To improve the identification of cognitive impairment by distinguishing normal cognition (NC), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and Alzheimer's disease (AD). A recursive partitioning tree model was developed using ARMADA data and the NIH Toolbox, a...
INTRODUCTION: Aging is characterized by gradual structural and functional changes in the body over time, with intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) representing a key manifestation of spinal aging and a major contributor to low back pain (LBP).
BACKGROUND: While the Cardiometabolic Index (CMI) serves as a novel marker for assessing adipose tissue distribution and metabolic function, its prognostic utility for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events remains incompletely understood. This investig...
BACKGROUND: Vascular disease in aging populations spans a wide range of disorders including strokes, circulation disorders and hypertension. As individuals age, vascular disorders co-occur and hence exert combined effects. In the present study we int...
Biological age (BA) and frailty represent two distinct health measures that offer valuable insights into the aging process. Comparing and analyzing blood-based biomarkers from the machine learning (ML) predictors of BA and frailty helps deepen our un...
BACKGROUND: Aging has become a global trend, and depression, as an accompanying issue, poses a significant threat to the health of middle-aged and older adults. Existing studies primarily rely on statistical methods such as logistic regression for sm...
This study aimed to identify key predictors of self-perceptions of aging (SPA) among older adults by examining a comprehensive set of potential predictors across physical, psychological, social, and demographic domains. Data from over 4000 American a...
BACKGROUND: The global increase in life expectancy has not shown a similar rise in healthy life expectancy. Accurate assessment of biological aging is crucial for mitigating diseases and socioeconomic burdens associated with aging. Current biological...
Brain age gap, the difference between estimated brain age and chronological age via magnetic resonance imaging, has emerged as a pivotal biomarker in the detection of brain abnormalities. While deep learning is accurate in estimating brain age, the a...
