Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To investigate the effect of exercise by gene polymorphism, we conducted comparative epidemiological study using daily activity, habitual exercise and thalassotherapy as exposure; and medical cost and death risk as outcome. The subjects were general population living in an island of Kagoshima with thalassotherapy facility who had routine health checkup (n=445). Frequent use of thalassotherapy that includes exercise in sea water was associated with decreased medical cost among those with hypertension, when medical cost was compared between the first 3- year and the second 3-year. The decrease in medical cost was also observed among those with higher susceptibility for developing obesity that was shown as beta-2 and beta-3 adrenoceptor genes.
