Abstract
Although cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established treatment for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, 30 to 50% patients are non-responders. In this retrospective single-centre study, 19 patients underwent cardiac MRI pre-CRT, and global left ventricular (LV) strain and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) were measured by a blinded reader. LV reverse remodeling was independently assessed using transthoracic echocardiogram before and after CRT implant. Both LV strain and extent of LGE correlated significantly with measures of reverse LV remodeling (reduction in LV volume and improvement in LV ejection fraction). These findings suggest that CMR derived strain analysis and scar evaluation may be useful preimplant predictors of response to CRT. Larger prospective multi-center studies are needed to confirm these findings and to further evaluate the role of CMR strain imaging in guiding CRT treatment decisions.

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
