The effects of berry juice on cognitive decline in older adults : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Master of Arts in Psychology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2005
This study examined the effects of blackcurrant and boysenberry juices on cognitive processes in older adults. Current research suggests that fruits such as these may be able to reverse some of the effects of ageing on cognition.

An Emerging Longevity Blue Zone in Sicily: The Case of Caltabellotta and the Sicani Mountains

Journal of Ageing and Longevity
Blue Zones (BZs) are regions across the world associated with exceptional human longevity, where individuals routinely live into their 90s and beyond. These areas share distinct lifestyle and environmental factors that promote healthy aging.

Long-term calorie restriction in humans is not associated with indices of delayed immunologic aging: A descriptive study. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Delayed immunologic aging is purported to be a major mechanism through which calorie restriction (CR) exerts its anti-aging effects in non-human species.

Zinc, metallothioneins and immunosenescence [PDF]

Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2010
Ageing is an inevitable biological process with gradual and spontaneous biochemical and physiological changes and increased susceptibility to diseases. The nutritional factor, zinc, may remodel these changes with subsequent healthy ageing, because zinc improves the inflammatory/immune response as shown byin vitroandin vivostudies.

Diagnostic modulation of subgingival proteomic biomarkers by age and smoking habits in periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although age and smoking influence the periodontal proteome, their impact on subgingival biomarkers for diagnosing periodontitis remains unclear. This multicenter study assessed their influence on subgingival proteins for disease detection.

Alteration of T cell subtypes in beta-thalassaemia major: Impact of ferritin level [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction: Oxidative damage and regular antigenic stimulation are main factors in accelerating immunosenescence. The present study was conducted to investigate new concepts of early immunosenescence in thalassaemia patients.

Age‐related local versus systemic early phase wound healing dynamics following free gingival graft harvest

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Free palatal gingival grafts (FGG) are commonly harvested during mucogingival procedures. The present study investigates age‐related local and systemic early secondary wound healing outcomes, following FGG harvest in a rat model. Methods A 4.2 mm diameter defect was created in the palate of 24 younger (2 m) and 24 older (6 m) Wistar
