Longitudinal association between body mass index-adjusted skeletal muscle mass and domain-specific progression of locomotive syndrome in community-dwelling adults aged 50 years and older

Koji Ono, Shingo Taki, Junji Nishimoto, Minoru Toriyama et autres

Locomotive syndrome (LS) is characterized by mobility decline in older adults and is associated with future long-term care needs and reduced independence. Skeletal muscle mass plays a crucial role in maintaining mobility. However, the longitudinal association between appendicular skeletal muscle mass adjusted …

Adverse events in exercise interventions among older adults with frailty: a study protocol of systematic review and meta-analysis

Satoshi Kurita, Ri Suo, Kazushi Maruo, Junji Nishimoto et autres

INTRODUCTION: Although several systematic reviews and meta-analyses have demonstrated the benefits of exercise interventions in older adults with frailty, the potential harm associated with these interventions has not been systematically synthesised. This systematic review aims to examine the adverse events reported in …

Differences in Item Discrimination of the 25‐Question Geriatric Locomotive Function Scale Between Younger and Middle‐Aged Adults and Older Adults: An Analysis Using the Item Response Theory

Shunsuke Yamashina, Kenta Hirohama, Junji Nishimoto, Ryo Tanaka

INTRODUCTION: The 25-item Geriatric Locomotive Function Scale is widely used to identify locomotive syndrome, a condition characterized by progressive decline in motor function. Although its reliability in older adults has been established, item-level properties across age groups remain unclear. This study examined …

Minimal clinically important difference in the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) for patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty: A multicenter prospective cohort study

Junji Nishimoto, Rikumi Kurahashi, Kotaro Tamari, Ryo Tanaka

BackgroundTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) is an effective treatment for hip osteoarthritis (OA), improving pain, function, and quality of life (QOL). The Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) is widely used to assess treatment outcomes; however, the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) …

Patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) thresholds for the Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS) after total hip arthroplasty

Junji Nishimoto, Rikumi Kurahashi, Kotaro Tamari, Ryo Tanaka

Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an effective treatment for hip osteoarthritis (OA). The patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) provides meaningful thresholds for patient-reported outcomes. However, short-term PASS after THA remains underexplored, despite its importance in identifying early recovery status, guiding timely …

Association between locomotive syndrome and pre-frailty in community-dwelling older adults: A cross-sectional study

Junji Nishimoto, Kazuaki Hamada, Naoki Deguchi, Ryo Tanaka

In super-aged societies, preventing frailty is a key public health priority to ensure longer, healthier lives. Locomotive syndrome (LS), defined as impaired mobility because of musculoskeletal dysfunction, is a modifiable risk factor for frailty. However, the relation between LS severity and prefrailty …
