We intended to establish a large population-based cohort study to determine environmental, lifestyle, and genetic risk factors of musculoskeletal and other age-related diseases, and to clarify the association between vitamin D status and such diseases. Methods: We targeted 34,802 residents aged 40–74 years living in areas of northern Niigata Prefecture, including Sekikawa Village, Awashimaura Village, and Murakami City (Murakami region). The baseline questionnaire survey, conducted between 2011 and 2013, queried respondents on their lifestyle and environmental factors (predictors), and self-reported outcomes. Plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentration, an indicator of vitamin D status, was determined with the Liaison® 25OH Vitamin D Total Assay. The primary outcome of this study was osteoporotic fracture; other outcomes included age-related diseases including knee osteoarthritis, perception of chronic pain, dementia, and long-term care insurance use. Mean ages of men and women were 59.2 (SD = 9.3, N = 6907) and 59.0 (SD = 9.3, N = 7457) years, respectively.

(2) Compulsory Education Under the compulsory education system, all children are required to attend and graduate both elementary and junior high school. Although the compulsory education requirement applies only to Japanese nationals, non-Japanese children between the ages of 6-15 living in Japan are able to attend elementary and junior high school at the same cost as a Japanese child regardless of their nationality. Additionally, in 1994, Japan ratified the “Convention on the Rights of the Child” adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1989. This convention mandates that the right of all children to an education must be recognized. While Japan does not mandate that the guardians of non-Japanese children force their children to receive an education, children are guaranteed their right to one.

  • A Mediator Between Young People and Local Companies to Save Our Town
    A Mediator Between Young People and Local Companies to Save Our Town 3103 Mimi Iwata Introduction A decline in population is one of the biggest problems in Japan, especially in the countryside. Minamiuonuma city, located in the southern part of Niigata prefecture, is greatly influenced by this phenomenon. It is inevitable for Minamiuonuma city to overcome this problem. In Minamiuonuma city, the number of young people is so few. The city hall has been carrying out some new policies that encourage young generation to come back, but they have not resulted well yet. So we need something new to address this problem. Problems The problem in Minamiuonuma city is the lack of young human resources. It leads to the decline in its industry and citizens will have difficulty living in, eventually. It will be difficult to improve the city’s overall industry. According to the survey of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (2017), the population of Minamiuonuma city decreased by 11.0% from 2000 to 2015. Seirou-machi, located in Niigata city, increased by 5.0%. Seirou-machi has the highest rate of increase in the population in Niigata prefecture. The population of 15 to 34 year-olds dexreased by 13% in Minamiuonuma city and has not so changed in Seirou-machi. It can be said that there is a big gap between Minamiuonuma city and Seirou-machi even if these two cities are located in the same prefecture. So we have to diminish the gap and solve the lack of young people. Solutions To solve this situation, I suggest introducing a UTA system, which stands for Uonuma Tactic Association.
