The purpose of this study was to clarify the actual status of locomotive syndrome among workers in the manufacturing industry and to identify risk factors for occupational accidents including falls related to the severity of locomotive syndrome.
Others
In order to achieve the aforementioned research objectives, the following points are planned to be clarified.
(1) To determine the severity of locomotion among workers in the manufacturing industry and to clarify the actual condition of locomotion.
(2) To compare the physical, mental/psychological, and social aspects of locomotion according to the severity of locomotion (normal - locomotion severity 1 - locomotion severity 2 - locomotion severity 3), and to clarify the differences between them.
(3) To extract physical, mental/psychological, and social factors related to the severity of locomo using multivariate analysis (e.g., multinomial logistic regression analysis).
Occurrence of work-related injuries in subjects with locomo
The severity of locomo in subjects is determined using (1) the locomo rise test, (2) the locomo 2-step test, and (3) the locomo 25 interview, as prescribed by the Japanese Orthopaedic Association. Each subject will participate in periodic in-house health checkups for the degree of locomotion, and all of the tests from (1) to (3) will be conducted.
(1) Basic information
Basic information including gender, age, medical history, comorbidities, medications (e.g., antihypertensive medications, benzodiazepines), working hours, type of industry, shift work, membership in sports club, history of falls, anthropometric data (Body Mass Index (BMI), muscle mass), grip strength, standing balance ability, walking speed, and specific health checkup questionnaire The basic information including body composition data (Body Mass Index (BMI), muscle mass), grip strength, standing balance ability, walking speed, and specific health checkup questionnaires are directly measured or interviewed.
(2) Loco-mo test
The following tests are used to test the degree of locomotion: (1) Loco-mo rise test, (2) Loco-mo 2-step test, and (3) Loco-mo 25 questionnaire, as specified by the Japanese Orthopaedic Association.
The criteria for determining the degree of locomo in this study is that if any of the aforementioned tests (1) Rise test, (2) 2-step test, and (3) LOKOMO 25 are applicable, the patient is judged to have locomo.

Male and Female
1) Subjects who will work in the manufacturing industry between the date of approval by the head of the research institution and March 31, 2028
2) Subjects who are between 18 and 66 years of age at the time of obtaining consent
3) Subjects who can obtain written consent from the individual for free and voluntary research participation
(1) Persons with severe functional impairment of motor units and difficulty in performing tests to classify the severity of locomotion
(2) Persons with strong psychiatric symptoms and significant cognitive dysfunction

In this study, the Locomo Degree Test (Japanese Orthopaedic Association) is administered to workers in the manufacturing industry to evaluate the state of locomotive syndrome. The relationship between the severity of locomotive syndrome and basic information including age, gender, industry, history of falls, nighttime sleeping habits, work-life balance, etc. will then be verified. In addition, multivariate analysis will be conducted according to the severity of locomotive syndrome (normal, locomotion level 1, locomotion level 2, and locomotion level 3), and physical, psycho-psychological, and social factors related to locomotive syndrome will be extracted.
