Daytime skin temperature and nocturia in the subsequent night among community-dwelling older adults in the cold season in the Heijo-KYO study
Forecasting daily bathtub-drowning mortality in Japan
Background: Japan reports the highest global mortality rate from drowning among older adults, predominantly owing to bathtub-related incidents. Despite sustained public health interventions, this mortality has increased over several decades. Timely warnings advising older adults to avoid unsupervised bathing during high-risk conditions may mitigate this issue; however, no nationwide forecasting model currently exists. Methods: We integrated death…
Influence of room heating on ambulatory blood pressure in winter
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have proposed that higher blood pressure (BP) in winter is an important cause of increased mortality from cardiovascular disease during the winter. Some observational and physiological studies have shown that cold exposure increases BP, but evidence from a randomised controlled study assessing the effectiveness of intensive room heating for lowering BP was lacking. OBJECTIVES: The present study aimed to determine whet…
