DSM-5-TR Diagnostic Mappings
Diagnostic category references for threat modeling, not diagnostic claims.
Pathway: I0 (electrodes) → N1-N2 (cortical tissue) → cumulative excitability shift → seizure threshold change
Following Poldrack (2006), brain region disruption does not uniquely predict psychiatric outcomes.

Population Vulnerability
CRB vulnerability adjustment (γ=0.30) accounts for age, diagnosis severity, consent capacity, and device dependency.
| Population | NISS Base | Adjusted | Severity | Delta |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adult (Default) | 5.7 | 5.7 | Medium | - |
| Child (10yr) + ADHD | 5.7 | 6.7 | Medium | +1.00 |
| Adult with ALS | 5.7 | 6.6 | Medium | +0.92 |
