“…The ICOD-R is an ongoing large-scale survey (around 250,000 admissions per year from 34 regional core hospitals all over Japan) conducted by the Japan Organization of Occupational Health and Safety (JOHAS), as described elsewhere 20 – 24 . ICOD-R consists of approximately 4 million hospitalisation records collected since 1984 by one of the largest hospital groups in Japan, the Rosai Hospital Group, making it the largest inpatient database in Japan.…”

To examine the risk of incident cataract surgery associated with alcohol use patterns among Japanese adults. This was a case–control study evaluating 14,861 patients with incident cataract surgery and 14,861 matched controls. Subjects admitted to any of the 34 hospitals in Japan and aged between 40 and 69 years were included. Drinking patterns (drinking frequency, daily average drinks, and total amount of lifetime drinking), smoking history, lifestyle-related comorbidities, and occupational factors were surveyed by trained interviewers. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using conditional logistic regression models. For drinking frequency, ORs in the 1–3 days/week and 4–7 days/week groups were 1.10 (95% CI 1.03–1.17) and 1.30 (1.21–1.40), respectively. For average drinks, ORs in > 0–2 drinks/day, > 2–4 drinks/day, and > 4 drinks/day were 1.13 (1.06–1.20), 1.23 (1.12–1.35), and 1.16 (1.03–1.31), respectively. Both men and women had an increased risk of incident cataract surgery with increased total lifetime drinking, with a significant increase in risk occurring at > 90 drink-years for men and > 40 drink-years for women. A positive dose–response relationship was observed between alcohol consumption and cataract. Restricted drinking may help to reduce the progression of cataracts.

“…We conducted this study using the ICOD-R, a largescale survey by the Japan Organization of Occupational Health and Safety (JOHAS), which includes approximately 250,000 cases per year from 34 regional core hospitals, as described elsewhere. [24][25][26][27][28] The ICOD-R is a detailed investigation of diseases, lifestyles, and working conditions, including medical chart information confirmed by physicians. Clinical diagnoses were coded according to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th revision (ICD-10).…”

Précis: In this case-control study of the Japanese population, including 3207 glaucoma cases, alcohol consumption patterns such as frequency and quantity showed a positive association with glaucoma prevalence. Purpose: To examine the association between alcohol consumption patterns and glaucoma. Patients and Methods: This case-control study evaluated 3207 cases with glaucoma and 3207 matched controls. Patients over 40 years of age were included from 1,693,611 patients admitted to 34 hospitals in Japan. Detailed alcohol consumption patterns (drinking frequency, average daily drinks, and total lifetime drinks) were obtained, as well as various confounding factors, including smoking history and lifestyle-related comorbidities. Conditional logistic regression models were used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for glaucoma prevalence. Results: Drinking frequency showed an association with glaucoma for “a few days/week” (OR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.03–1.38) and “almost every day/week” (1.40; 1.18–1.66). Average daily drinks showed an association for “>0–2 drinks/day” (1.16; 1.03–1.32). Total lifetime drinks showed an association for “>60–90 drink-year” (1.23; 1.01–1.49) and “>90 drink-year” (1.23; 1.05–1.44). As alcohol consumption levels differed considerably between men and women, additional analyses were conducted separately for men and women. Among men, drinking frequency of “a few days/week” and “almost every day/week,” average daily drinks of “>0–2 drinks/day” and “>2–4 drinks/day,” and total lifetime drinks of “>60–90 drink-year” and “>90 drink-year” had an association with glaucoma. Conversely, among women, neither drinking frequency, average daily drinks, nor total lifetime drinks were associated. Conclusions: Both the frequency and quantity of alcohol consumption were associated with glaucoma. Further research on gender differences is warranted.

ObjectivesIn Japan, the risk of developing cancer among workers employed in workplaces where chemical substances are handled is unclear. This study aimed to assess the association between cancer risk and employment in workplaces handling hazardous chemicals.MethodsThe Inpatient Clinico-Occupational Survey of the Rosai Hospital Group data of 120 278 male patients with incident cancer and 217 605 hospital controls matched for 5-year age group, hospital (34 hospitals) and year of admission (2005–2019) were analysed. Cancer risk in relation to lifetime employment in workplaces using regulated chemicals was assessed while controlling for age, region and year of diagnosis, smoking, alcohol consumption and occupation. Further analysis stratified by smoking history was performed to examine interaction effects.ResultsIn the longest group of employment in tertiles, ORs were increased for all cancers (OR=1.13; 95% CI: 1.07 to 1.19) and lung (OR=1.82; 95% CI: 1.56 to 2.13), oesophageal (OR=1.73; 95% CI: 1.18 to 2.55), pancreatic (OR=2.03; 95% CI: 1.40 to 2.94) and bladder (OR=1.40; 95% CI: 1.12 to 1.74) cancers. Employment of 1+ years was associated with risk for lung cancer; 11+ years for pancreatic and bladder cancers; and 21+ years for all cancers and oesophageal cancer. These positive relationships were particularly obvious among patients with a history of smoking; however, no significant interaction between smoking and length of employment was observed.ConclusionsThere is a high risk of cancer among workers, especially smokers, employed in workplaces handling regulated chemicals in Japan. Thus, future measures for chemical management in workplaces are needed to prevent avoidable cancers.
