  • Modifying Effect of Outdoor Recreational Activity on the Association Between Anger Expression and Cardiovascular Disease Risk

    Kazuhide Tezuka, Yasuhiko Kubota et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2023

    OBJECTIVE: Outdoor recreational activity (ORA) has been suggested as a practical strategy for anger management to moderate the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, there is a lack of evidence pertaining to this topic. Our aim was to examine whether ORA modified the association between anger expression and the risk of CVD. METHODS: A community-based cohort study was conducted among 1877 Japanese individuals aged 40 to 79 years at baselin…

  • Association between serum albumin levels and height loss in Japanese workers

    Open AccessYuji Shimizu, Hidenobu Hayakawa et al.ARTICLEJournal of PHYSIOLOGICAL…2023Cited by: 1References: 42

    Background Height loss starting in middle age was previously shown to be associated with high cardiovascular mortality in later life. However, the factors associated with height loss remain unknown. Since low serum albumin levels are reported to be associated with high mortality caused by cardiovascular disease, they may also contribute to height loss. Methods To clarify the association between serum albumin and height loss, we conducted a retros…

  • Synergistic Effect of History of Cardiovascular Disease and Mental Distress on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder after the Great East Japan Earthquake

    Open AccessKazuhide Tezuka, Yasuhiko Kubota et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2021

    Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mental distress have been suggested to be associated with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but the effect of their combination on PTSD is unknown. We reviewed the synergistic effects of the history of CVD and mental distress on the possibility of PTSD among residents in Fukushima after the Great East Japan Earthquake. This cross-sectional study was conducted among 38,392 participants aged 40-74 years in the …

  • Anger Expression and the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Among Urban and Rural Japanese Residents

    Kazuhide Tezuka, Yasuhiko Kubota et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2020

    OBJECTIVE: It has been suggested that urbanization, which has been expanding rapidly for the past several decades, increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) associated with psychological factors such as anger, but the evidence is limited. We examined the hypothesis that urbanicity modifies the association of anger expression with the risk of CVD. METHODS: A prospective study was conducted in 5936 residents of urban and rural communities …

  • Menopausal Status in Relation to Cardiovascular Stress Reactivity in Healthy Japanese Participants

    Kumi Hirokawa, Mako Nagayoshi et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2014

    OBJECTIVE: To investigate the hypothesis that postmenopausal women demonstrate greater cardiovascular stress reactivity during mental stress tasks than do both premenopausal women and men. METHODS: The study included 979 Japanese participants (338 men and 641 women [238 postmenopausal]) aged 16 to 82 years. Blood pressure, heart rate, heart rate variability, and peripheral blood flow were measured at rest and during a mirror drawing stress task a…

  • P2-178 The associations of dietary folate, vitamin B 6 and B 12 intakes with risk of sudden cardiac death

    M Maruyama, Tetsuya Ohira et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2011

    Introduction To examine whether dietary folate, vitamin B 6 and B 12 intakes are associated with the risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) among Japanese men and women. Method We conducted a nested case-control study. For each case of SCD entered between 1973 and 2001 in the CIRCS, two controls were randomly selected for each case and matched for age (±3 years), sex and community from among participants without history of SCD. The 77 cases and 154 c…
