[Purpose] (1) The aim of this study was to examine relations between clinical and functional assessment and discharge destination and (2) to identify the optimal cutoff point for estimating discharge to home after inpatient rehabilitation. [Subjects] The subjects were 54 hip fracture patients (15 males, 39 females; mean age 81.3 ± 7.4 years) living alone. [Methods] The patients were classified into two groups: those discharged to home and those admitted to an institution. Age, gender, side of fracture, fracture type, number of comorbidities, Functional Independence Measure motor score, and Functional Independence Measure cognitive score were compared between groups. Multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted with discharge to home as the dependent variable and age, gender, side of fracture, fracture type, number of comorbidities, Functional Independence Measure motor score, and Functional Independence Measure cognitive score as independent variables. A receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to identify a cutoff point for classification of the patients into the two groups. [Results] Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the Functional Independence Measure cognitive score was a significant variable affecting the discharge destination. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that discharge to home was predicted accurately by a Functional Independence Measure cognitive score of 23.5. [Conclusion] Information from this study is expected to be useful for determining discharge plans and for the setting of treatment goals.

Through intensive analysis of the tensile stress-strain curves of a variety of steel sheets over a wide range of strain rates on the order of 10-2 ∼103 s-1 obtained by using the Sensing Block Type High Speed Material Testing System, it was confirmed that the newly-partially extended constitutive model (Tanimura-Mimura Model) is useful to simulate the dynamic stress-strain curves for the entire range of deformation reaching as far as fracture over the wide strain rate range, as long as the quasi-static stress-strain curve of the material concerned is only known in advance. Dynamic tensile properties, over the wide strain rate range and the entire strain region reaching the true fracture strain, of ten kinds of aluminum alloys, which compose of a wide strength level from a commercial pure aluminum to the extra super duralumin are systematically studied. It was cleared that the aluminum alloys belonging to the one group exhibit the positive strain rate sensitivity and the aluminum alloys belonging to another group exhibit the negative sensitivity or almost non sensitivity. It was found that the values of the true fracture strain εf are substantially not affected by the strain rates, for all the tested aluminum alloys, and are closely related to the values of the tensile strength σB whose values are obtained by the quasi-static nominal tensile stress-strain curves.
