| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Daily data for the past 40 years, by prefectures and by diseases were obtained from Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. We got daily environmental factors such as space and weather for the past 40 years. Using the data from 1979 to 2013, we examined the relationship between the number of daily deaths due to each disease and the environmental factors related to the space and weather. There were correlations between many environmental factors and the number of deaths due to many diseases. Research leader confirmed the reproducibility of the results of Japan on the correlation between geomagnetic disturbance and the number of suicides in the joint research with the China medicine university in Taiwan. We also examined the relationship with environmental factors for other diseases, and established prediction models for deaths of important diseases.
