Personal expectations of ageing shape our social lives
"A 10-year study shows that expectations of one's own ageing are a 'self-fulfilling prophecy'"
National and regional lifetime risks of developing and dying from digestive system cancers in China: findings of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023
"A comprehensive assessment of long-term cancer threat adjusted for competing risks and population aging"
Higher TMAO levels linked to cardiometabolic risk and brain atrophy in older adults
"“Summarized, TMAO is associated with higher age, cardiometabolic risk factors and brain atrophy, while there was no difference between the two sexes of this community-dwelling elderly cohort”"
Movement span: Extending the discourse on aging beyond life span and health span
"Rethinking aging: New “movement span” framework adds a third dimension to longevity and health research"
Higher cardiorespiratory fitness is associated with a slower age-related decline in kidney function
"As Japan's population continues to age, age-related declines in kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are becoming increasingly prevalent, underscoring the need for effective preventive strategies. Despite growing interest in the health benefits of cardiorespiratory fitness, its relationship with future kidney function decline remains poorly understood, particularly among individuals with preserved kidney function. To address this gap, researchers investigated whether higher cardiorespiratory fitness, a measure of whole-body endurance capacity, is associated with a slower age-related decline in kidney function."
Healthy aging: Training the mind and emotional skills helps keep the brain healthy
"Two studies from SISSA show that cognitive reserve built over a lifetime, together with emotional resources, helps preserve mental abilities in adults over 65"
Detailed map based on studying over 300 women reveals molecular aging varies from person to person
"Aging does not appear to follow the same molecular script for everyone, according to an eight-year study of 335 women. The findings reveal that individual molecular trajectories of aging can diverge substantially from population-wide patterns and are shaped not only by genetics but also by factors such as circadian rhythm, seasonality, and environmental exposures.
