The relationship between the severity of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Introduction: Given the prevalence of obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD), we investigated the association between the severity of OCD and Alzheimer's and frontotemporal dementia. Method: This case-control study included patients referred to the dementia clinic of Firoozgar Hospital and the Brain and Cognition Clinic, who had a Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) test score less than 26 based on assessments of known Alzheimer's or frontotemporal dementia. The control group also consisted of people who referred to the neurology clinic without complaining of psychiatric disorders. For evaluating the severity of OCD we used the Yale – Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) questionnaire. Results: This study was performed on 13 patients with Alzheimer's disease, 13 patients with FTD and 26 healthy controls. The MOCA score in the two groups of patients was significantly lower than the control group (P <0.001) and is was not statistically significant between the two groups (P> 0.05). The severity of OCD was significantly higher in FTD )25.76±7.16 (and Alzheimer's patients )18.15±9.50( compared to the control group (7.07±5.70) (P <0.001). Also, the severity of OCD was was higher in the FTD group compared to the Alzheimer's group (P = 0.03). Conclusion: Thus, the severity of OCD in the group of FTD and Alzheimer's patients was higher compared to the control group and also the severity of OCD was higher in the FTD group compared to the Alzheimer's group.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
