Comparative Biology of Aging presents trends found in comparative studies of aging. The Evolutionary Theory of Aging debates the models and hypotheses put forward to explain how aging evolved. [senescence.info]

• Falling

  BACKGROUND: Falls in older adults with cancer are common, yet factors associated with fall-risk are not well-defined and may differ from the general geriatric population. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  Many snowball' effects fall into this category. [longevity-science.org]

  Open All Close All Stepping On: Fall Prevention Program Stepping On is a program proven to reduce falls and build confidence in older people. Participants gain specific knowledge and skills to prevent falls in community settings. [county.milwaukee.gov]

• Weight Gain

  Professor Francesco Cappuccio says: “Short sleep has been shown to be a risk factor for weight gain, hypertension and Type 2 diabetes sometimes leading to mortality but in contrast to the short sleep-mortality association it appears that no potential [www2.warwick.ac.uk]

  If they try to consume fewer calories to avoid weight gain, they may not get all the nutrients needed—particularly vitamins and minerals. If older people stay physically active, their need for calories may not change. [merckmanuals.com]

  Dixon and colleagues ( 3 ) have argued that this “obesity risk paradox” in older people is counter to “decades of advice to avoid even modest weight gain”, and that current weight control policies may be doing harm in older groups. [doi.org]

  In a recent study [ 14 ], frequencies and phenotype of CD8 T cell have been evaluated in nonagenarians and centenarians by HLA-A2 and B7 tetramers that incorporated epitopes specific for Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) and Cytomegalovirus (CMV). [immunityageing.com]

Tetraploidy, a condition in which a cell has four homologous sets of chromosomes, is often seen as a natural physiological condition but is also frequently seen in pathophysiological conditions such as cancer. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
