BACKGROUNDThe Comorbidity Polypharmacy Score (CPS) is calculated by the number of drugs carried plus the number of comorbidities on admission and divided into three categories (minor, 0–7; moderate, 8–14; and severe, 15+). This study investigates whether CPS can predict the clinical outcomes in older patients with hip fractures undergoing surgery.METHODSThis retrospective longitudinal study used a multicenter hospital-based database containing the Diagnosis Procedure Combination. Consecutive patients with hip fractures (ICD-10 codes S720 and S721) who were aged ≥65 years between April 2014 and August 2020 were included. We evaluated the predictive association between the CPS and Barthel Index (BI) efficiency. The primary outcome was defined as the BI efficiency, and the secondary outcome was the length of hospital stay.RESULTSWe enrolled 11,564 patients, and 80.5% of them were female. The mean age was 83.9 ± 6.5 years. The BI efficiency was the lowest in the CPS severe group with a median [interquartile range] of 0.67 [0.10, 1.43]. The length of hospital stay was the highest in the CPS severe group, with a median of 35 [21, 58]. Additionally, multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the CPS was independently associated with the BI efficiency (β = −0.100, 95% CI: −0.040, −0.029; P < 0.001) and the length of hospital stay (β = 0.047, 95% CI: 0.199, 0.366; P < 0.001).CONCLUSIONSAn increased CPS score is associated with low BI efficiency and longer length of hospital stay in patients with hip fractures.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to validate the Japanese version of the Recovery Experience Questionnaire (REQ-J), which assesses how individuals unwind and recuperate from work during leisure time (i.e., psychological detachment, relaxation, mastery and control). Methods: The translated and back-translated REQ was administered via the Internet to 2,520 Japanese employees from various occupations. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to evaluate factorial validity. The relationship with potential predictors and consequences of recovery experiences were investigated to evaluate construct validity. Internal consistency was examined to evaluate its reliability. Results: A series of confirmatory factor analyses revealed that the hypothesized four-factor model fit the data best. Construct validity was generally supported by expected correlations of recovery experiences with possible predictors and consequences. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient for each of the four subscales was sufficient (0.85—0.89). Conclusions: This study confirmed that the REQ-J is an adequate measure of recovery experiences that can be used in the Japanese context.
