      "condition_origin": "These are evidence conditions for the existing subquestion of improved dry-eye symptoms over existing care. They do not establish preregistration, execution of an official assessment tool or completed clinical content review.",
      "proposed_research": "Material needed: The parent's 46 points are not assigned as a subclaim score, and the historical evidence date is not changed into a new search, external reading or completed-review date. New material, condition revisions and verdict changes are separate events. This records needed materials; no new research was executed."
