[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to confirm the accuracy of a revised method for predicting the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) at discharge when stroke patients are first admitted to a rehabilitation hospital. [Subjects and Methods] The predictive equation with logarithmic trend line was calculated based on the total score of the FIM at admission and discharge in 93 patients with ...

High-temperature tensile testing of AH36 material in a wide range of temperatures (1173-1573 K) and strain rates (10-4-10-2 s-1) has been obtained by using a Gleeble system. These experimental stress-strain data have been adopted to develop the constitutive equation. The constitutive equation of AH36 material was suggested based on the modified Arrhenius-type equation and the modified Rossard e...

The thermodynamic properties of fluids can be predicted using the global equations of state. Among these thermodynamic properties of fluids, we choose the densities of the liquid and vapor phases. This paper considers the application of the crossover model to the vapor-liquid rectilinear diameter of sulfurhexafluoride. We also present a comparison of the crossover model equation with ...

a precise estimation of water consumption throughout a crop's growth season and of the amount of water consumed in each growth stage may play an important role in water resources management, integrated water and soil management, and proper irrigation scheduling. in a greenhouse, this faces with the conditions specific to this environment. this study was conducted to propose a model to make an a...

In a previous study, logistic regression analysis was used to determine the association of independent fixed patient factors with the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Female sex, previous history of PONV, use of postoperative opioids, previous history of motion sickness and an interaction between male sex and previous history of PONV were combined in an equation from which...

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to establish a stature-predicted equation using knee height, and perform a clinical validation on a Korean population. METHODS Using nationwide data obtained from 'Size Korea 2004', a stature-predicted equation was drawn and cross validation was performed using knee height in 5,063 subjects (2,532 males, 1,785 premenopausal females, and 746 postmenopausal females) ...
