Abstract
Hemifacial spasm (HFS) causes both physical and psychological disabilities that significantly impact quality of life. Medical management with serial botulinum toxin injections provides transient spasm relief and is widely reported as highly effective, as compared to no treatment. While there is an excellent potential for disease cure with microvascular decompression (MVD) surgery, utilization rates remain very low in North America (approximately 10%) and many patients are not adequately informed of this surgical option. Although the majority of MVD neurosurgeons maintain a low annual case volume, excellent safety and success rates can be achieved with attention to technical nuances and anatomical appreciation of the target facial root exit zone. Attention to better informing patients and optimizing surgical outcomes should lead to a greater role for neurosurgery in the treatment and cure of HFS.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
