Measure	Time frame
(1) Basic information Gender, age, medical history, comorbidities, medications, Body Mass Index (BMI), years of education, physical frailty measurements (weight loss, muscle weakness, fatigue, walking speed, and physical inactivity) using the Japanese version of the Cardiovascular Health Study criteria (J-CHS criteria), cognitive function measurements using the National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology functional assessment tool (NCGG-FAT), and the Geriatric depression scale ), cognitive function measures using the National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology functional assessment tool (NCGG-FAT), the Geriatric depression scale-15 (GDS-15), the Geriatric depression scale (GDS-15), the National Center for Geriatrics and Gerontology functional assessment tool (NCGG-FAT). (2) Rest-Activity (1) Cognitive function (2) Social frailty (3) Social depression (4) Social frailty (5) Social depression (6) Social depression (7) Social frailty (8) Social depression (9) Social frailty (10) Social depression (11) Social depression (12) Social depression (13) Social frailty (14) (2) Measurement of Rest-Activity Rhythm (RAR) index A wearable device, Motionwatch8 (CamNtech, UK), will be used to measure the number of steps taken in daily life and the amount of sleep at night. Each subject wears the wearable device on the non-dominant hand for 7 consecutive days, and Motionwatch8 is worn on the wrist of the non-dominant hand for 7 consecutive days. Body movements are detected by the device's built-in 3-axis acceleration sensor, and Activity Count (AC) is recorded for each minute of physical activity. The recorded data are then output using analysis software Motionware (CamNtech, UK) and Actiware (Philips, USA), and converted into RAR indices.	—
