Ageing, neurodegeneration and Parkinson's disease.
Age is the largest risk factor for the development and progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). Ageing affects many cellular processes that predispose to neurodegeneration, and age-related changes in cellular function predispose to the pathogenesis of PD. The accumulation of age-related somatic damage combined with a failure of compensatory mechanisms may lead to an acceleration of PD with age....
متن کاملVisual Facial Ageing using PLS - Visual Ageing of Human Faces in Three Dimensions using Morphable Models and Projection to Latent Structures
We present an approach to synthesising the effects of ageing on human face images using three-dimensional modelling. We extract a set of three dimensional face models from a set of two-dimensional face images by fitting a Morphable Model. We propose a method to age these face models using Partial Least Squares to extract from the data-set those factors most related to ageing. These ageing relat...
متن کاملUnderstanding the physiology of the ageing individual: computational modelling of changes in metabolism and endurance.
Ageing and lifespan are strongly affected by metabolism. The maximal possible uptake of oxygen is not only a good predictor of performance in endurance sports, but also of life expectancy. Figuratively speaking, healthy ageing is a competitive sport. Although the root cause of ageing is damage to macromolecules, it is the balance with repair processes that is decisive. Reduced or intermittent n...
متن کاملNon-Communicable Disease Mortality among a Sample of Older People in Iran from 2007 to 2018
Introduction: Increasing age is one of the most important predictors of mortality among aged population. Therefore, determining the causes of death among older people could be imperative. The purpose of this study was to investigate non-communicable disease mortality among a sample of older people in Iran from 2007 to 2018. Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study that applied censu...
متن کاملQuantification the Effect of Ageing on Characteristics of the Photoplethysmogram Using an Optimized Windkessel Model
Background: With increasing age, some changes appeared in specifications of vessels which including dimensions and elasticity in their. The changes in parameters such as resistance, inertance and compliance vessels appear and eventually changes in the environmental pulse releases are in circulation. These changes clearly appear in specification of photoplethysmogram particularly in the size and...
