS: Eight observational studies and 19 interventional studies met the eligibility criteria. Longitudinal observation ranged from 7 weeks to 10 years, involving between six and 8515 care partners. All studies addressed care partner burden, while two and three studies respectively addressed needs and coping. Only one study related burden to specific stages or duration of disease. Results from identified studies show that care partners in Parkinson's disease are at risk for increasing burden over time. Multiple predictors of future burden have been identified related to the person with Parkinson's disease, the care partner, or an intervention. No studies examined the evolution of needs and coping in caregiving in Parkinson's disease. CONCLUSION: The scarcity of longer term, observational research on the temporal evolution of burden and particularly needs and coping in caregiving for someone with PD is a main identified gap. Even within these observational studies, the impact of caregiving is not often reported. Longitudinal studies on these topics are needed to help understand their change over time and relation to each other, which can inform support planning for care partners.

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
