Scoped audit evidence
These are source- and component-level audit summaries as of 3 October 2026. Access and comparison scope can differ by report; none certifies every result or the underlying raw data.

Limitations: Reliability excludes unmeasurable paretic grip; ongoing therapy and attrition limit generalization. No raw-data reanalysis. Current access does not certify historical reading.
