わが国在住の最長寿者における心身医学的研究(1) : ライフスタイル,ライフヒストリーおよび行動医学・認知機能  [in Japanese] A Psycho-somatic Study on the Oldest Male of the World Living in Japan with regard to his Life Style, Life History, Behavioral Medical and Cognitional Conditions  [in Japanese]

Abstract

九州地域在住の世界最高齢の日本人男性の心身医学的特性を調べる目的で,2008年1月20日時点でほとんど自立した日常生活を送っている112歳男性の生活歴,現在のライフスタイル,および身体的・精神的あるいは認知機能的状態を研究した.本例は,若き日々に本州で勉学と仕事に励み,帰郷後は役場で測量士の仕事をし,結婚した後は農業と畜産を天職とした.本例は飲酒も喫煙もせず,健康状態には敏感で,少しでも体調不良の際は医者に診てもらった.精神・行動医学的検査得点から,不安・うつ状態は考えられず,行動パターンでも低得点を示し,認知機能検査の結果では「認知症」の診断基準外の高得点で問題なかった.また家族のサポート,特に優秀な介護者の存在が不可欠であり,これらのことが本例をして稀有な世界最高齢者としての心身の健康な状態を保持させていると思われた.

Objectives (backgrounds): In Kyusyu, Japan, there is a 112-year old Japanese male, the world oldest man who is receiving no special care. In order to investigate psycho-somatic medical features of this rare case, we did research on him. Method and subject: We approached him for information of his life history, present lifestyle, physical and psychiatric or cognitional conditions. Results and Conclusions: In younger days, he lived, studied and worked in Honshu (the mainland of Japan). After coming back home, he worked hard as a farmer. He neither drinks nor smokes and gets along well with family, especially with his caregiver. Those results might have led him to these precious healthy conditions.
