    Abstract Japan achieved remarkable economic development after World War II, which has led remarkable changes in risk factors of atherosclerotic diseases and led to epidemiological transition in Japan. Nowadays, obesity is pandemic around world, which is same case in Japan. BMI of Japanese population, especially young adult men increased gradually since the 1960s associated with increase in intake of fat as well as decrease in intake of rice, which has been revealed by the annual report of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. Such changes suggest the change of dietary habit from Japanese style to westernized style. In recent years such changes in lifestyle has been accompanied by a gradual increase in serum cholesterol in the Japanese population, which is associated with increase in the incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Japanese guidelines recommend "The Japan diet" to prevent CVD, because there are several epidemiological data to show the cardio-preventive effect of fish, soy bean, and vegetables, which are the major component of "The Japan Diet". It is very important to recognize the diet habit is one of culture and that rice plays a pivotal role in "The Japan Diet".

    Abstract Introduction: Statins are currently the most effective drugs for lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and represent the first choice for treating hypercholesterolemia. Pitavastatin was launched as a new statin on the Japanese market in 2003, followed by Korea, Thailand, China, the United States and Europe. This review summarizes and evaluates new insights into pitavastatin, from clinical trials since 2010.
    Areas covered: This article reviews studies that compare pitavastatin with various other statins: i) Randomized Head-to-Head Comparison of Pitavastatin, Atorvastatin, and Rosuvastatin for Safety and Efficacy (Quantity and Quality of LDL): the PATROL Trial; ii) various Phase III clinical trials in Western countries; iii) The Comparison of Preventive Effect on Cardiovascular Events With Different Statins (CIRCLE) study; and iv) The Livalo Effectiveness and Safety (LIVES) Study Extension. Pitavastatin was found to have a similar LDL-C-lowering effect to other strong statins but also had a strong HDL-C-elevating effect and did not worsen glucose metabolism.
    Expert opinion: Pitavastatin has been launched in various countries around the world as a statin with potent LDL-C-lowering activity that is virtually unmetabolized by the cytochrome P450 family, with relatively few drug-drug interactions and no adverse effects on blood glucose. Pitavastatin thus appears well suited to long-term use.

    Abstract Although clinical trials provide useful information on drug safety and efficacy, results do not always reflect those observed in the real world. The Japanese long-term prospective post-marketing surveillance LIVALO Effectiveness and Safety (LIVES) Study was designed to assess the efficacy and safety of pitavastatin in clinical practice in ~20,000 patients. After 104 weeks, pitavastatin was associated with significant reductions in low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) (29.1%) that largely occurred within 4 weeks of treatment initiation. In patients with abnormal triglyceride (TG) and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) levels at baseline, pitavastatin reduced TG and increased HDL-C by 22.7% and 19.9%, respectively. Overall, 88.2% of the primary prevention low-risk patients attained their Japan Atherosclerosis Society LDL-C target, compared with 82.7% of intermediate-risk patients, 66.5% of high-risk patients and 50.3% of secondary prevention patients. Only 10.4% of pitavastatin-treated patients experienced adverse events (AEs), of which approximately 84% were mild and around 1% was severe. Increases in blood creatine phosphokinase (2.7%), alanine aminotransferase (1.8%), myalgia (1.1%), aspartate aminotransferase (1.5%) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (1.0%) were the most common AEs and only 7.4% of patients discontinued pitavastatin due to AEs. Regression analysis demonstrated that age was not a significant factor for the incidence of any AE or myopathy-associated events. A subanalysis of initial LIVES data focussing on the effects of pitavastatin on HDL-C levels showed that HDL-C was elevated by 5.9% in all patients and by 24.6% in those with low (<l mmol/L; 40 mg/dL) HDL-C levels at baseline (P < 0.0001). A time-course analysis showed that the elevation in HDL-C in the low-HDL-C group was enhanced by 14.0% and 24.9% at 12 weeks and 104 weeks, respectively. In contrast, previous studies have shown that other statins have inconsistent effects on HDL-C levels, with elevations ranging from 0% to 12%. According to a LIVES subanalysis, pitavastatin produced a significant increase in HDL-C levels in patients switching from other statins, suggesting that patients with an unacceptably low level of HDL-C might benefit from switching to pitavastatin. Further analyses showed an improvement in HbA1c in patients with type 2 diabetes after long-term pitavastatin treatment and a significant increase in eGRF in patients with chronic kidney disease. Results from the 5-year LIVES extension study (N = 6,582) showed that long-term treatment with pitavastatin was well tolerated and that the reduction in LDL-C achieved after 104 weeks was maintained for the duration of treatment, whereas levels of HDL-C continued to rise. Importantly, multivariate analysis of the 5-year data showed that, in addition to advanced age (≥ 65 years), male gender, hypertension, diabetes, and a history of ischemic heart disease, on-treatment levels of HDL-C and LDL-C were significant predictors for cardiovascular (CV) and cerebrovascular risk. In this study, the greatest reduction in CV and cerebrovascular risk was achieved by patients achieving both their LDL-C and HDL-C targets. Overall, results from the LIVES study show that pitavastatin is well tolerated and effectively modifies atherogenic lipid profiles, thereby reducing CV and cerebrovascular risk in Japanese patients with hypercholesterolemia. Pitavastatin's ability to significantly and continually increase HDL-C levels over time suggests a particular benefit for patients with low baseline levels of HDL-C and/or those that fail to increase their HDL-C levels using alternative statins.<br />

    Abstract Background: In April 2022, a new reimbursement scheme for hip fracture was implemented by the Japanese health ministry. Japan is one of the world's most aged societies, facing a significant, rapidly growing burden of osteoporosis and fragility fractures. The incidence of hip fractures is projected to increase from 240,000 in 2020 to 320,000 by 2040. In 2015, Fragility Fracture Network-Japan (FFN-Japan) was formally established as a nonprofit organization in order to create the optimal fragility fracture care system in Japan.
    Methods: FFN-Japan launched the Japan National Hip Fracture Database (JNHFD) in 2017, initially with only eight participating hospitals across Japan. The number of patients enrolled from May 2017 to the end of 2020 in the JNHFD from the 16 hospitals registered the patients during this period with amounting to 4271 patients in total. FFN-Japan invited officials from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) to participate in round table meetings to discuss the data collected in the JNHFD and to consider opportunities for nationwide improvement in hip fracture care.
    Results: The proportion of patients who underwent surgery within 36 h of arrival at hospital was 48.1% in 2018, 58.6% in 2019, and 44.9% in 2020 indicating the delay of surgery. Regarding secondary fracture prevention, initiation of osteoporosis treatment during the in-patients was 60.2% in 2018, 54.0% in 2019, and 64.5% in 2020 indicating the inadequate post fracture care. In April 2022, the Central Social Insurance Medical Council of the Japanese MHLW announced a new reimbursement scheme for hip fracture care including two key components: Early surgery (within 48 h from injury) and Secondary fracture prevention immediately after fracture.
    Discussion: The new reimbursement scheme of hip fracture care in Japan will catalyze and underpin major improvements on acute multidisciplinary care and post-fracture care with secondary fracture prevention. FFN-Japan played a key role on these policy changes to the health system by means the close collaboration and ongoing communication with the government.
    Conclusion: Within five years of establishment of the JNHFD, FFN-Japan in collaboration with visionary leaders from the Japanese government have successfully achieved a major reform of the Japanese health system's reimbursement of hip fracture care. This reform has laid the foundation for transformation of management of this debilitating and life-threatening injury that currently afflicts almost a quarter of a million older Japanese citizens each year.
