"quote": "No existing single DOC recovery dataset simultaneously satisfies the wager protocol's minimum requirements: N ≥ 50 patients with ≥ 4 CRS-R assessments over ≥ 6 months with subscale data. The closest candidates (TRACK-TBI msTBI cohort, N=484, 4 timepoints, 12 months) lack CRS-R subscale data, using GOSE/DRS instead. The largest CRS-R DOC cohort identified (Porta et al., N=216) uses diagnostic categories rather than subscale trajectories. Published CRS-R trajectory studies (Luppi et al., N=39; Edlow et al., N=55) fall below the N≥50 threshold with sufficient longitudinal granularity."

"claim_text": "The recovery trajectory hierarchy wager protocol's minimum data requirements (N ≥ 50 patients with ≥ 4 CRS-R subscale assessments over ≥ 6 months) are not satisfied by any single existing publicly documented DOC recovery dataset. The three candidate datasets that most closely approach the requirements are: (1) TRACK-TBI msTBI cohort (N=484, 4 timepoints at 2wk/3mo/6mo/12mo, ~79 initial DOC patients) — meets N and longitudinal structure requirements but uses GOSE/DRS functional scales rather than CRS-R subscale data; (2) Porta et al. 2019 (N=216, follow-up at 12/24/36 months) — meets N but uses clinical VS/MCS/EMCS diagnostic classification rather than CRS-R subscale trajectory data; (3) individual CRS-R trajectory studies (Luppi et al.
