Comprehensive Health Checkup: What Has Become Clear (Overweight, High Blood Pressure, Liver Function Abnormality, and Hyperglycemia)
Based on the results of the Comprehensive Health Checkup from FY2011 to FY2022, longitudinal changes in major check items are shown.
●Participants being overweight
The percentage of overweight people (BMI: 25 kg/m2 or over) were higher among males than among females for all fiscal years. Among males and females aged 40 to 64, the percentage of overweight people showed a slightly increasing trend from FY2020 to FY2022, compared with that from FY2011 to FY2013.
●Participants with high blood pressure
The percentage of participants with high systolic blood pressure (systolic blood pressure: 140 mmHg or over) showed a declining trend from FY2011 to FY2013 for both males and females aged 40 or older. The percentage remained almost the same overall from FY2020 to FY2022.
For both males and females aged 40 or older, the percentage of participants with high diastolic blood pressure (diastolic blood pressure: 90 mmHg or over) showed a declining trend from FY2011 to FY2013. The percentage remained almost the same overall from FY2020 to FY2022.
●Participants with liver function abnormality
The percentage of participants with liver function abnormality (ALT: 31 (U/L) or over) had remained almost the same overall from FY2011 to FY2013 and from FY2020 to FY2022.
●Participants with hyperglycemia
The percentage of participants aged 65 or older with hyperglycemia (HbA1c: 6.5% or over) showed a slightly increasing trend from FY2020 to FY2022, compared with that from FY2011 to FY2013.
