Risk factors associated with higher skin age relative to chronological age in community-dwelling middle-aged Japanese adults Open
Skin condition reflects both chronological aging and overall health, yet few studies have examined its links to lifestyle or cardiovascular risk factors in Asian populations. In 2023, 527 Japanese adults aged 40–64 years underwent facial i…

Association between serum glycated albumin and the risk of sarcopenia and dynapenia in a community-dwelling older Japanese population: the Hisayama Study Open
Higher serum GA is a significant risk factor for both sarcopenia and dynapenia, with a stronger association observed for dynapenia, even in the absence of diabetes.

Impact of Concurrent Visual and Hearing Impairment on Incident Alzheimer’s Disease: The LIFE Study Open
Background: The prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is increasing in Japan due to population aging. The association between sensory impairment and incident AD remains unclear. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the impact of sen…

Association between Axial Length and Myopic Maculopathy Open
The present study found that there was a positive association between AL and the likelihood of myopic maculopathy, and the cutoff levels of AL for identifying myopic maculopathy were 25.9 mm in men and 25.3 mm in women. Our findings sugges…

Association of rs613872 and Trinucleotide Repeat Expansion in the TCF4 Gene of German Patients With Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy Open
Purpose: To investigate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and trinucleotide repeat (TNR) expansion in the transcription factor 4 ( TCF4 ) gene in a large cohort of German patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD). Metho…

Activation of TGF-β signaling induces cell death via the unfolded protein response in Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy Open
Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is a slowly progressive bilateral disease of corneal endothelium in which accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and loss of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) are phenotypic features. The corne…
