As present situations and problems of dementia patients in hospitals for community-based care, 8 core categories (19 categories) were extracted and as actual situations of interprofessional work for dementia care, 8 core categories (13 categories) were obtained. The authors examined a function of interprofessional work model and practice contents using these categories. The results revealed that better interprofessional work can be expected by six specialists of nurses rehabilitation specialists, MSW, pharmacists, dietitians and care workers developing dementia care based on “Family handling function” “ADL maintenance and improved function” “Staff member education and empowerment function”.展开更多

The aim of this study was to clarify the difference in the effect of model height on the thickness between single- and double-layered mouthguards. Mouthguards were thermoformed using ethylene-vinyl-acetate sheets and a pressure molding machine. Working models were three hard gypsum models with the height of the anterior part trimmed to 25 mm (model A), 30 mm (model B), and 35 mm (model C). Three molding conditions were compared: a single-layered mouthguard using a 4.0-mm thick-sheet (S4);a double-layered mouthguard using a 3.0-mm-thick sheet on the first-layer and a 2.0-mm-thick sheet on the second-layer (L32);and a double-layered mouthguard using 3.0-mm-thick sheets on first- and second-layers (L33). Analysis was performed by two-way ANOVA and a simple main effect test for the differences in the mouthguard thickness depending on the model height and the molding condition. Under all molding conditions, the labial and buccal thicknesses tended to become thinner as the model height increased, and models B and C were thinner by about 6% - 7% and about 14% - 16% than model A, respectively. The cusp thickness was not affected by the model height in L32 and L33, but in S4, models B and C were thinner about 14% or more than model A. Significant differences were observed among molding conditions, and S4 P < 0.01). This study suggested that the degree of the decrease in mouthguard thickness due to the increase the model height was similar for the single- and double-layered mouthguards on the labial and buccal sides, and increasing the model height by 5 mm and 10 mm decreased the thickness by about 6% - 7% and about 14% - 16%, respectively. At the cusp, only the single-layered mouthguard was affected by the model height.展开更多

In this context, a physics-based model for I–V characteristics and various microwave characteristics such as transconductance, cut-off frequency and maximum frequency of oscillation of submicron triple material gate(TM) GaAs MESFET are developed. The reduced short channel effects have also been discussed in combined designs i.e. TM, DM and SM in order to show the impact of our approach on the GaAs MESFETs-based device design. The proposed analytical models have been verified by their good agreement with 2D numerical simulations. The models developed in this paper will be useful for submicron and microwave analysis for circuit design.展开更多
