Description

Although there is a regional disparity in participation rates for specific health checkups and health guidance in Japan, there has been no study that has compared trends in the participation rates in cities and towns in Mie prefecture. This study aimed to compare such trends and identify cities or towns that had significantly increased participation rates. The participation rate for specific health checkups and health guidance was collected from websites of 29 cities and towns. A simple regression analysis was performed to assess the association between participation rates (dependent variable) and fiscal year (independent variable). As a result of this analysis, the cities and towns with the highest increase in the participation rate for specific health checkups were Kihoku town (B=2.81, p<0.001), Toba city (B=2.48, p<0.001), and Taki town (B=2.25, p<0.001). The cities and towns with the highest increase in participation rates for specific health guidance were Odai town (B=4.38, p=0.041), Kameyama city (B=3.72, p=0.043), and Suzuka city (B=0.88, p=0.006). Further studies are needed to assess features of community health programs of the cities and towns with the highest increases to inform effective interventions that improve participation rates.
