This study aimed to examine the relationship between pedometer-assessed daily step count and all-cause mortality in a sample of elderly Japanese people. Participants included 419 (228 males 191 females) physically independent, community-dwelling 71-year-old The number steps per day was measured by waist-mounted pedometer for seven consecutive days at baseline. were divided into quartiles based on their average steps/day (first quartile, < 4503 steps/day; second 4503–6110 third 6111–7971...
Although certain allergic diseases have been reported to be associated with the prevalence of functional dyspepsia (FD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), it is unclear whether presence multiple further increases FD IBS. The aim this study determine issue in young people.
Eur J Clin Invest 2011; 41 (5): 465–473 Abstract Background We evaluated the relationship between glucose fluctuation and vascular endothelial function. Material methods recruited 25 healthy individuals with no family history of diabetes (14 subjects 11 controls). Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) elapsed time when after-hyperaemia maximum brachial diameter is reached; peak times (PT) each study subject were measured before at 60, 120, 180 min after 75-g oral loading. FMD PT...
This cohort study aimed to identify the accumulation patterns of objectively measured ambulatory activity (AA) variables in middle-aged and older Japanese women examine relationship these derivative with onset metabolic syndrome (MetS). A total 794 (mean age: 56.2 years) provided assessed AA data using a uniaxial accelerometer. The number steps, time accumulated light-intensity (LIAA) moderate-to-vigorous intensity (MVAA) ratio MVAA (LIAA + MVAA) were calculated. Latent profile analysis was...
The natural forces of the lunar cycle and seasonal solstice variation on water surfaces have been studied extensively but not patients with fluid problems such as heart failure (HF). This retrospective review investigates these temporal effects admission rates length stay. In this study, we try to answer following questions: Do moon cycles (full vs new moon) significantly affect number admitted? patient’s hospital stay (LOS?). All HF exacerbation between January 1, 2016 December 31, 2019,...
This cross-sectional study aimed to identify the accumulation patterns of objectively measured ambulatory activity (AA) variables in Japanese middle-aged and elderly individuals examine relationship these derivative with metabolic syndrome (MetS).A total 1850 participants (66.1% women, mean age: 57.7 years) provided assessed AA data using a uniaxial accelerometer. The number steps, time accumulated light-intensity (LIAA) moderate-to-vigorous intensity (MVAA), ratio MVAA (LIAA + MVAA) were...
The current focus of meeting the physical activity guidelines for children and young people include preventing conditions such as high blood cholesterol, pressure, metabolic syndrome, obesity, low bone density, depression, injuries. However, relationship between sleep habits is still unclear. This study aimed to assess this among fifth- eighth-grade (ages 10–14) Japanese children. cross-sectional included 3,123 (boys: 1,558, girls: 1,565, mean age: 12.5 ± 1.2 years). Questionnaires were used...
Objective: This study examined the relationship between neighborhood food and physical activity environment, obesity among elementary junior high school students in Japan. Methods: The participants were fifth- to ninth-grade children (n=7277), who attending municipal schools Percent overweight (POW) was calculated using their age, gender, height, weight, which collected through a questionnaire. A POW of < 20% considered non-obese, while ≥ obese. Furthermore, geographic information system,...
Evidence regarding the association between body mass index (BMI) and functional dyspepsia (FD) in Asian population is limited. Further, no study has evaluated this issue young people Western populations. Thus, we aim to investigate among Japanese people.The subjects comprised of 8923 university students. BMI was divided into 4 categories (quartiles) on basis subjects' distribution (lowest, low, moderate, high [reference]). The definition lean, normal, overweight, obese < 18.5 kg/m2, ≤ 25...
Functional dyspepsia (FD) may be a common digestive disease worldwide and reduces the quality of life patients. However, only few studies have investigated association between eating behavior FD. The purpose this cross-sectional study is to examine prevalence FD in young Japanese cohort.In study, we enrolled 8923 university students. diagnosed based on Rome III criteria. Eating habits frequency meals were using self-administered questionnaire.The subjects had younger mean age, lower body...
Few studies have shown that relatively younger children and adolescents (those born later in the same school year) were less likely to engage physical activity a phenomenon termed relative age effect. Although these mainly targeted elementary middle students, no study has reported on effect ordinary high students. Moreover, sedentary behavior might show an opposite association with activity. Therefore, we aimed clarify effects across different stages Japanese adolescents.
Tracking refers to the tendency for an individual maintain their rank within a group over time. This study longitudinally investigated 8-year tracking of pedometer-determined physical activity among physically independent elderly Japanese people aged 72 80 years.Steps/day were measured when participants and assessed again after 2, 5, 8 years. The number with 2-year follow-up (72 74 years) was 177 (101 males, 76 females), 5-year 77 183 (110 73 145 (91 54 females). Step counts continuously 1...
Evidence regarding the association between exercise habits and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) remains scarce in a young population. It is also unknown whether existence of an partner affects this issue. The purpose study was to explore that include IBS Japanese population.This enrolled 8923 university students examined frequency intensity, partners using self-administered questionnaires. functional dyspepsia were defined according Rome III criteria.The prevalence survey 6.5%. Moderate...
There is evidence regarding the association between dysmenorrhea and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), although it lacking in Asian population. Therefore, purpose of this study was to investigate menstrual status IBS a young Japanese.Overall, 4,693 female college students were included analysis study. Information lifestyle habits, (irregularity, pain severity, medication), (Rome III criteria) obtained using self-reported questionnaire. Age, body mass index, exercise smoking, drinking anemia...
Purpose: To clarify the role of p53 in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) for oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), effect BNCT on SCC xenografts with either wild-type or mutant-type was examined.Materials and methods: Oral cells expressing (SAS/neo) (SAS/mp53) were used to produce nude mouse tumours. Tumour-bearing mice received boronophenylalanine (BPA) at a dose 250 mg/kg tumours exposed irradiation.Results: After BNCT, growth SAS/neo SAS/mp53 suppressed remarkably all became undetectable...
Abstract Background Functional dyspepsia (FD) is a very common disease worldwide. Dysmenorrhea impairs quality of life among females reproductive age. Although dysmenorrhea associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), no study has yet evaluated the association between and FD. Methods This study's subjects consisted 4693 female Japanese university students. We defined FD according to Rome III criteria. Subjects completed self‐reported questionnaire regarding menstrual irregularity, pain,...
Abstract Background Relative age effect is defined as a phenomenon where children born early generally perform better than later in the same cohort. Physical activity an important factor that might be influenced by relative effect. Socioeconomic factors (e.g., parent’s income, education level) are also associated with adolescent’s physical activity. However, no existing study has examined whether socioeconomic moderate on This aims to clarify and how birth month relate organized sports among...
