In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has had unprecedented impacts on various aspects of the world. Each academic society has published a guide and/or guidelines on how to cope with COVID-19 separately. As the one and only nationwide association of academic societies that represent medical science in Japan, JMSF has decided to publish the expert opinion to help patients and care providers find specifically what they want.This expert opinion is a summary of recommendations by many academic societies and will be updated when necessary. Patients that each academic society targets differ even though they suffer from the same COVID-19, and recommendations can be different in a context-dependent manner. Readers are supposed to be flexible and adjustable when they use this expert opinion.

Background: The association between time spent walking and risk of diabetes was investigated in a Japanese population-based cohort.Methods: Data from the Japan Public Health Center-based Prospective Diabetes cohort were analyzed. The surveys of diabetes were performed at baseline and at the 5-year follow-up. Time spent walking per day was assessed using a self-reported questionnaire (<30 minutes, 30 minutes to <1 hour, 1 to <2 hours, or ≥2 hours). A cross-sectional analysis was performed among 26 488 adults in the baseline survey. Logistic regression was used to examine the association between time spent walking and the presence of unrecognized diabetes. We then performed a longitudinal analysis that was restricted to 11 101 non-diabetic adults who participated in both the baseline and 5-year surveys. The association between time spent walking and the incidence of diabetes during the 5 years was examined.Results: In the cross-sectional analysis, 1058 participants had unrecognized diabetes. Those with time spent walking of <30 minutes per day had increased odds of having diabetes in relation to those with time spent walking of ≥2 hours (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 1.23; 95% CI, 1.02–1.48). In the longitudinal analysis, 612 participants developed diabetes during the 5 years of follow-up. However, a significant association between time spent walking and the incidence of diabetes was not observed.Conclusions: Increased risk of diabetes was implied in those with time spent walking of <30 minutes per day, although the longitudinal analysis failed to show a significant result.

While it is well recognized that exercise represents a radical preventive and therapeutic measure for lifestyle-related diseases, it is clear that contemporary lifestyles abound with situations where exercise may be found difficult to implement on a continuous basis. Indeed, this has led to global expectations for elucidation of the exercise-activated skeletal muscle signaling pathways as well as for development of exercise mimics that effectively activate such pathways. It is shown that exercise activates the transcriptional coactivator PGC-1α via AMPK/SIRT1 in muscle, thereby not only enhancing mitochondrial function and muscle endurance but upregulating energy metabolism. Further, adipocyte-derived adiponectin is also shown to activate AMPK/SIRT1/PGC-1α via its receptor AdipoR1 in skeletal muscles. Thus, adiponectin/AdipoR1 signaling is thought to constitute exercise-mimicking signaling. Indeed, it has become clear that AMPK, SIRT1 and AdipoR activators act as exercise mimetics. With the crystal structures of AdipoR elucidated and humanized AdipoR mice generated toward optimization of candidate AdipoR-activators for human use, expectations are mounting for the clinical application in the near future of AdipoR activators as exercise mimetics in humans. This review provides an overview of molecules activated by exercise and compounds activating these molecules, with a focus on the therapeutic potential of AdipoR activators as exercise mimetics.

The use of the Internet-of-Things has improved glycemic control in individuals with diabetes in several small-scale studies with a short follow-up period. This large-scale randomized controlled trial investigates whether a smartphone-based self-management support system prevents the worsening of glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Individuals with type 2 diabetes (age range 20-74 years; n = 2,000) will be recruited, enrolled, and randomly assigned to two groups: the intensive therapy group and the conventional therapy group. Participants in the intensive therapy group will be supervised to use an automated Internet-of-Things system that demonstrates a summary of lifelogging data (e.g., weight, blood pressure, and daily activities) obtained from each measurement device and will receive feedback messages via smartphone applications to encourage them to increase their physical activity and to monitor weight and blood pressure. Participants in the conventional therapy group are allowed to use the same measurement devices as part of the routine diabetes care but without the Internet-of-Things system. The primary endpoint is the between-group difference in HbA1c levels from baseline to 52 weeks. This randomized controlled study will test the hypothesis that an Internet-of-Things-based self-monitoring system could effectively prevent the worsening of diabetes in individuals with type 2 diabetes. The expected results of the study should facilitate the development of novel strategies for both diabetes treatment and social health.

An association between psychological factors and diabetes has been suspected for a long time. However, epidemiological data on this association is limited. We investigated the association between psychological factors (perceived mental stress and type A behavior) and the onset of diabetes in a community-based, prospective cohort study in a large number of middle-aged Japanese adults. A total of 55,826 subjects (24,826 men and 31,000 women) aged 40-69 years were followed for 10 years. A self-administered questionnaire on medical conditions including diabetes and other lifestyle factors was performed at baseline and 5 and 10 years later. Psychological factors and diabetes were assessed based on the questionnaire results. During the 10-year follow-up period, we documented 1,601 incident cases (6.4%) of diabetes among men and 1,093 cases (3.5%) among women. The risk of diabetes increased with an increasing stress level, especially among men. Multivariate adjusted odds ratios for high stress compared with low stress were 1.36 (1.13 to 1.63) among men and 1.22 (0.98 to 1.51) among women. The risk of diabetes increased with an increasing level of type A behavior only among women. Multivariate adjusted odds ratios for high levels of type A behavior compared with low levels of type A behavior were 1.09 (0.94 to 1.27) among men and 1.22 (1.01 to 1.47) among women. We found an association between perceived mental stress and the incidence of diabetes, especially among men. We also found an association between type A behavior and the incidence of diabetes among women. In addition, inverse association between coffee consumption and the incidence of diabetes which was consistent with other studies was observed.
