TL;DR: It is suggested that asymptomatic stroke is an important factor in the development of VD, with age, prior stroke episodes, systolic blood pressure, and alcohol consumption being independent risk factors for its occurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decreased endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization to acetylcholine in smooth muscle of the mesenteric artery of spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Kenichiro Fujii,Mitsuhiro Tominaga,Susumu Ohmori,Kunihisa Kobayashi,Tokushi Koga,Yutaka Takata,Masatoshi Fujishima +6 more
TL;DR: It would appear that the endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization to ACh is reduced in SHR and this would, in part, account for the impaired relaxation to A choline inSHR mesenteric arteries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease in a Prospective Population Survey in Japan: The Hisayama Study
Masatoshi Fujishima,Yutaka Kiyohara,Isao Kato,Takao Ohmura,Hiromitsu Iwamoto,Keizo Nakayama,Susumu Ohmori,Taketo Yoshitake +7 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that NIDDM is a significant risk factors for both cerebral infarction and coronary heart disease and also that IGT itself is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease in the general Japanese population today.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and impaired glucose tolerance in the Japanese general population: the Hisayama Study.
Takao Ohmura,Kazuo Ueda,Yutaka Kiyohara,Isao Kato,Hiromitsu Iwamoto,Keizo Nakayama,Nomiyama K,Susumu Ohmori,Taketo Yoshitake,A. Shinkawu,Yutaka Hasuo,Masatoshi Fujishima +11 more
TL;DR: The population-based prevalence of diabetes mellitus in members of the Japanese community, Hisayama aged 40–79 years old by a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test was higher than those previously reported from several Japanese communities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol Intake and Future Incidence of Hypertension in a General Japanese Population: The Hisayama Study
Susumu Ohmori,Yutaka Kiyohara,Isao Kato,Michiaki Kubo,Yumihiro Tanizaki,Hiromitsu Iwamoto,Keizo Nakayama,Isao Abe,Masatoshi Fujishima +8 more
TL;DR: Alcohol intake, even light drinking, is a predictor of future hypertension among Japanese men, and all three categories of current drinking were found to be significant risk factors for the development of hypertension.
