Outline of Final Research Achievements

The present project was designed to establish the stronghold of community-based health educational system for prevention of lifestyle-related diseases among children, adolescents, and young adults. We got several scientific achievements, including the relationship between serum HDL-C and lifestyle habits, reference values for biomarkers for lifestyle-related diseases, prevalence of helicobacter pylori infection, and serum fatty acids among school children. We also had social enlightening activities, such as health-related lectures for citizens and outpatient clinic for prevention of lifestyle-related diseases and “Demae” clinic for school children and their parents. Furthermore, we developed remote health support system using TV meeting system. Based on these results, we established the health educational programs on prevention of lifestyle-related diseases among school children. Thus, this project might contribute to establish the community-based health educational system.
