Perceived Level of Life Enjoyment and Risk of Developing Disabling Dementia: The Japan Public Health Center-Based Study
DISCUSSION: A higher level of life enjoyment was associated with a lower risk of disabling dementia, particularly in the low-medium mental stress group. This finding suggests the importance of having life enjoyment by managing mental stress for reducing risk of disabling dementia.PMID:37718836 | DOI:10.1093/geronb/gbad129

Genes That Extend Lifespan May Do So by Mitigating the Increased Risk of Death Posed by Having Hypertension
Am J Hypertens. 2023 Aug 10:hpad070. doi: 10.1093/ajh/hpad070. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGenetic factors influence lifespan. In humans, there appears to be a particularly strong genetic effect in those aged ≥ 90 years. An important contribution is nutrient sensing genes which confer cell resilience. Our research has been investigating the genetic factors by longitudinal studies of American men of Japanese descent living on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. This cohort began as the Honolulu Heart Program in the mid-1960s and most subjects are now deceased. We previously discovered various genes containing polymorphisms as...

Predictors of Survival in Patients With Ischemic Stroke and Active Cancer: A Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study
Conclusions The prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke and active cancer varied considerably depending on stroke mechanism, distant metastasis, and coagulation abnormalities. The present study confirmed that coagulation abnormalities were crucial in determining the prognosis of such patients.PMID:37489755 | DOI:10.1161/JAHA.123.029618

Risk and population attributable fraction of stroke subtypes in Japan
CONCLUSION: Although there are differences according to the subtypes, hypertension could be regarded as the most crucial target for preventing strokes in Japan.PMID:37460296 | DOI:10.2188/jea.JE20220364

Serum folate and risk of disabling dementia: a community-based nested case-control study
CONCLUSION: In this nested case-control study with a long follow-up, low serum folate levels were associated with an increased risk of disabling dementia among Japanese individuals.PMID:37314940 | DOI:10.1080/1028415X.2023.2218533
