Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterised by motor complications that can become difficult to manage with disease progression. Certain medications used to treat PD, such as levodopa-carbidopa, can also cause motor complications. The timing and type of motor complication occurrence can provide important clues in determining the cause and help with treatment optimisation.This case report highlights the management of severe mixed dyskinesia in a critically ill PD patient admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). The patient experienced debilitating motor complications, requiring intensive monitoring and personalised levodopa-carbidopa dose adjustments. Following the optimisation of her regimen, which included increasing the frequency of lower doses and the addition of another agent, her motor complications improved. This report underscores the need for individualised treatment strategies in advanced PD and the benefit of ICU-level close monitoring to optimise PD therapy in patients with severe dyskinesias.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
