Outline of Final Research Achievements	This study aimed to apply Salutogenesis Theory to examine the impact of lifestyle on the autonomic nerves of women with presymptomatic disease. The impact of life balance on the autonomic nerves was measured by employing Ryodoraku. The subjects were women 30-50 years of age with uncomfortable symptoms: five from the Kanto region, and twelve from the Tohoku region. The average Ryodoraku scores of subjects living in Tohoku were higher than those in Kanto. However, it was difficult to take Ryodoraku measurements face-to-face because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although ultimately an application did not result, the researchers realized the need to design programs for women to visualize their physical strength and the balance of their autonomic nerve system. This, in turn, can facilitate their understanding of the relationships among their lifestyles and symptoms and signs. Thus, the researchers created a model to facilitate this goal, with the cooperation of information design specialists.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	人口減少・高齢化が進む我が国において、如何に健康寿命を延ばすかは保健医療政策の重要な課題である。本研究は、病気につながる危険因子に焦点をあててそれを排除しようとする発想ではなく、なぜ人々は健康でいられるのかという健康因子に焦点を当てたアントノフスキーの提唱した健康生成論を応用し、デザインした。その結果、関東地域よりも東北の対象者の方が自律神経のバランスを見る良導絡の平均値が高い傾向にあった。地域文化による影響をさらに検討する必要があった。また、研究者の解析に頼る傾向が強いアプリの開発よりも、情報デザインの専門家と協働し、対象者が自主的な健康リフレクションを支援するモデルの構想案を作成した。
