Frailty syndrome in dialysis patients: one dialysis center study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Aim of the study. To analyze the rate of frailty syndrome among chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients (pts.) and it's association with outcomes. Objectives: 1. To evaluate the rate of frailty in chronic HD pts. 2. To assess relation of frailty to hospitalisation and mortality in chronic HD pts. Methods. A retrospective analysis of clinical data (evaluation of the Edmonton Frail Scale) was performed. Results. In total, 60 HD pts. (70% male and 30% female) participated in our study. The mean age of pts. was 60.1 ± 13.6 years and the median duration of HD was 69 mo (52.5-90). Rate of frailty was 46.7% (n = 28) Older age directly correlated with frailty ( p = 0.01 R = 0.305 ) . The hospitalization rate > 2 times per year directly correlated with the total score of the Edmonton Frail Scale higher results were observed in comparison with non-hospitalized pts. (6 (5-9) vs 5 (3-6); P = 0.037 ) During follow-up period of 45 mo, 18 (30%) patients died, more than a half of them (n = 10; 55.6%) had frailty, but there was no significant correlation between frailty and mortality (p > 0.05) . Conclusions. 1. Rate of frailty prevalence was 46.7% of patients: slight - 31.7%, moderate - 8.3% and severe 6.7%. 2. The significant direct correlation between higher total frailty score and higher hospitalisation rate was found (p = 0.037) but there was no association between frailty and mortality (p = 0.534) .

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.
