Corporate Motivation and Performance to Participate in the Government-Led Health Productivity and Management Initiatives in Japan: A Cross-sectional Study Using Text Mining.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to structure motivation for workplace health promotion (WHP) and explore the relationship between motivation and WHP performance.

Methods: We qualitatively categorized the WHP motivations written on the Health Productivity and Management (HPM) survey sheet in Japan. We then quantitatively analyzed the relationship between the categories and their HPM rankings using multiple logistic regression.

Late-Onset Ocular Hypotensive Effect of Ripasudil on Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma.

Purpose: We evaluated the late-onset ocular hypotensive effect of ripasudil after long-term administration in real-world clinical data and investigated its associated factors in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).

Patients And Methods: We reviewed the clinical patients with POAG who newly started ripasudil without changes of treatment. Enrolled eyes were assigned to two groups: positive group with the late-onset effect and negative group.

Standardized evaluation of diabetic retinopathy using artificial intelligence and its association with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease in Japan: A cross-sectional study.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is common in patients with obesity and diabetes and can lead to serious complications. This study aimed to evaluate fundus photographs using artificial intelligence to explore the relationships between diabetic retinopathy (DR), MASLD, and related factors. In this cross-sectional study, we included 1,736 patients with a history of diabetes treatment or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels of ≥6.

Estimating the probability of multiple incidences of the same cancer type in a single workplace.

Objectives: This study aimed to estimate the probability of observing 2 cases of the same cancer type in a workplace with 300 employees, to help investigation of occupational cancer.

Methods: We assumed a workplace where chemicals are handled, employing 300 males aged 15 to 64, with an age distribution standardized to Japan's population from 2016 to 2019. Using national cancer statistics for newly diagnosed cases among males in this age range and period, we calculated the expected number of cancer cases for the workplace over a 1- and 10-year period.

Association between ocular diseases and screen time and sedentary time derived from job-exposure matrices.

After developing job-exposure matrices (JEMs) for screen and sedentary time, we aimed to assess the associations between the JEM-derived exposures and various ocular diseases. We collected data from patients hospitalized from 2005 to 2021. JEMs were developed from 41,718 patients with occupational information and screen and sedentary times.
