Many complex factors contribute to suicide in older adults. The suicidal ideation that precedes suicide is an especially direct predictor of suicide. This study aimed to identify the effects between v...
This study used data from 9920 community-dwelling older adults who completed a national survey in 2020 to classify predictors of suicidal ideation (e.g., depression, subjective health status, sociodem...
Gender, education level, economic level, age, IADL, relationship satisfaction with a child, depression, and the number of chronic diseases significantly affected suicidal ideation, while age, employme...
It was found that depression was the most direct and mediating factor in suicidal ideation among many factors affecting the suicidal ideation of community-dwelling older adults. Additional studies sho...
In the primary and secondary medical health sector, patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) are widely used to assess a patient's disease-related functional health state. However, the World Health O...
This research sought to optimize machine learning (ML) methods that fully and automatically link information collected from PROMs in persons with unspecific chronic low back pain (cLBP) to limitations...
A total of 806 patients with cLBP completed a comprehensive set of validated PROMs and were interviewed by clinical psychologists who assessed patients' performance in activity limitations and restric...
Compared to a recently developed ML linking method, receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC-AUC) values for the novel RF methods showed overall improved performance, with AUC values ranging from ...
Findings suggest that our optimized ML based methods more accurately predict the presence or absence of limitations and restrictions listed in ICF core categories for cLBP. In addition, this accurate ...
To determine if commonly used caregiver burden assessments, Zarit Burden Interview(ZBI), Caregiver Reaction Assessment Scale(CRA), Caregiver Burden Inventory(CBI), and Caregiver Strain Index(CSI), pro...
Meaningful concepts, identified from these assessments, were linked to the most appropriate and precise International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) code by experienced co...
A total of 120 meaningful concepts identified from 83 items, represented three of the four ICF domains: 1)...
Linking commonly used caregiver burden assessments to the ICF and comparing the results to the epidemiologic factors of caregiver burden suggests that the assessments may not be capturing many of the ...
This systematic review aimed to identify the existing patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) used in hip or knee arthroplasty for adults with osteoarthritis and assess their content validity using ...
Four databases were systematically searched to identify disease or joint-specific PROMs evaluating function after hip or knee arthroplasty. Two reviewers independently evaluated the content of PROMs b...
From 449 studies included in this review, 50 PROMs were identified. The mobility chapter of activities and participation was the most common component, followed by sensory function and pain chapter of...
Even though our search identified 50 specific PROMs, there remain gaps in content related to activity and participation coverage. By providing a content analysis of the PROMs used after hip or knee ar...
Stroke is a common, serious, and disabling healthcare problem with increasing incidence and prevalence. Following a stroke, identifying the factors associated with decisions about rehabilitation inter...
In this study we conduct three best-worst scaling (BWS) experiments to value body function and activities from patients' and public perspective. Out of all ICF dimensions this research covers health c...
The research will add to the current literature on clinical decision-making in stroke rehabilitation and the value of certain body functions as well as related activities in neurorehabilitation. Moreo...
To support the achievement of life goals and social participation of persons with mental illness, based on the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and ...
Focus group interviews on the items to be included were conducted with Group A. A draft scale was constructed by extracting articles mentioning factors for social participation and recovery for each I...
The interviews revealed subjective experience items. The draft scale had 81 items (physical and mental functions, 10; activities, 23; participation, 24; environment, 12; individuals, six; and subjecti...
The CAMI-S helped participants ascertain patients' strengths and weaknesses. Its reliability and validity will be verified through a large-scale survey in the future....
Limitation of daily activities and impairment of working memory have received less attention in the clinical diagnosis and prognostic assessment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In this study, the Ac...
A total of 221 subjects were recruited into this cross-sectional study. ICF Sleep Disorders Brief Core Set, polysomnography, and neuropsychological tests were applied for data acquisition. Data analys...
The scores for the component Activities and Participation were significantly different between the no OSA/OSA group, and were elevated as the severity of OSA increased. Scores were positively correlat...
The Activities and Participation component of the ICF Sleep Disorders Brief Core Set could have the potential to predict the impairment of attention and work ability in OSA patients. It provides a new...
To study outcome after cochlear implantation using the Cochlear Implant (CI) outcome assessment protocol based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model (CI...
Raw data of a prospective, longitudinal, multicenter study was analyzed. Seventy-two CI candidates were assessed preoperatively and six months postoperatively using the CI-ICF protocol. Following tool...
There was a significant improvement of speech discrimination in quiet (p = 0.015; p < 0.001) and in noise (p = 0.041; p < 0.001), sound detection (p < 0.001), tinnitus (p = 0.026), listening (p < 0.00...
This study highlights the positive impact of cochlear implantation on auditory performance, communication, and subjective well-being. The CI-ICF protocol provides a holistic and comprehensive view of ...
A notable rise in health-related disability for which evidence-based rehabilitation is beneficial is evident in low-to-middle income countries. This scoping review aimed to systematically identify and...
The number of older patients with heart failure (HF) is increasing in Japan and has become a social problem. There is an urgent need to develop a comprehensive assessment methodology based on the comm...

We conducted a literature review of ICF linking rules and developed a questionnaire on scoring methods linked to ICF categories in older people with HF. In the Delphi rounds, we sent the expert panel ...
A total of 21 panel members responded to all the Delphi rounds. In the first Delphi round, six question items in four ICF categories did not reach a consensus of 'Agreement', but the result of our mod...
The ICF-based scoring method for older people with HF developed in this study was found to be appropriate. Future work is needed to clarify whether comprehensive assessment and information sharing bas...
