Population biology of human aging: methods of assessment and sex variation.

Human biology - 1 Feb 1995

Kobyliansky E, Livshits G, Pavlovsky O

Abstract excerpt

Biological age, as assessed by osteographic measurements of hand bones from radiograms, was estimated in about 7000 individuals belonging to 32 ethnic groups and samples and to 2 major human groups (Europeans and Asians). Individual ages in the total group varied between 16 and 99 years old. Our biological age measure is strongly correlated with chronological age of the individual (Pearson's r = 0.78-0.80, p <...
