Community-Based Health Screening in Rural Villages

Before each survey, we informed participants of the purpose and procedures of the study. The surveys were conducted at the village community center, the village temple or the primary school in the village site. Obesity, diabetes, and hypertension were classified according to the most recent WHO recommendations[31 (link), 32 ]. Participants received medical advice from doctors.
Random blood glucose concentration was measured on site with a blood glucose analyzer (Dexter ZII or Breeze 2, Bayer Medical Co. Leverkusen, Germany). Hemoglobin A 1c (HbA1c) was detected by DCA 2000® Analyzer (Siemens, Tokyo, Japan) or A1CNow plus (Bayer Medical Co. Leverkusen, Germany). Blood pressure and resting heart rate (HR) were measured using a brachiohemopiezometer (EW3106, National Co. Tokyo, Japan), and body weight was measured using a digital weight scale (HD654, TANITA Co. Tokyo, Japan). Height was measured using a stadiometer (seca213, Seca yk, Chiba, Japan). The measurement of waist circumference (WC) was taken with a measuring tape (umfangmessband 203cm, Seka yk. Chiba, Japan) in a horizontal plane, midway between the inferior margin of the iliac crest, according to the International Diabetes Federation consensus worldwide definition of metabolic syndrome[33 ].

Muscle Strength, Blood Glucose, and Lactate Measurements

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

Muscle strength was estimated by using a Grip Strength Meter (Columbus Instruments, Columbus, USA); three sequential trials were performed on each mouse bilaterally.
Measurement of blood glucose, lactate, and BUN. To determine fasting blood lactate and glucose concentrations, peripheral blood was collected from the tail veins of mice after food had been withheld overnight. Glucose (1.5 g/kg body weight) was administered orally, blood was collected 15-120 minutes after glucose administration, and lactate and glucose concentrations were measured with an automatic blood lactate meter (Lactate Pro 2; Arkray, Kyoto, Japan) and glucose meter (Dexter ZII; Bayer, Leverkusen, Germany), respectively. BUN was measured with a Urea N B test (Wako Pure Chemical, Osaka, Japan) in accordance with the manufacturer's protocol.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
