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.

Parkinson’s disease — balance

Latest listed audit check, current for its stated components. Later recovery/refinement here supersedes earlier access limitations only where explicitly stated; it does not resolve unrelated source contradictions.

Earlier audit check 1 (historical evidence record). Its access limitations are superseded wherever the latest check above explicitly closes them. Retained for the distinct components and provenance, not as a current access statement.
