Association between predicted level of water turnover deficit and all-cause and cause-specific mortalities among Japanese adults: The Japan Collaborative Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Although water is essential for maintaining health and life, the association between water turnover as an indicator of daily water requirement and water deficit and mortality is unclear.

Objectives

We aimed to investigate this association in Japanese adults.

Methods

A total of 63,488 (36,739 females and 26,749 males) Japanese aged 40-79 y in the Japan Collaborative Cohort Study in 1988-1990 were followed up their mortality through 2009. Water turnover was calculated considering lifestyle and environmental factors using an equation previously developed by the International Doubly Labeled Water Database Group. Participants were classified into sex-specific quintiles based on their water turnover. Water deficit levels were calculated from water turnover and di
