We used data of 402 men and 413 women who were not taking any medications, aged 20 - 77 years, in this cross-sectional in-vestigation study. Aerobic Parameters at VT i.e. oxygen uptake, work rate and heart rate, and exercise habits were evaluated, which are con-sidered to be cardio respiratory fitness. Pro-teinuria was measured by using urine strip de-vices. Forty three men (10.7%) and 29 women (7.0%) were diagnosed as having the proteinuria (± ≦). There were no significant relationships between proteinuria and exercise habits in both sexes after adjusting for age. Oxygen uptake at VT in subjects with proteinuria was significantly lower than that in subjects without proteinuria after adjusting for age in men. However, such link was not noted in women after adjusting for age (p = 0.9964). Finally, associations were at-tenuated after adjusting for age and exercise habits in both sexes. Among Japanese not tak-ing medications, proteinuria might be a modifi-able factor of VT, especially in Japanese men.展开更多

We used data of 721 men and 1,063 women, aged 20-79 years, in this cross-sectional investigation study. Parameters at muscle strength i.e. grip strength, leg strength and leg strength per body weight were evaluated. Proteinuria was measured by urine strip devices. Thirty five men (4.9%) and 27 women (2.5%) were diagnosed as having the proteinuria (+: 30 mg/dl) ≦). Leg strength and leg strength per body weight in men with proteinuria was significantly lower than that in men without proteinuria after adjusting for age. Grip strength in men with proteinuria was also lower than that in men without, but not at a significant level. However such link was not noted in women after adjusting for age. Among Japanese, proteinuria might be a modifiable factor of muscle strength in Japanese men.展开更多
