The purpose of this study is to examine healthy Kawasaki residents aged 75-79 who do not require care in their daily lives (classified as 'independent' or 'Support Level 1'), by analyzing them from multiple perspectives, including the physical domain (medical care, long-term care), the psychological domain (well-being, cognitive function, depression), the lifestyle domain (dietary habits, exercise habits, sleep), environment and community (housing environment, neighborhood environment, and social participation), to identify the characteristics of this group of healthy older adults and the factors necessary for maintaining their health and vitality.
Others
This study builds upon previous research conducted on older cohorts, namely the Centenarian Study initiated in 2000, as well as the Kawasaki Aging and Well-being Project (KAWP), to predict aging using genomic biomarkers, to measure effects using longitudinal data collected via devices, and to elucidate the requirements for maintaining vitality from the perspectives of region, community, and environment, specifically, in terms of fostering a sense of purpose and well-being, and forming communities that include seniors who are physically and mentally healthy.
Referencing the WHO's ICOPE framework, we will develop a comprehensive index based on eight indicators: the six intrinsic capacities (cognitive function, motor function, vitality, vision, hearing, and enjoyment, the opposite of depressive tendencies) plus two functional abilities (social support and social network). The composite score of these eight vitality indicators will serve as the primary outcome measure for this prospective cohort study.
The survey items will be carefully selected from those scheduled for collection in the baseline survey.
