Adverse and compensatory neurophysiological slowing in Parkinson’s disease
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) exhibit multifaceted changes in neurophysiological brain activity, hypothesized to represent a global cortical slowing effect. Using task-free magnetoencephalography and extensive clinical assessments, we found that neurophysiological slowing in PD is differentially associated with motor and non-motor symptoms along a sagittal gradient over the cortical anatomy. In superior parietal regions, neurophysiological slowing reflects an adverse effect and scales with cognitive and motor impairments, while across the inferior frontal cortex, neurophysiological slowing is compatible with a compensatory role. This adverse-to-compensatory gradient is sensitive to individual clinical profiles, such as drug regimens and laterality of symptoms; it is also aligned with the topography of neurotransmitter and transporter systems relevant to PD. We conclude that neurophysiological slowing in patients with PD signals both deleterious and protective mechanisms of the disease, from posterior to anterior regions across the cortex, respectively, with functional and clinical relevance to motor and cognitive symptoms.

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.
