The purpose of this study was to compare the characteristics of starters and non-starters with respect to the anthropometric and physical fitness in a Japanese university rugby team. Our sample pool consisted of 54 players of the K University rugby team, who were registered for the official games (all 7 games/year) in 2018 and 2019. The starter group (26 players) comprised of players with more than 3 games/year while the non-starter group (28 players) comprised of players that registered for official games but played less than 3 games. Anthropometric parameters, such as height, body mass, skinfold (8 items), girth (5 items), body composition, muscular strength, intermittent endurance, and sprint time, were assessed. We found that the starter group for forwards had lower skinfold (Biceps, Iliac crest, Supraspinale, Abdominal, Front thigh, and Medial calf) and percentage body fat than in the non-starter group. The starter group for backs had muscle strength of narrow chinning is higher than in the non-starter group. Finally, our study helped to clarify the physical factors that influence the difference in athletic performance between starters and non-starters in university rugby team. The forward starters had lower percentage body fat and better body composition and backs starters had better narrow chinning. The findings provide information to university rugby players who want to become starters, as well as help the coaching staff understand the factors that need to be strengthened in the players.

This study aimed to evaluate the inter-rater reliability of streetscape audits among online observations using the Microscale Audit of Pedestrian Streetscapes-Global version (MAPS-Global) in Japan. MAPS-Global observations were conducted on routes with distances ranging from 400 to 725 m from a residence toward a non-residential destination. Google Street View audits were independently conducted by two trained raters on each route. A tiered scoring system was applied to summarize the items at multiple levels of aggregation. Positive and negative valence scores were created based on the expected association with physical activity. Inter-rater reliability analyses were performed using kappa statistics or intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC). Of the 32 older adults participating in an intervention study in the community-wide physical activity promotion project in Fujisawa City, 19 addresses were used, excluding those with nearby addresses. Results demonstrated “excellent” agreement for most of the summary scores analyzed (kappa or ICC values of 0.75 or higher [80.4 %]), while 6.5 % of items exhibited “good” agreement (ICC = 0.60–0.74). By contrast, only 13.0 % of the scales had ICC values lower than 0.60 (“fair” or “poor” reliability). The results illustrated high reliability for the grand summary scores and composite subscale measures. However, caution should be exercised when interpreting subscale scores for less frequently observed negative attributes and aesthetic/social characteristics. The results presented in this study support the application of online observations using MAPS-Global in urban areas of Japan, which could be implemented to inform decisions related not only to physical activity but also to traffic safety.

Aim: While the proportion of people of ≥85 years of age is expected to increase, there is limited research on the dietary patterns and physical performance of this population in Japan. The purpose of this study was to identify the dietary patterns of people of ≥85 years of age who live in Tokyo and to examine the relationship with their physical performance. Methods: Using data from the baseline survey (conducted in 2008-2009) of The Tokyo Oldest Old survey on Total Health study, the estimated 58 food intake items were aggregated into 33 items after energy adjustment, and a principal component analysis was performed. For physical performance, the results of grip strength, chair standing test, and 3 m timed up and go test conducted at normal walking speed were used. A multiple regression analysis was used to adjust for confounders and to examine the relationship between each dietary pattern and physical performance. Results: The subjects of the analysis were 87.3 (86.2-88.8) years of age (median [25-75th percentile] ). From the principal component analysis, three dietary patterns were identified: “various vegetable foods”, “fish and mushrooms”, and “cooked rice and miso soup”. A higher propensity for the “fish and mushrooms” dietary pattern was significantly associated with grip strength (partial regression coefficient, B (95% confidence interval): 0.48 (0.13-0.83) ). Conclusions: In a population of people of ≥85 years of age in Tokyo, a positive association was observed between hand grip strength and a dietary pattern characterized by fish and mushroom intake.

Objective　This study clarified the current status of awareness, knowledge, beliefs, and behavioral intentions regarding the Japanese physical activity guidelines (Active Guide) and their relationship with physical activity, sedentary behavior, and the participants’ characteristics.Methods　A cross-sectional study was conducted with 7,000 participants aged 20-69 years registered with an online survey company. Awareness, knowledge, beliefs, and behavioral intentions regarding the Active Guide were examined. Awareness was assessed by unprompted and prompted recall. Knowledge was assessed by numerical responses to “the recommended daily activity time (18-64 years/65 years and older)” and “physical activity time to be increased (plus-ten),” respectively. To survey the beliefs and behavioral intentions, we created a 5-point scale for the Active Guide. For physical activity, the amount of moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity was calculated from the Japan Public Health Center-based prospective Study (JPHC study) questionnaire. Physical activity level was calculated from the standard specific medical checkup and health guidance questionnaire. For sedentary behavior, the Japanese version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used. The dependent variables were awareness, knowledge, beliefs, and behavioral intentions. The independent variables were physical activity, sedentary behavior, and the participants’ characteristics (gender, age, body mass index, marital status, educational background, work status, and household income). After descriptive statistics were measured, a logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the associations.Results　Unprompted and prompted recall of the Active Guide were 1.7% and 5.3-13.4%, respectively. Those with knowledge of it scored 37.2%, 7.0%, 24.8%, and 2.6% for recommended daily activity time (18-64 years), daily physical activity time (65 years and older), plus-ten, and all three items answered correctly, respectively. The median (interquartile range) score of the beliefs was 21 (16-25) points (32-point scale). Those with behavioral intentions scored 51.4% for “recommended daily activity” and 66.9% for “plus-ten.” Logistic regression analysis showed that awareness, knowledge, beliefs, and behavioral intentions were positively associated with moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity and level. The results were inconsistent for sedentary behavior. Although personal characteristics differed based on assessment item, they were mainly associated with age, education level, employment, and household income.Conclusions　This study revealed that the number of people who had awareness and knowledge of the Active Guide remained low. Those with awareness, knowledge, beliefs, and behavioral intentions were more physically active. However, the results for sedentary behavior were not consistent. Hence, further research is required to understand this tendency. A future longitudinal study is also required.

Objective: In 2009, “Must Read Papers 20 in Physical Activity and Exercise Epidemiology” was published in the journal, Research in Exercise Epidemiology. In the past decade, physical activity measurement, design, and analytical methods have been developed in the field of physical activity and exercise epidemiology; thus, research topics have evolved. Consequently, we selected “Must Read Papers 20 in Physical Activity and Exercise Epidemiology” among papers published after 2009 to provide useful information to researchers involved in this field.Methods: This study was conducted as a research project approved by the Japanese Association of Exercise Epidemiology (JAEE) and titled as “Must Read Papers 20 in Physical Activity and Exercise Epidemiology 2nd edition”. First, we extracted candidate papers that were recommended by JAEE members and the current project team. Next, the project team members prespecified the selection criteria and finally selected 20 papers through discussion.Results: We identified 39 candidate papers and selected 20 of them. Guidelines were excluded and the selected 20 papers included 12 observation studies, 5 intervention studies, 2 systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and 1 quasi-experimental study. Of them, 6 papers were from Japan.Conclusion: We selected “Must Read Papers 20 in Physical Activity and Exercise Epidemiology: 2009–2018.”Methodologies and research themes in this field will continue to evolve in future; therefore, it is desirable to select and introduce important papers periodically.

In the context of global population ageing and concentration in cities, the population aged 80 and over (80+) is growing rapidly. Japan has the fastest ageing population and longest healthy average life expectancy, while health decline becomes pronounced and care needs increase in the 85+ age group post the ‘average life expectancy’. The healthy ageing of older urban community dwellers is a pressing issue in world initiatives for sustainable urbanisation. However, for the 85+ age group, less is known about how promoting/inhibiting factors and their pathways influence healthy ageing, and related longitudinal studies remain insufficient. Using data from a longitudinal cohort study conducted from 2008–2009 to 2014–2015 among independent dwellers aged 85+ in central Tokyo (men = 203, women = 232), this study analysed the impact pathways of environmental, social, and behavioural factors on health and survival to explore promoters and potential risks on healthy ageing by gender, with multi-group structural equation modelling (SEM) and Bayesian SEM. For both genders, there was a positive chained pathway starting from friends as facilitators through positive interactions between 'social participation’ and 'active behaviour' to 'ageing-related health'. Additionally, their personal networks were small, suggesting that men with family-centred networks and women with non-family-centred networks require different approaches and supports. Implications of the results are discussed, and an organised social watch and support system, which becomes more important in the ‘new normal’ for urban dwellers aged 85+, is recommended.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine whether 1) health literacy is associated with the awareness of the Japanese physical activity guidelines (Active Guide) and 2) health literacy moderates the association between awareness of Active Guide and physical activity.Methods: A nationwide, cross-sectional Internet survey of 7,000 Japanese adults was conducted. The survey items included those related to the awareness of Active Guide, two physical activity variables (amounts of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and sufficient level of physical activity), health literacy, and demographic factors.Results: Logistic regression analysis revealed significant correlation between health literacy and the awareness of Active Guide. Furthermore, logistic and multiple regression analyses showed that the interaction term of health literacy with awareness of Active Guide was negatively and significantly correlated with physical activity variables. Further stratified analysis indicated that while awareness of Active Guide was significantly and positively correlated with physical activity among groups with low and high health literacy, regression coefficients for the low health literacy group were greater than those for the high health literacy group.Conclusion: The results implied that individuals with higher health literacy were more likely to be aware of Active Guide and that the positive association between the awareness of Active Guide and physical activity was stronger among those with lower health literacy than those with higher health literacy.

Physical activities associated with mobility are assumed to have a reciprocal relationship with the health condition. With the social momentum, including the extension of healthy life expectancy, health would be an essential element in future transportation planning. In this study, we summarize the existing studies on the relationship between mobility and health in Japan from the viewpoint of health-related indicators, mobility-related indicators, and their combinations. We clarified that both mobility- and health-related indicators could be divided into those commonly adopted by multiple studies and those independently adopted. In addition, while indicators related to awareness and intentions and manifest mobility and health status may be necessary, there are issues in applying standardized measurement methods.

High-quality diets and regular physical activity (PA) are considered healthy behaviors (HBs). HBs are associated with many health outcomes and are expected to improve quality of life. Although implementing HBs is important, the relationship between dietary patterns (DPs) and PA has not been well investigated, especially among those aged ≥ 85. This study used data from the Tokyo Oldest Old survey on Total Health study to examine the relationship between DPs and PA in a cross-sectional study. The dietary survey used the brief self-administered diet history questionnaire to estimate the intake of 58 foods. After energy adjustment, principal component analysis was performed to identify major DPs. A validated questionnaire was used to evaluate PA, and linear regression analysis was used to investigate the association between DPs and PA, considering confounders. A total of 519 participants were included. Three major DPs ('Various plant foods', 'Fish and mushrooms', 'Cooked rice and miso soup') were identified. 'Various plant foods' was similar to DPs previously named 'Healthy' or 'Prudent', and its trend was positively associated with higher PA. This study observed the implementation of HBs even among those aged ≥ 85, suggesting that a trend toward a healthier diet is associated with higher PA.

It is mandatory to manage musculoskeletal disorders in the elderly to prevent their becoming bed-ridden or requiring long-term care. However, the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders such as osteoporosis and sarcopenia in otherwise healthy people over 85 years old is not completely known. Here we enrolled 1026 healthy subjects between 85 and 89 years old and evaluated them for the presence of osteoporosis, sarcopenia and fragility fracture(s), and how those conditions were related. We also evaluated biomarkers such as serum levels of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and vitamin D status. The prevalence of osteoporosis, sarcopenia or fragility fracture(s) in these subjects was 22.4, 10.2 or 15.0 %, respectively. Serum IGF1 and 25(OH)D were significantly and negatively correlated with osteoporosis or sarcopenia. Osteoporosis and either sarcopenia or fragility fracture(s) were significantly related and shown to be risk factors for each other, even after adjustment for gender and BMI, while sarcopenia and fragility fracture(s) were not associated. Our data may provide a health platform for the very elderly and suggest strategies to prevent musculoskeletal disorders in this population.
