Dataset: Data from: WMH and long-term outcomes in ischemic stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between baseline white matter hyperintensities (WMH) in patients with ischemic stroke and long-term risk of dementia, functional impairment, recurrent stroke, and mortality. METHODS: Following the MOOSE and PRISMA guidelines (PROSPERO protocol: CRD42018092857), we systematically searched Medline and Scopus for cohort studies of ischemic stroke patients examining whether MRI- or CT-assessed WMH at baseline are associated with dementia, functional impairment, recurrent stroke, and mortality at 3 months or later post-stroke. We extracted data and evaluated study quality with the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. We pooled relative risks (RR) for the presence and severity of WMH using random-effects models. RESULTS: We included 104 studies with 71,298 ischemic stroke patients. Moderate/severe WMH at baseline were associated with increased risk of dementia (RR: 2.17, 95%CI: 1.72-2.73), cognitive impairment (RR: 2.29, 95%CI: 1.48-3.54), functional impairment (RR: 2.21, 95%CI: 1.83-2.67), any recurrent stroke (RR: 1.65, 95%CI: 1.36-2.01), recurrent ischemic stroke (RR: 1.90, 95%CI: 1.26-2.88), all-cause mortality (RR: 1.72, 95%CI: 1.47-2.01), and cardiovascular mortality (RR: 2.02, 95%CI: 1.44-2.83). The associations followed dose-response patterns for WMH severity and were consistent for both MRI- and CT-defined WMH. The results remained stable in sensitivity analyses adjusting for age, stroke severity, and cardiovascular risk factors, in analyses of studies scoring high in quality, and in analyses adjusted for publication bias. CONCLUSIONS: Presence and severity of WMH are associated with substantially increased risk of dementia, functional impairment, stroke recurrence, and mortality after ischemic stroke. WMH may aid clinical prognostication and the planning of future clinical trials.

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.
