Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study objectives to investigate the influence of average energy intake at 1 week of hospitalization on prognosis for older adults with pneumonia. DESIGN Retrospective observational cohort study. SETTING The Japan Rehabilitation Nutrition Database comprise those with pneumonia in acute care hospitals. PARTICIPANTS The study included 329 pneumonia patients (aged over 65 years) who entered into the Japan Rehabilitation Nutrition Database (JRND) from November 2015 to March 2018. MEASUREMENTS Logistic regression analysis was performed to confirm the relationship of energy intake with the rate of mortality, discharge home, and pneumonia recurrence during hospitalization. Variables included in the multiple regression analysis model were age, sex, Mini Nutritional Assessment-Short Form score (MNA-SF) at hospitalization, A-DROP, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), and presence or absence of rehabilitation. RESULTS Of 315 patients with pneumonia (median age 85 years), 63.8% were men. 57.7% were assigned to the lack of energy intake (LEI) at 1 week after admission. Patients in the LEI group were older (p = 0.033), had higher A-DROP score (p < 0.001), and showed higher malnutrition rate in MNA-SF at hospitalization (p < 0.001) than those in the control group. Mortality, pneumonia recurrence (p = 0.001), median body mass index (p = 0.012), and low malnutrition in MNA-SF (p < 0.001) at discharge were significantly higher in the LEI group than in the control group. Logistic regression analysis showed that LEI was an independent risk factor for mortality (Odds ratio: 5.07, p = 0.002), discharge home (Odds ratio: 0.33, p = 0.007), and pneumonia recurrence (Odds ratio: 3.26, p = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS LEI at 1 week after hospitalization in older adults with pneumonia was an independent risk factor for mortality, difficult at-home recovery, and pneumonia recurrence. These findings suggest the importance of adequate energy intake from the early days of hospitalization.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To clarify the effectiveness of ward-assigned dental hygienists (DHs) on rehabilitation outcomes in rehabilitation wards. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING The registry data from the Japanese Rehabilitation Nutrition Database. PARTICIPANTS 656 patients with hip fracture or stroke admitted to convalescent rehabilitation wards. MEASUREMENTS The main outcome measures were the Functional Independence Measure (FIM), the Food Intake Level Scale (FILS), and the home discharge rate. Patients were divided into two groups based on the ward setting: with an assigned DH (DH group) and without an assigned DH (NDH group). Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compered between the groups. Between-facility differences were adjusted by generalized estimating equation. We performed post-hoc power analysis to confirm that there were enough samples included in this study to detect a significant difference. RESULTS Of 656 patients (mean age, 77 years; 57.1% female; 65.5% stroke) from 10 facilities, 454 patients (69.2%) from 4 facilities were in the DH group. FIM score at discharge (107 vs 90, P<0.001), percentage improvement in FILS score from admission to discharge (44.5% vs 22.8%, P<0.001) and home discharge rate (72.5% vs 61.4%, P<0.001) were significantly higher in the DH group than in the NDH group. After multivariate analysis, the FIM score at discharge (P=0.007), FILS score at discharge (P=0.024), and home discharge rate (P=0.007) were significantly higher in the DH group than in the NDH group. CONCLUSIONS ADL and swallowing function were significantly improved at discharge and the home discharge rate was higher among patients in rehabilitation wards with DHs. Having a ward-assigned DH may lead to better rehabilitation outcomes in rehabilitation wards.

Abstract
BixZnCo2−xO4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2) nanoparticles with different x values have been prepared by the sol–gel method; the structural, morphological, thermal and thermoelectric properties of the prepared nanomaterials are investigated. XRD analysis confirms that Bi is completely dissolved in the ZnCo2O4 lattice till the x values of ≤0.1 and the secondary phase of Bi2O3 is formed at higher x value (x > 0.1). The synthesized nanomaterials are densified and the thermoelectric properties are studied as a function of temperature. The electrical resistivity of the BixZnCo2−xO4 decreased with x value and it fell to 4 × 10−2 Ω m for the sample with x value ≤ 0.1. The Seebeck coefficient value increased with the increase of Bi substitution till the x value of 0.1 and decreased for the sample with higher Bi content (x ≤ 0.2) as the resistivity of the sample increased due to secondary phase formation. With the optimum Seebeck coefficient and electrical resistivity, Bi0.1ZnCo1.9O4 shows the high-power factor (α2σ550 K) of 2.3 μW K−2 m−1 and figure of merit of 9.5 × 10−4 at 668 K respectively, compared with other samples. The experimental results reveal that Bi substitution at the Co site is a promising approach to improve the thermoelectric properties of ZnCo2O4. Nanostructuring and Bi substitution have considerably increased the thermoelectric power factor and ZT of BixZnCo2−xO4; Bi1.9ZnCo1.9O4 shows a higher power factor than that of other Bi substituted samples.![]()

Abstract
OBJECT The SARC-F questionnaire is a sarcopenia screening tool. However, the validity of the SARC-F score ≥4 (SARC-F≥4) for the evaluation of sarcopenia in the hospital setting has not been investigated. This study investigated the validity of SARC-F≥4 as a screening tool for sarcopenia among hospitalized older adults. DESIGN Cross-sectional retrospective study. SETTING A university hospital. PARTICIPANTS This study included older adult patients (age ≥65 years) who were hospitalized at, and subsequently discharged from, the hospital between April and September 2019 and underwent a nutritional assessment by the nutrition support team during their hospitalization. MEASUREMENTS SARC-F was recorded at the time of admission, and the criteria specified by the Asia Working Group for Sarcopenia in 2019 (AWGS 2019) were applied to diagnose sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia. Appendicular muscle mass was estimated through validated equations, and three different models were developed for sarcopenia diagnosis. The sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative likelihood ratios were calculated to analyze the accuracy of the SARC-F≥4 for sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia. Receiver-operating characteristic analyses were conducted to calculate the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS In total, 1,689 patients (mean age: 77.2±7.3 years; male: 54.4%) were analyzed, and 636 patients (37.7%) had SARC-F≥4. Patients with SARC-F≥4 had a statistically significant higher prevalence of AWGS 2019-defined sarcopenia than patients with SARC-F <4 in the models (65.4-78.9% vs 40.9-45.2%, p<0.001). The sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative likelihood ratios of SARC-F≥4 for sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia were 49.1-51.3%, 73.9-81.2%, and 1.88-2.72/0.60-0.69 and 48.0%, 84.5%, and 3.11/0.62, respectively. The AUC for sarcopenia and possible sarcopenia were 0.644-0.695 and 0.708, respectively. The AUC of SARC-F for possible sarcopenia was equivalent to or larger than that for sarcopenia (DeLong test p=0.438, 0.088, and <0.001 vs the three models). CONCLUSIONS SARC-F≥4 is suitable as a screening tool for sarcopenia in hospitalized older adults. SARC-F assessment could facilitate the detection and exclusion of sarcopenia at hospitalization and may lead to early adoption of a therapeutic and preventive approach.

Abstract
Several algorithms have been proposed for modeling a gene regulatory network from a time-series expression dataset, but these have been used in relatively few studies because experimental cost often restricts the number of sampling time points to less than that of genes by more than one order of magnitude. In order to reduce the number of parameters for network modeling, we propose a method for grouping genes by both temporal expression pattern and biological function, modeling interactions between the gene groups by a dynamic Bayesian network approach. Results from applying the method to a gene expression dataset on human organogenesis demonstrate that more biologically plausible results can be obtained by modeling an interaction network for groups of genes than by modeling that for single genes.

Abstract
Long γ-ray bursts are associated with energetic, broad-lined, stripped-envelope supernovae1,2 and as such mark the death of massive stars. The scarcity of such events nearby and the brightness of the γ-ray burst afterglow, which dominates the emission in the first few days after the burst, have so far prevented the study of the very early evolution of supernovae associated with γ-ray bursts3. In hydrogen-stripped supernovae that are not associated with γ-ray bursts, an excess of high-velocity (roughly 30,000 kilometres per second) material has been interpreted as a signature of a choked jet, which did not emerge from the progenitor star and instead deposited all of its energy in a thermal cocoon4. Here we report multi-epoch spectroscopic observations of the supernova SN 2017iuk, which is associated with the γ-ray burst GRB 171205A. Our spectra display features at extremely high expansion velocities (around 115,000 kilometres per second) within the first day after the burst5,6. Using spectral synthesis models developed for SN 2017iuk, we show that these features are characterized by chemical abundances that differ from those observed in the ejecta of SN 2017iuk at later times. We further show that the high-velocity features originate from the mildly relativistic hot cocoon that is generated by an ultra-relativistic jet within the γ-ray burst expanding and decelerating into the medium that surrounds the progenitor star7,8. This cocoon rapidly becomes transparent9 and is outshone by the supernova emission, which starts to dominate the emission three days after the burst.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the impact of body mass index on activities of daily living in inpatients with acute heart failure. DESIGN A retrospective cohort study. SETTING A hospital-based database contains Diagnosis Procedure Combination survey data from 100 participating acute-care hospitals. PARTICIPANTS 11,301 inpatients aged 20 year or older who were admitted to the participating hospitals with a diagnosis of acute heart failure. MEASUREMENTS The Barthel Index score at discharge and hospital death. RESULTS The number of patients with a body mass index of <18.5 kg/m2 (underweight), 18.5-22.9 kg/m2 (low-normal weight), 23.0-24.9 kg/m2 (high-normal weight), 25.0-29.9 kg/m2 (overweight), and ≥30.0 kg/m2 (obesity) were 1689 (15%), 4715 (42%), 1809 (16%), 2306 (20%), and 782 (7%), respectively. Median Barthel Index scores at admission and discharge were 65 and 100, respectively. Hospital death occurred in 101 (0.9%) patients. Lower body mass index was associated with lower Barthel Index score at discharge and higher mortality. Multivariable analysis adjusted for body mass index, age, sex, New York Heart Association classification, Barthel Index score at admission, the updated Charlson Comorbidity Index, length of hospital stay, number of drugs administered, and rehabilitation during hospitalization revealed that body mass index was independently associated with Barthel Index score at discharge (beta: 0.354; 95% confidence interval: 0.248-0.461) and hospital death (odds ratio: 0.926, 95% confidence interval: 0.877-0.978). CONCLUSION Overweight and obese inpatients showed greater independence in activities of daily living at discharge and lower rates of mortality, indicating the obesity paradox. A combination of rehabilitation and improved nutrition seems to be important in underweight patients with acute heart failure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Due to the water-rich cooking process required to soften texture modified diets (TMDs), TMDs may have poorer nutrition. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between daily premorbid TMD consumption and nutritional status at the time of hospitalization, and its burden on hospitalization outcomes. DESIGN Retrospective observational study. SETTING An academic hospital. PARTICIPANTS The cohort comprised 3,594 older adult patients aged ≥65 years admitted to the hospital. MEASUREMENTS Patients were interviewed on admission using a premorbid daily consumption meal form to determine whether the patient ate a TMD. Nutritional status was examined using nutritional screening tools (Mini-Nutritional Assessment Short Form [MNA-SF], Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool [MUST], Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index [GNRI]) and the European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN)-defined criteria of malnutrition at admission. Length of hospital stay (LOS) and in-hospital mortality were considered outcomes of hospitalization. Multivariate analyses were performed to detect associations between premorbid TMD consumption and nutritional status and outcomes. RESULTS The mean age of the subjects was 75.9±7.0 years, including 58% males. Overall, 110 (3.1%) patients consuming a premorbid TMD were identified. They were older (p<0.001), had poor nutritional status (lower MNA-SF score [p<0.001] and GNRI value [p<0.001], higher MUST score [p<0.001], and more prevalent ESPEN-defined malnutrition [61.8% vs. 14.0%, p<0.001] than did patients without a TMD. The mortality rate and LOS of patients with TMD was higher (7.3% vs. 2.9%, p=0.017) and longer (19 days vs. 8 days, p<0.001) than those without TMD. Multivariate analyses showed that TMD consumption was independently associated with poor nutritional status and prolonged LOS after adjusting confounders. CONCLUSION Daily consumption of a TMD during the premorbid period affects nutritional status at the time of hospitalization and outcomes. Further studies are necessary to investigate whether nutritional intervention can improve outcomes for people on a TMD.
