We analyzed the Japan's walking-to-school practice implemented in 1953 for lessons useful to other cities and countries.We reviewed background documents (gray literature, online government information, local policy documents, regulations) existing regulations several urban settings. also contacted boards of education.Each municipality has a board education charge public schools, which considers geography, climate, transport situation determine method commuting. Because there is high...
Previous epidemiological studies evaluated endogenous sex hormone levels and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk have yielded inconsistent results. Also, it is unknown if consumption of dietary isoflavones may influence the hormones CRC relationships. We conducted a nested case-control study within JPHC Study Cohort II wherein 11,644 women provided blood samples at 5-year follow-up survey. selected two matched controls for each case from cohort (185 cases 361 controls). Multivariable conditional...
Abstract Background: Epidemiologic studies evaluating associations between sex steroid hormones and colorectal cancer risk have yielded inconsistent results. To elucidate the role of circulating levels testosterone, hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in risk, we conducted observational Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses. Methods: The analyses included 333,530 participants enrolled UK Biobank with testosterone SHBG measured. HRs 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated using multivariable...
Experimental evidence suggests that alcohol induces cutaneous carcinogenesis, yet epidemiological studies on the link between intake and skin cancer have been inconsistent. The European Prospective Investigation into Cancer Nutrition (EPIC) is a prospective cohort initiated in 1992 10 countries. Alcohol at baseline average lifetime were assessed using validated country-specific dietary lifestyle questionnaires. Hazard ratios (HRs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs) estimated Cox models. A total...
The strong social pressure for thinness in Japanese society has produced a dramatic increase underweight (body mass index: <18.5 kg/m2) among young women. Being is associated with several negative health outcomes, including nutritional deficiency, osteoporosis, and unfavourable pregnancy outcomes. However, evidence which would help deal this problem from public perspective scarce. Here, we aimed to identify the dietary characteristics of female university students, particularly those desire...
Abstract Red meat and processed have been suggested to increase risk of colorectal cancer ( CRC ), especially colon cancer. However, it remains unclear whether these associations differ according subtypes or subsites. The present study addressed this issue by undertaking a pooled analysis large population‐based cohort studies in Japan: 5 comprising 232 403 participants (5694 cases) for based on frequency intake, 2 123 635 (3550 intake quantity. Study‐specific hazard ratios HR s) 95%...
Abstract Background Epidemiological studies have shown inconsistent results regarding the link between smoking and breast cancer risk, despite biological plausibility of a positive association. Methods Participants were 166 611 women from nine prospective cohort in Japan which launched 1984–1994 followed for 8–22 years. Information on secondhand smoke was obtained through self-administered baseline questionnaires. Breast defined as code C50 according to International Classification Diseases...
Although there are numerous studies on the use of supplements in children and adolescents from western countries, only a small number have been conducted Asian countries. This study was planned to determine their association with lifestyles healthy Japanese adolescents. is community-based cross-sectional urban city, Nara, 2008. A total 681 aged between 3 17 years were enrolled. The parents asked complete questionnaire among children. Demographic information, health nutrition status as...
Abstract We examine the validity and reproducibility of a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) in subsample participants Japan Public Health Center-based Prospective Cohort Study using database polyphenol-containing foods commonly consumed Japanese population. Participants validation study were recruited from two different cohorts. In I, 215 completed 28-d dietary record (DR) FFQ, II, 350 DRs FFQ. The total polyphenol intake estimated DR FFQ log-transformed adjusted for energy by residual...
We evaluated the validity and reproducibility of estimated sugar intakes using a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) among middle-aged Japanese adults in Japan Public Health Centre-Based Prospective (JPHC) study. In subsamples JPHC study (Cohorts I II multiple areas), we computed Spearman’s correlations FFQ results with urine concentrations dietary records (DR) for validity; between two FFQs reproducibility. During 1994–1998, participants (Cohort I: n = 27 [men], 45 [women]) provided (spring...
Background: Despite being a signatory since 2004, Japan has not yet fully implemented Article 8 of the World Health Organization's Framework Convention on Tobacco Control regarding 100% protection against exposure to second-hand smoke (SHS). The Japanese government still recognizes designated smoking rooms (DSRs) in public space as valid control measure. Furthermore, subnational initiatives for tobacco are limited effectiveness. Through an analysis Hyogo initiative 2012, we identified key...
