Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Aims: to test the hypothesis that a semi-supervised home physical exercise program improves the functional mobility and quality of life (QOL) of elderly in the community. Methods: This trial was conducted with elderly people (88% female), aged 60 years or older, sedentary and without cognitive decline. Elderly were randomly assigned to an intervention group - IG (home physical exercise and sleep hygiene) and a control group - CG (sleep hygiene). Were applied the International Questionnaire on Physical Activity; mental state mini-exam and the Timed Up and Go test (TUG) before and after the 12-week intervention period. Results: The IG showed an improvement in functional mobility, with a mean reduction in TUG execution time (p <0.01) and improvement in the QOL, (p <0.01) in WHOQOL-OLD. Conclusion: Semi-supervised physical home exercise is effective in improving the functional mobility and the QOL of sedentary elderly in the community.

Not 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.
