On the Limits of Chronological Age [PDF]
Annual Review of EconomicsAnalysis of population aging is typically framed in terms of chronological age. However, chronological age itself is not necessarily deeply informative about the aging process. This paper reviews literature and conducts empirical analyses aimed at investigating whether chronological age is a reliable proxy for physiological functioning when used in ...

Chronological and biological age
Experimental Gerontology, 1984Resuming the thread of previous studies, this paper reports a new method of assessing biological age with the inclusion of physical, psychical, and social parameters. The suitability of the method was tested on a total of three hundred and sixty-five subjects.

Chronologic Aging in Black Skin
The American Journal of Dermatopathology, 1989Histologic studies examining chronologic aging in skin have been confined to white skin. In the present study, we examined the features of sun-protected black skin from individuals 6 weeks to 75 years of age with light and electron microscopy. With age, the dermoepidermal junction became flattened with multiple zones of basal lamina and anchoring ...

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 1987
Chronologic age, by itself, is seldom a reliable index of an individual's ability to perform strenuous physical work. Therefore, age should not be viewed as a bona fide occupational qualification. Instead, each individual should be judged on the basis of his or her functional capabilities.

Nocturia is Associated with Biological Age not Chronological Age
Journal of Community HealthNocturia, defined as waking at night to void during the main sleep period is among the most common and bothersome of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). While widely viewed as an inevitable consequence of chronological aging, there is a considerable inter-individual variability as middle-aged adults may experience severe nocturia and older age ...

The Chronology of the Stone Age
Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society of East Anglia, 1911The object of this paper is to call attention to certain facts in connection with flint implements, both Palæolithic and Neolithic, which have been hitherto overlooked, and to attempt to find an explanation for them. This explanation must inevitably run counter to the generally received opinions of geologists as to the sequence of events in the ...

Chronological and biological age in HIV infection
Journal of Infection, 2010Several studies have so far documented the dramatic impact of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in improving survival estimates of HIV-infected patients. Within such a scenario, the growing impact of cardiovascular disease and accelerated biological aging is of particular concern.

Ear size as a predictor of chronological age
Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics, 1997It is generally observed that older people have bigger ears and noses. Cartilage is known to alter in structure with age. We conducted a cross sectional study to verify the trend between age and the size of two cartilaginous structures, ear and nose. A total of 100 young individuals were compared to older individuals with respect to their ear and nose ...

Analysis for establishing chronological age of bone
Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, 1982SummaryAn examination was carried out of the range of variations in the chemical components of human bone dating from 2100 to 2000 bpe.A comparison was made with bones of other ages. A definite connection was established in the samples, between the percentage of inorganic material and the age of the bone.
