Centenarian clocks: epigenetic clocks for validating claims of exceptional longevity [PDF]

open access: yesGeroScience, 2023
Claims surrounding exceptional longevity are sometimes disputed or dismissed for lack of credible evidence. Here, we present three DNA methylation-based age estimators (epigenetic clocks) for verifying age claims of centenarians.

A centenarian-only approach for assessing gene–gene interaction in human longevity

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2002
In this study, we introduce a centenarian-only approach to the assessment of gene-gene interaction that contributes to human longevity. This approach corresponds to the non-traditional case-only method in the genetic study of gene and disease ...

Centenarians

2020
As the oldest continent of the word, Europe presently faces an unprecedented demographic scenario. The number of individuals reaching very advanced ages is growing significantly, and within this age group a very particular one: centenarians. Living up to be 100 years of age, although reachable to only a few of us, is likely to become more common, and ...

Arrhythmias in Centenarians

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1994
Background: Many studies have shown an increase in the prevalence of arrhythmias with advancing age. However, little is known about arrhythmias in centenarians. Method and Results: Thirty‐two Japanese centenarians aged 100–106 years (14 males, 18 females) were studied. All of them had 12‐lead EGGs, and 22 also had 24‐hour ambulatory monitoring.

The EEG in centenarians

Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1976
1. The EEGs of ten centenarians were described. 2. In most healthy centenarians, posterior dominant rhythms are within the lower part of the alpha range (average 8.62 c/sec). 3. Although slowing of the posterior dominant rhythm at age 100 is greater than in younger groups, there is no evidence in this study of a progressive decrease in frequency during
