A note on age-related biomarkers.
نویسنده
چکیده
Forty-eight randomly selected age-related human biological functions were analyzed in order to establish whether or not their (linear) regressions were modified by age-related standard errors. Possible reasons for this are advanced. Statistically significant multiple regressions were obtained in 25%, and 21% of the functions yielded statistically significant changes in the correlations between data and age when partial correlation coefficients were calculated. The conclusion is that age-related data need to be subjected to the above tests in order to minimize confounding factors.

Background: The negative impact of age on reproductive success has been well demonstrated for women, but age-related changes in the male reproductive system appear to be more subtle. Diminishing testicular function is indicated by a decline in testosterone levels, accompanied by an increase in gonadotropins. Some studies have shown increased age-related numerical and structural sperm chromosoma...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death worldwide and continues to increase in prevalence compared to previous decades, in part because of the aging of the world population. Atherosclerotic CVD starts at a very young age and progresses over time allowing sufficient time for screening and early detection of the condition. Advances in biomarker research and developments related t...
