| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To examine the relationship between the positive expression of the auto antibodies and the new onset of the life-style related diseases in general population for the protection of cardiovascular diseases, we evaluated the association of rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) and anti-CCP antibody (CCP) and the new onset of hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus in healthy people of Kobe city. During two years follow-up periods, no significant relation between the positive expression of RF, ANA and CCP and the life-style related diseases. Further study with longer follow-up period should be needed to evaluate these relationships and explore the optimal cut-off point of auto antibodies for detection of the life-style related diseases.
