Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided warm needle knife therapy for patients with advanced knee osteoarthritis (KOA). METHODS: A total of 70 advanced KOA patients were recruited from the Department of Pain and Rehabilitation of the Third Hospital of Wuhan from June 2020 to June 2022. They were randomized to a treatment group or a control group in a 1∶1 ratio. Patients in the treatment group received ultrasound guided warm needle knife treatment, while patients in the control group received ultrasound guided radiofrequency treatment of the knee sensory plexus, both for 1 time. The primary outcome was the changes in Western Ontario McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores. Other outcomes included the Visual Analogue Pain Scale (VAS) scores, value of Young's modulus of A-shi points, proportion of patients achieving improvement, and adverse events related to study interventions. RESULTS: <0.05). No adverse events were reported. CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasound guided warm needle knife is effective in improving the function of knee joint and relieving pain in patients with advanced KOA. Further, the long-term efficacy of ultrasound guided warm needle knife for advanced KOA was superior to the ultrasound guided radiofrequency therapy.

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.
