Changes in the utilization of outpatient and visiting dental care and per-attendance care cost by age groups during COVID-19 pandemic waves in Japan: A time-series analysis from LIFE study
CONCLUSIONS: During the initial wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan, dental care utilization decreased in all age groups, whereas the average dental care cost per attendance increased. The COVID-19 pandemic may have changed the dental care provision pattern towards less frequent and more concentrated dental care to avoid the risk of infection.PMID:38583946 | DOI:10.2188/jea.JE20230323 (Source: Journal of Epidemiology)

GWAS meta-analysis of kidney function traits in Japanese populations
CONCLUSIONS: The present GWAS meta-analysis of largest genome cohort studies in Japanese provided some original genomic loci associated with kidney function in Japanese, which may contribute to the possible development of personalized prevention of kidney diseases based on genomic information in the near future.PMID:38583947 | DOI:10.2188/jea.JE20230281 (Source: Journal of Epidemiology)
