Abstract
It has been proposed that subject-specific intracranial pressure (ICP) thresholds can be feasibly derived using the relationship between cerebrovascular reactivity and ICP. Such individualized intracranial pressure (iICP) thresholds have been suggested to have more robust associations with long-term outcomes of post-traumatic brain injury (TBI) than current guideline-based thresholds. However, both existing works have derived iICP using solely the pressure reactivity index (PRx) and a threshold of +0.20. Therefore, the goal of this study was to validate prior works and compare various cerebrovascular reactivity indices for their utility in deriving iICP. A custom iICP derivation algorithm was developed. Then, using existing archived human datasets from the Winnipeg Acute TBI Database, iICP thresholds were derived using three cerebrovascular reactivity indices: PRx, the pulse amplitude index (PAx), and the RAC (correlation (R) between the pulse amplitude of ICP (A) and cerebral perfusion pressure (C)). The yield of iICP derivation was found to vary significantly, depending on the cerebrovascular reactivity index and threshold used. A logistic regression analysis was then used to evaluate and compare the abilities of each index-derived iICP to predict the 6-month outcome. Among all index-threshold combinations tested, only PRx > 0 was able to produce an iICP that was able to outperform guideline-based ICP thresholds. PRx-based iICP seems to be superior to both PAx- and RAC-based iICP for predicting long-term outcomes. However, further work is needed to identify the ideal cerebrovascular reactivity thresholds for iICP derivation.

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
