Abstract
Background. Spasticity is generally caused by damage to the spinal cord or the areas of the brain that controls movements, which poses significant limitations in occupational tasks. Objectives. The aims of the study were to (I) describe prioritized occupational performance problems (POPP) among patients who underwent upper limb spasticity-correcting surgery and map them to the International Classification of Function, Disability, and Health (ICF); (II) assess outcomes postsurgery; (III) assess whether the results are influenced by the diagnosis, gender, and residual muscle function; and (IV) assess correlation between changes in COPM and gains in grasp ability and grip strength. Methods. In this retrospective study, assessments occurred pre- and postsurgery, including the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM), grip strength, and grasp ability. POPP were transformed to prioritized occupational performance goals (POPG) during subsequent rehabilitation. Results. 60 patients with a history of spinal cord injury (SCI) ( <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M1"> <a:mi>n</a:mi> <a:mo>=</a:mo> <a:mn>42</a:mn> </a:math> ; 59%), stroke ( <c:math xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M2"> <c:mi>n</c:mi> <c:mo>=</c:mo> <c:mn>25</c:mn> </c:math> ; 34%), traumatic brain injury (TBI) ( <e:math xmlns:e="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M3"> <e:mi>n</e:mi> <e:mo>=</e:mo> <e:mn>4</e:mn> </e:math> ; 6%), and reason unknown ( <g:math xmlns:g="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M4"> <g:mi>n</g:mi> <g:mo>=</g:mo> <g:mn>1</g:mn> </g:math> ; 1%) were included, with a mean age of 57 (±13) years. Of those, 11 had bilateral surgery, generating 71 COPM forms and 320 POPG. The POPG were mapped to the ICF activity and participation chapter, most often to self-care ( <i:math xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M5"> <i:mi>n</i:mi> <i:mo>=</i:mo> <i:mn>131</i:mn> </i:math> ; 41%), domestic life ( <k:math xmlns:k="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M6"> <k:mi>n</k:mi> <k:mo>=</k:mo> <k:mn>68</k:mn> </k:math> ; 21%), and mobility ( <m:math xmlns:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M7"> <m:mi>n</m:mi> <m:mo>=</m:mo> <m:mn>58</m:mn> </m:math> ; 18%). COPM scores were significantly increased postsurgery, irrespective of diagnosis, gender, and muscle function. No clear correlation between COPM improvement and hand function gains was shown. Conclusion. Patients who underwent spasticity-correcting upper limb surgery identified difficulties with a wide range of occupational tasks that they considered as important to regain. Treatment-induced gains in occupational performance were significant but had no clear correlation with gains in grasp ability and hand strength. Independent of diagnosis, gender, and residual muscle function, it seems important to address the activity- and participation-specific aspects in the assessment and rehabilitation of patients.

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
