Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate the influence of the genetic variability of candidate genes on survival at old age in good health. METHODS: First, on the basis of a synthetic survival curve constructed using historic mortality data taken from the Italian population from 1890 onward, we defined three age classes ranging from 18 to 106 years. Second, we assembled a multinomial logistic regression model to...
