| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the study, a simulation method was developed to evaluate the health impacts of improvements in living environments. Specifically, a comprehensive assessment of thermal, acoustic, lighting, sanitary, safety, and security conditions in residences across the country was conducted, and their relationship with the prevalence of diseases (diabetes mellitus, disorders of the conjunctiva, hypertensive diseases, heart diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, other diseases of the upper respiratory tract, chronic lower respiratory diseases, asthma, dermatitis and eczema, and Inflammatory polyarthropathies) among residents was analyzed. The relationship between these environmental factors and disease prevalence was modeled. Furthermore, a simulation model was developed to estimate the costs of medical visits and wage losses due to absenteeism, categorized by gender and age group. Using this model, a macro-simulation was performed to estimate the economic benefits of improving living environments.
