Relationship of higher-level functional capacity with long-term mortality in Japanese older people: NIPPON DATA90
CONCLUSION: Impaired HLFC was associated with a high risk of all-cause mortality among community-dwelling older people with independent BADL. In particular, social role in men and IADL and intellectual activity in women were associated with long-term mortality risk.PMID:34248110 | DOI:10.2188/jea.JE20210077

Proteinuria and Reduced Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate are Independently Associated with Lower Cognitive Abilities in Apparently Healthy Community-Dwelling Elderly Men in Japan: A Cross-sectional Study.
CONCLUSIONS: Proteinuria and reduced eGFR, even in their moderate stages, were independently associated with lower cognition in a community-based sample of elderly men. The results suggest the importance of proteinuria and low eGFR for early detection and prevention of cognitive decline. PMID: 31130560 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Dental status is Associated with Incident Functional Disability in Community-Dwelling Older Japanese: A Prospective Cohort Study Using Propensity Score Matching.
CONCLUSIONS: In this prospective cohort study targeting community-dwelling older adults in Japan, less than 20 teeth was confirmed to be an independent risk factor for functional disability even after conducting propensity score matching. This study supports previous publications showing that oral health is associated with functional disability. PMID: 30686817 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The Circulatory Risk in Communities Study (CIRCS): A long-term epidemiological study for lifestyle-related disease among Japanese men and women living in communities.
Authors: Yamagishi K, Muraki I, Kubota Y, Hayama-Terada M, Imano H, Cui R, Umesawa M, Shimizu Y, Sankai T, Okada T, Sato S, Kitamura A, Kiyama M, Iso H Abstract The Circulatory Risk in Communities Study (CIRCS) is an ongoing community-based epidemiological study of lifestyle-related disease, involving dynamic prospective cohorts of approximately 12,000 adults from 5 communities of Japan: Ikawa, Ishizawa and Kita-Utetsu (Akita), Minami-Takayasu (Osaka), Noichi (Kochi), and Kyowa (Ibaraki). One of the most notable features of CIRCS is that it is not only an observational cohort study to identify risk factors for card...
