Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Due to the increase in the percentage of elderly Japanese people, the percentage of the population that needs nursing care is increasing. The concept of locomotive syndrome (LS) has been proposed to describe the risk of mobility dependence caused by various motor organ disorders. Thus, we performed an epidemiological study about LS among Japanese old residents. Knee pain and/or low back pain had more strongly relationship with LS than radiographic knee osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and vertebral fractures. Poor quadriceps muscle power was related to LS. Participants who reported regular exercise habits in middle age had better physical function during old age. To control physical pains such as knee pain and/or low back pain, to maintain quadriceps muscle power, and regular exercise habits in middle age appear to protect against LS during the older years.
