Heterogeneity of Human Aging and Its Assessment

23 May 2016

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the heterogeneity in health of older adults is a compelling question in the biology of aging. We analyzed the performance of five measures of health heterogeneity, judging them by their ability to predict mortality. Using clinical and biomarker data on 1,013 participants of the Canadian Study of Health and Aging who were followed for up to 6 years, we calculated two indices of biological age using...
