Data on Aging in a Cohort Followed for 61 Years
This epidemiological study spans an impressive 61-year period, shedding light on the impact of lifestyle choices and chronic diseases on longevity. While no definitive therapies have surpassed the influence of lifestyle choices on life expectancy, ongoing research into options like senolytic therapies holds promise.
The study delves into determinants of longevity in a cohort of middle-aged men over 61 years. Baseline measurements at enrollment and follow-up at years 31 and 61 highlighted cardiovascular risk factors, lifestyle habits, and chronic diseases as key predictors of survival. Chronic diseases emerged as independent predictors, emphasizing the enduring influence of lifestyle choices and major chronic illnesses on lifespan.
