Abstract
Objective To analyze whether sufficient energy intake (EI) improves performance of activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with hip fracture admitted to rehabilitation hospitals. The adequate amount of EI for improving performance of ADL in patients with hip fracture remains unknown. Methods This retrospective cohort study included all patients with hip fracture (n=234) admitted to rehabilitation hospitals in Japan. The inclusion criteria for this study were age >65 years and body mass index <30.0 kg/m2. Patients who were transferred to an acute hospital and those with missing case data were excluded. According to the amount of EI, the patients were classified into energy sufficiency and shortage groups (EI/total energy expenditure ≥1.0 and <1.0, respectively). The Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and FIM gain were used to evaluate the patient disability level and change in patient status in response to rehabilitation. Finally, FIM gain was calculated as the discharge FIM score minus the admission FIM score. Results The final analysis targeted 202 patients—53 (26.2%) were in the energy shortage group and 149 (73.8%) were in the energy sufficiency group. The energy sufficiency group had a greater FIM gain than the energy shortage group (mean, 25.1±14.2 vs. 19.7±16.4; p=0.024). Furthermore, sufficient EI in the first week since admission (β=0.165; 95% confidence interval, 0.392–5.230; p=0.023) was an independent factor of FIM gain. Conclusion Among elderly patients with hip fracture admitted to rehabilitation hospitals in Japan, the amount of EI during the first week after admission was an independent factor of FIM gain.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine the effect of improved nutritional status on activities of daily living (ADLs) and dysphagia in elderly patients with pneumonia who were admitted to acute care hospitals. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted using registry data from the Japan Rehabilitation Nutrition Database of patients with pneumonia who were admitted to acute care hospitals. Patients were divided into two groups based on the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short-Form (MNA-SF) status at discharge: Patients with no status change or with decreased status were allocated to the unimproved nutritional status (UN) group and those with increased status were assigned to the improved nutritional status (IN) group. The primary outcome was ADLs as assessed by Barthel Index (BI) score at hospital discharge. Secondary outcomes included dysphagia as assessed by the Food Intake Level Scale (FILS) at discharge. RESULTS The study included 143 patients with a mean age of 84.7 ± 7.8 y. Based on the MNA-SF categories at discharge, 127 (88.8%) patients were assigned to the UN group and 16 (11.2%) to the IN group. Patients in the IN group had significantly higher BI and FILS scores than those in the UN group. Multiple regression analysis indicated that improvement in nutritional status was independently associated with BI gain (B = 9.916; β = 0.153; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.929-11.761; P = 0.017) and FILS gain (B = 1.259; β = 0.167; 95% CI, 1.224-2.814; P = 0.044). CONCLUSIONS Nutritional improvement is associated with improvements in ADL and dysphagia in patients with pneumonia and malnutrition.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although fractional flow reserve (FFR) is a gold standard method to evaluate functional lesion severity in the catheterization laboratory, the need of hyperemic condition limits the widespread adoption of FFR. Recently, the resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) which was newly developed resting indices was launched. It is unclear whether RFR as resting condition could assess physiological lesion severity of coronary artery stenosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic impact of RFR compared to FFR in entire range of coronary artery stenosis.
Method
A total of 53 patients with 70 lesions were enrolled in this study. The RFR was measured after adequately waiting for stable condition, while FFR was measured after intravenous administration of ATP (180mcg/kg/min). Lesions with FFR ≤0.80 were considered functionally significant coronary artery stenosis.
Results
In all lesions, reference diameter, diameter stenosis, lesion length, RFR, and FFR were 3.3±0.8mm, 44±12%, 14.6±7.2mm, 0.90±0.11, and 0.83±0.11, respectively. Functional significance was observed in 24 lesions (34%) of all lesions. The RFR showed a significant correlation with FFR (y = 0.800x + 0.239, R = 0.817, p<0.001). The Bland-Altman plot demonstrated a good agreement with a mean difference of 0.07 and a standard deviation of 0.06 between RFR and FFR across entire range of coronary artery stenosis. ROC curve analysis showed an excellent accuracy of RFR cut-off of ≤0.90 in predicting FFR ≤0.80 which had 78% sensitivity and 87% specificity (AUC 0.87, diagnostic accuracy 84%).
Conclusion
The RFR as newly resting indices is reliable to the assessment of functional lesion severity. This physiology-based approach may be a possible alternative method for FFR measurements in daily practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The rates of sarcopenia and cachexia evaluations by different occupational groups at different settings are unclear. The objectives are to evaluate and compare the relative use of sarcopenia and cachexia evaluations among dietitians and associated healthcare professionals in a diverse range of settings. METHODS AND STUDY DESIGN Participants were 4,621 members from the Japanese Association of Rehabilitation Nutrition. Settings included acute general wards, convalescent rehabilitation wards, long-term care wards, homecare service, and other settings. A questionnaire-based cross-sectional study was performed to evaluate assessments for sarcopenia and cachexia among dietitians and other professionals. Multiple comparisons based on Bonferroni method and logistic regression analysis were used. RESULTS 718 (15.5%) answered the questionnaire. Data from 683 valid questionnaires were analyzed. Muscle strength, muscle mass, physical function, and cachexia were assessed by 53.4%, 51.1%, 53.4%, and 17.4% of dietitians. At convalescent rehabilitation wards, these rates were 81.8%, 62.0%, 82.5%, and 14.0%. The use of muscle strength and physical function evaluations was significantly lower among dietitians than among physical therapists and occupational therapists. The use of muscle mass and cachexia evaluations was not significantly different among the occupations. The use of muscle mass and strength evaluations was significantly higher in convalescent rehabilitation wards than in acute general wards, long-term care wards and facilities, and other settings, but not in homecare services. Cachexia evaluations were not significantly different between all settings. CONCLUSIONS Raising the awareness of cachexia and sarcopenia among dietitians is a key issue, which should be addressed.

Abstract
Our aim was to clarify the nutritional status and energy intake needed for activities of daily living (ADL) improvement among convalescent stroke patients. This retrospective cohort study of stroke patients used data from the Japan Rehabilitation Nutrition Database. Mean energy intake per ideal body weight was 26 kcal/kg/day at 1 week after hospitalization. Patients were divided into two groups according to energy intake: ≥26 kcal/kg/day (high) and <26 kcal/kg/day (low). ADL was evaluated using Functional Independence Measure (FIM), and nutritional status was evaluated using the mini nutritional assessment short form score. We created an inverse probability weighted (IPW) model using propensity scoring to control and adjust for patient characteristics and confounders at the time of admission. The analysis included 290 patients aged 78.1 ± 7.8 years. There were 165 patients with high energy intake and 125 patients with low energy intake. FIM score was significantly higher in the high group compared with the low group (median 113 vs 71, P <0.001). FIM efficiency was also higher in the high group (median 0.31 vs 0.22, P <0.001). FIM efficiency was significantly higher in the high energy intake group than in the low energy intake group after adjustment by IPW (median 0.31 vs 0.25, P = 0.011). Nutritional status improvement was also higher in the high energy intake group after adjustment by IPW (60.6% vs 45.2%, P <0.001). High energy intake was associated with higher FIM efficiency and nutritional status improvement at discharge among convalescent stroke patients.

Abstract
Since 1996, Kawasaki City has been constructing community rehabilitation programs for persons with disabilities. In 2000, a comprehensive community rehabilitation plan for Kawasaki City was established, including the activities that would realize it. This community rehabilitation plan aims to provide people with disabilities with comprehensive rehabilitation for improving their quality of life in the community through maintaining or rebuilding lifestyles. Its basic philosophy is represented by the key words "comprehensiveness," "expertise," and "community-based." We entrust it with our own financialresources. Over the last 20 years, the City government and the non government organization have collaborated to develop this plan. The homevisit rehabilitation service is the most important and main program in the comprehensive community rehabilitation system in Kawasaki City.

Abstract
Kawasaki City has been developing its community rehabilitation system for people with disabilities since 1996. In this system, the home visit rehabilitation project plays a main role. This project involves teams comprising physiatrists, physical and occupational therapists, psychologists, speech therapists, and social workers. They visit a patient at his/her residence to provide rehabilitation of the patient's living model after medical rehabilitation at a medical facility. The teams then perform comprehensive rehabilitation using interdisciplinary procedures to improve the patient's quality of life in their home and social activities. In this paper, we outline the home visit rehabilitation project being implemented in Kawasaki City, including the role of the social worker who manages the overall home visit rehabilitation services.

Abstract
Patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS)often experience reduced social participation because of their need for constant medical and physical care. In the community, care teams that consist of home care workers, nurses, and other professionals provide support for these patients. However, these care teams may not have sufficient knowledge of ALS. Therefore, these are requests to us from some of these teams when they want to get specific advice on support for patients with ALS. In this study, we report our experience of home visit rehabilitation for an adult with ALS who aimed to continue their Social participation. We carried out comprehensive assessment and provided expert advice on seating systems, communication and transportation aids, and building a relationship with the care team.

Abstract
In this paper, we report our work in home visit rehabilitation based on the philosophy of community rehabilitation. Our team consists of in physiatrist, physical therapist, occupational therapist, clinical psychologist, public health nurse, and social worker. First, our team visited people with disabilities who lived in the community to determine their various needs and the causes of their potential challenges. Second, we offered support to ensure that people with disabilities realized better living, employing all accessible rehabilitation technologies and social resources. The focus of this paper is the case of a female patient with cervical spinal cord injury who changed her mind regarding living better and actively participating in society, from merely persisting to achieve"meaningless physical recovery." We recommended house renovation for easy movement and the use of assistive devices, which enable people with disabilities to move safely in their living space. We also advised the patient to use" Care lifts, which are equipment for moving the body up and down for transfer and movement,"or independent bathing and changing wheelchairs. After the intervention, she could actively participate in volunteer activities to help persons with disability when they go out.

Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to clarify the effect of forefoot arthroplasty on plantar pressure, pain, gait, and disability within 1 year after arthroplasty in patients with RA.Methods: Eleven patients with RA who underwent forefoot arthroplasty completed this quasi-experimental study. Outcome measures were in-shoe plantar pressure, visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, temporal gait parameters, and modified Health Assessment Questionnaire (mHAQ), obtained preoperatively and at 4 and 12 months postoperatively.Results: The average peak plantar pressure under the 2nd metatarsal head decreased at 4 months postoperatively, compared to preoperative values (p < .05) and the decreased plantar pressure was sustained at 12 months postoperatively. Similar changes were observed under the 3rd to 5th metatarsal heads. The median VAS for foot pain decreased from 25 mm preoperatively to 1 mm at 4 months postoperatively and the lower score was sustained at 12 months postoperatively (p < .05). The median mHAQ score remained lower (<1.0) at all measurement points. Regarding gait, there were no significant differences from the preoperative assessment to postoperative follow-up.Conclusion: Plantar pressure and forefoot pain decreased at 4 and 12 months after forefoot arthroplasty in patients with RA. No adverse effects on gait parameters or disability were observed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES An ageing society includes high patient complexity. Various biopsychosocial problems result in a high burden for health-related professionals. The direct relationship between the burden and patient complexity, however, has not been reported. We aimed to examine correlations between the burden for the attending physicians and nurses, and Patient Centred Assessment Method (PCAM) scores of patient complexity. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING A regional secondary care hospital in Japan. PARTICIPANTS We included all inpatients admitted to our acute care unit between 1 July 2014 and 30 September 2014. Exclusion criteria were age <20 years, refusal to participate in the study and length of stay fixed at the time of admission. MAIN PREDICTOR PCAM total score in the initial phase of hospital admission. MAIN OUTCOME The burden for each profession (measured on a Visual Analogue Scale). RESULTS In total, 201 inpatients participated [female/male=98/103, mean (SD) age of 77.4±11.9 years]. Spearman's rank correlation coefficients between the burden and the PCAM score ranged from 0.23 to 0.32. All p values were <0.05. Multivariate analysis was conducted using multilevel mixed-effects linear regression to determine the association between the burden and the PCAM score in two models. Model 1 used the total PCAM score as the predictive variable. Model 2 used the PCAM factors, patient-oriented complexity and medicine-oriented complexity, as predictive variables. In Model 2, with the burden of physicians, medicine-oriented complexity was statistically significant, whereas with the burden of nurses, both age and patient-oriented complexity were statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS PCAM scores correlated with the burden for physicians and nurses. Individual PCAM factors affected the burden for each profession differently.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the presence and predictors of depression and anxiety in pet owners after a diagnosis of cancer in their pets. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING A veterinary medical centre specialised in oncology for dogs and cats and two primary veterinary clinics in Japan. PARTICIPANTS The participants for analysis were 99 owners of a pet with cancer diagnosis received in the past 1-3 weeks and 94 owners of a healthy pet. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Self-reported questionnaires were used to assess depression and anxiety. Depression was assessed using the Center of Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and anxiety was measured by using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-Form JYZ. RESULTS Depression scores were significantly higher in owners of a pet with cancer than owners of a healthy pet, even after adjustment for potential confounders (p<0.001). Within the owners of a pet with cancer, depression was significantly more common in those who were employed than those who were unemployed (p=0.048). State anxiety scores were significantly higher in owners of a pet with cancer than owners of a healthy pet, even after adjustment for potential confounders, including trait-anxiety scores (p<0.001). Furthermore, in owners of a pet with cancer, state anxiety was higher in owners with high trait anxiety (p<0.001) and in owners whose pets had a poor prognosis (p=0.027). CONCLUSION The results indicate that some owners tended to become depressed and anxious after their pets had received a diagnosis of cancer. Employment may be a predictor of depression. High trait anxiety and a pet with a poor prognosis may increase owners' state anxiety. Including the pet in a family genogram and attention to the pet's health condition may be important considerations for family practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigated the effects of antipsychotics on rehabilitation outcomes for geriatric hip fracture inpatients. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING The registry data from the Japan Rehabilitation Nutrition Database for analysis. PARTICIPANTS Of the 234 patients in the Japan Rehabilitation Nutrition Database admitted between November 2015 and March 2018, 214 met the eligibility criteria. MEASUREMENTS The antipsychotics were phenothiazine, butyrophenone, benzamide, and atypical antipsychotics. For hip fracture patients, the following information was registered: (a) admission data: age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index, Functional Independence Measure (FIM) at admission, medications, height, body weight, and Mini Nutritional Assessment-Short Form score (MNA-SF) and (b) discharge data: discharge destination, FIM at discharge, MNA-SF, and total units of provided rehabilitation therapy (one unit = 20 minutes based on the national healthcare insurance policy). RESULTS Thirteen patients (6.1%) were prescribed antipsychotics. According to the multiple linear regression analysis, antipsychotics negatively affected FIM efficiency (β=-0.190, 95% confidence interval, -0.652 to -0.104, p=0.007). Furthermore, on logistic regression analysis, fall during hospitalization was correlated with the use of antipsychotics (odds ratio=4.376, 95% confidence interval: 1.153 to 16.612, p=0.030). CONCLUSION The use of antipsychotics impaired the improvement of the activities of daily living (ADL) and increased the incidence of fall during hospitalization. Reviewing medication therapies at admission may further improve ADL.

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
OBJECTIVE To systematically review evidence on the effects of nutrition therapy in older stroke patients undergoing rehabilitation and identify its effectiveness using meta-analysis. METHODS PubMed (MEDLINE), EMBASE (via Dialog), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trial, World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform and Ichu-shi Web were searched for relevant articles. Randomized controlled trials investigating the effects of nutrition therapy compared to control interventions in older stroke patients undergoing rehabilitation were considered eligible. The primary outcome was activities of daily living (ADL), and secondary outcomes were all-cause mortality, infections, pneumonia incidence, disability level, walking ability, fall, stroke recurrence, and quality of life. The risk of bias of each trial was assessed using the Cochrane Collaboration Tool, and the quality of the body of evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach. RESULTS Eight randomized controlled trials with a total of 5484 participants were included in the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis for ADL showed no significant effects (mean difference, 4.16; 95% confidence interval [CI], -0.88 to 9.20; I2=53%, low-quality evidence). The meta-analyses for secondary outcomes revealed a significant effect of reduced infections (risk ratio, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.51 to 0.84; I2=0%; low-quality evidence), with no significant effects on the other outcomes. CONCLUSION Nutrition therapy had no statistically significant effect on ADL. However, it reduced the incidence of infections. More high-quality trials are warranted to clarify the effects of nutrition therapy in older stroke patients undergoing rehabilitation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate the impact of the number of drug types on clinical outcomes for patients with acute hip fracture. DESIGNS This is a retrospective cross-sectional study. SETTING A hospital-based database constructed by the Japan Medical Data Center. PARTICIPANTS Consecutive patients exhibiting acute hip fractures on admission between April 2014 and November 2017 were included. MEASUREMENTS Relationships among the numbers of varying drug types of ≥6 and ≤5 as well as clinical outcomes were analyzed in 11,073 patients aged ≥65 years. The primary outcome was defined as the Barthel Index efficiency, with the secondary outcome being the length of hospital stay. RESULTS Median Barthel Index scores at admission and discharge were 5 (interquartile range: 5-20) and 50 (interquartile range: 20-85). The Barthel Index efficiency was significantly higher in the group having received 5 or fewer drug variations taken (1.45 ± 1.77) than in the group receiving 6 or more drug types taken (0.94 ± 1.18) during hospital stays (p < 0.001). The length of hospital stay was significantly shorter in the group receiving 5 or fewer drug types taken (29.9 ± 23.8) than in the group having 6 or more drug types taken (44.3 ± 30.3) during hospital stays (p < 0.001), with the latter number being independently associated with the Barthel Index efficiency and length of hospital stay. CONCLUSIONS Number of drug types of 6 or more were associated with lower Barthel Index efficiency and longer lengths of hospital stays.

Abstract
Sarcopenia is a very important issue in rehabilitation medicine and nutritional care. The prevalence of sarcopenia in older people is approximately 50% in the rehabilitation setting, and also approximately 15% of inpatients without sarcopenia upon admission developed sarcopenia during hospitalization. There is a concern that secondary sarcopenia may occur iatrogenically during hospitalization. Iatrogenic sarcopenia is defined as sarcopenia caused by the activities of medical staff including doctors, nurses, or other health care professionals in healthcare facilities. Iatrogenic sarcopenia is categorized into activity-related, nutrition-related and disease-related-iatrogenic sarcopenia. Especially in acute phase hospitals, concentrating on the treatment of diseases with less attention to nutrition and activity is more likely to cause iatrogenic sarcopenia. Sarcopenic dysphagia is also an important aspect in rehabilitation medicine and nutritional care. Sarcopenic dysphagia is characterized by swallowing difficulty because of a loss of mass and function in whole-body skeletal and swallowing muscles. Sarcopenic dysphagia can be diagnosed using a 5-step algorithm for the condition. Iatrogenic sarcopenia and sarcopenic dysphagia are affected by nutrition, activity and diseases in a complex manner. Therefore, treatment of iatrogenic sarcopenia and sarcopenic dysphagia requires comprehensive interventions through nutrition management and rehabilitation. Rehabilitation nutrition is effective for preventing and treating iatrogenic sarcopenia and sarcopenic dysphagia. Rehabilitation nutrition can be practiced more effectively and comprehensively by using the rehabilitation nutrition care process, which is a systematic problem-solving method. Further research is required to verify the efficacy of rehabilitation nutrition for preventing or improving iatrogenic sarcopenia and/or sarcopenic dysphagia.
