Outline of Final Research Achievements

We conducted an investigation of the specific health checkup to clarify whether or not the risk factors of arteriosclerotic diseases in the elderly had been treated.
(1) Dyslipidemia: 38.4% were indicated as having had dyslipidemia the preceding year. A total of 22.8% (p< 0.01) underwent drug therapy, and among these, improvement was observed in 47.6% regarding this study. (2) Hypertension: 34.7% were indicated as having had hypertension the preceding year. A total of 59.0% underwent drug therapy, and among these, improvement was observed in 40.8% regarding this study. (3) Diabetes: 6.9% were indicated as having had diabetes the preceding year. A total of 60.6% underwent drug therapy, and among these, improvement was observed in 20.0% regarding this study.
It was suggested that commencing active treatment against dyslipidemia in the elderly and carrying out appropriate control of hypertension and diabetes were necessary.
