BackgroundCognitive decline is a chronic condition which is characterized by a loss of the ability to remember, learn, and pay attention to complex tasks. Many older people are now suffering from cognitive decline, which decreases life quality and leads to disability. This study aimed to identify the risk and protective factors for cognitive decline of the older people from daily life and establish a predictive model using logistic regression.MethodsWe investigated 3,790 older people with health examination and questionnaires which included information associated with physical condition, lifestyle factors, and cognitive status. Single-factor comparison, principal component analysis with a Manova-Wilk test, multiple linear regression, and logistic regression were performed to filter the risk and protective factors regarding cognitive decline of older individuals. Then a predictive model using logistic regression was established based on the most significant protective and risk factors.ResultsWe found a significant separation along the coordinate axis between people with normal and declined cognition by principal component analysis, as confirmed by the Manover-Wilk test. Single-factor comparison, multiple linear regression and logistic regression implied that gender, age, hypertension level, height, dietary habit, physical-exercise duration, physical-exercise history, and smoking history could be closely linked with cognitive decline. We also observed significant differences in height, physical exercise duration, physical-exercise years, and smoking years between the male and female of the participants. ROCs of the predictive model by logistic regression were plotted, with AUC values of 0.683 and 0.682, respectively, for the training and testing sets. Although an effective predictive model is thought to have AUC over 0.7, we still believe that the present model is acceptable because the value is close to the threshold.ConclusionThe protective factors of cognitive decline for older people were male gender, height, keeping moderate exercising, and nicotine stimulation, and the risk factors included age, female gender, vegetarianism and hypertension. Except for the genetic factor, differences in lifestyle, such as smoking and exercise habits, may contribute to the observed differences in cognitive function between genders. The significant results could be utilized in the practice for the early intervention of cognitive decline in aged people.
Estimation of chronological age is particularly informative in forensic contexts. Assessment of DNA methylation status allows for the prediction of age, though the accuracy may vary across models. In this study, we started with a carefully designed discovery cohort with more elderly subjects than other age categories, to diminish the effect of epigenetic drifting. We applied multiplexing and massive parallel sequencing of targeted DNA methylation, which let us to construct a model comprising 25 CpG sites with substantially improved accuracy (MAE = 2.279, R = 0.920). This model is further validated by an independent cohort (MAE = 2.204, 82.7% success (±5 years)). Remarkably, in a multi-center test using trace blood samples from forensic caseworks, the correct predictions (±5 years) are 91.7%. The nature of our analytical pipeline can easily be scaled up with low cost. Taken together, we propose a new age-prediction model featuring accuracy, sensitivity, high-throughput, and low cost. This model can be readily applied in both classic and newly emergent forensic contexts that require age estimation.
Background It has been reported that the cognitive responses to physical activity (PA) in postmenopausal women vary by parity status, and women with higher parity show a significant association between PA and cognitive function. However, the potential pathways mediating the relationship between PA and cognitive function in women with higher parity remain unclear. The objective of this study was to examine this association in Chinese cohort and further investigate the mediating pathways. Methods A total of 2296 postmenopausal women were enrolled from the Baoshan District, from April to December 2020. All participant details were collected by interviewer-administered questionnaires, including personal information, medical history, lifestyle body mass index (BMI), cognitive function, nutritional status, and. In this cross-sectional study, generalized linear regression models and the chain-mediation analysis were used to examine the relationship between PA and cognitive function and the mediating pathways. Results There was a significant relationship between PA and cognitive function in the high-parity group (≥ three births). In the fully adjusted generalized linear regression model, PA was significantly associated with cognitive function [β: 0.795, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.251–1.340, P < 0.05]. The chain-mediation analysis showed that depression and nutritional status were two significant mediators, contributing 37.96% of the indirect effect of the overall effect. Conclusions Our findings suggest that PA is beneficial for women at a higher risk of cognitive decline, especially those with more than two births, and these benefits are mediated by depression and nutritional status.
Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in the host health in the aging process. However, the mechanisms for how gut microbiota triggers cellular senescence and the consequent impact on human aging remain enigmatic. Here we show that phenylacetylglutamine (PAGln), a metabolite linked to gut microbiota, drives host cellular senescence. Our findings indicate that the gut microbiota alters with age, which leads to increased production of phenylacetic acid (PAA) and its downstream metabolite PAGln in older individuals. The PAGln-induced senescent phenotype was verified in both cellular models and mouse models. Further experiments revealed that PAGln induces mitochondrial dysfunction and DNA damage via adrenoreceptor (ADR)-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling. Blockade of ADRs as well as senolytics therapy impede PAGln-induced cellular senescence in vivo, implying potential anti-aging therapies. This combined evidence reveals that PAGln, a naturally occurring metabolite of human gut microbiota, mechanistically accelerates host cellular senescence.
Background With the increase of the aging population,age-related health problems have garnered increasing attention.Compared to physiologic diseases with significant clinical symptoms,the mental health issues of the elderly are often overlooked.The underlying depressive states and high incidence of chronic diseases collectively contribute to a decline in quality of life in old age.Moreover,metabolic diseases,more prevalent in the elderly,significantly impact brain health,potentially leading to neurological damage and cognitive decline.Objective This study aims to investigate the relationship between depression,cognitive status,and nutritional and metabolic status among elderly individuals in the community.Methods We selected 3 767 elderly individuals who participated in physical examinations at the Youyi Street Community Health Service Center in Baoshan District,Shanghai.The demographic data on sex,age,BMI and waist-to-hip ratio were collected.The evaluations included the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE),Geriatric Depression Scale(GDS),Mini Nutritional Assessment(MNA),and Activities of Daily Living Scale(ADL).Metabolic syndrome-related diseases and the 10-year cardiovascular disease risk were assessed using clinical metabolic indicators,and Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlations among these indicators.Results This research showed that significant differences were found in age,MNA,MMSE scores,the proportion of people at high risk of cardiovascular disease and the 10-year cardiovascular disease risk grade among the different groups(P<0.05).Correlation analysis indicated that the GDS score was negatively correlated with the total MMSE score and its sub-item scores,except for the repetition ability score.MNA and ADL were positively correlated with the total MMSE score(P<0.05).Additionally,GLU and HbA1c levels were negatively correlated with immediate recall ability in the MMSE(P<0.05).Conclusion Our findings suggest that depression in the elderly is associated with cognitive decline,while better nutritional status is linked to improved cognitive performance.Focusing on and improving metabolic health in the elderly may enhance their mental state and overall mental health.
Estimation of chronological age is particularly informative in forensic contexts. Assessment of DNA methylation status allows for the prediction of age, though the accuracy and ease of manipulation may vary across different models. In this study, we started with a carefully designed discovery cohort recruiting more elderly subjects than other age categories, to diminish the effect of epigenetic drifting. We analyzed DNA methylation from a single genomic region of ELOV2, which was sufficient to construct an age-prediction model comprising 15 CpG sites. This model is further validated by an independent cohort as well as a multi-center test using trace dried bloodstains. The nature of our analytical pipeline, when combined the assessment of a single genomic locus with high-throughput sequencing, can easily be scaled up with low cost. Taken together, we propose a new age-prediction model featuring accuracy, ease of manipulation, high-throughput, and low cost. This model can be readily applied in both classic and newly emergent forensic contexts that require age estimation. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.

Background: The kidney is an important organ for maintaining homeostasis. Kidney-specific senescence plays an important role in aging; however, the mechanism underlying this process is still unclear. We conducted an analysis of renal function impairment in a group of healthy volunteers with a wide range of ages. The aims of this study were to investigate the age profile of kidney-specific aging, the characteristics of symbiotic microorganisms in urine and the aging mechanism related to these microorganisms.Methods: A total of 3342 adults aged 20–104 years were included in the study. Serum creatinine, urea nitrogen and glomerular filtration rate were evaluated by blood biochemical analysis to determine the typical age range of abrupt renal function change. Sequencing of the 16S rDNA of urinary microbiota was performed on members of the cohort in the age range of transition to declining renal function, and comparative analysis was performed.Findings: A decline in renal functional beginning at 50–65 years of age was evident. Urinary microbiota 16S rDNA sequencing was performed on 74 subjects from a distribution based on quartiles of renal function. Analysis of the sequencing results revealed significant differences between the flora in males and females, and significant changes in urinary flora with renal aging. Correlation analysis combined with clinical indicators revealed that the dominant microbiota in female subjects in the quartile of poorest renal function was closely associated with altered electrolyte metabolism, inflammatory activation and positive balance of energy metabolism during renal aging. In particular, our analysis suggests that Streptococcus plays an important role.Interpretation: The age at which early impairment of renal function occurs was confirmed and a multidimensional analysis revealed that changes in urinary commensal bacteria, especially Streptococcus, are closely associated with renal aging. This work provides a better understanding of the importance of microbiological studies in chronic kidney disease and reveals potential indicators for early detection of chronic kidney disease.Funding Information: This work is supported by the National Key Research and Development Project of China (2018YFC2000500/03) and Natural Science Foundation of Shanghai (21ZR1409200).

Purpose Recent studies have focused on whether kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) might serve as a marker of acute kidney tubular injury. Our study analyzed the levels of KIM-1 in the healthy population of different ages to explore the correlation between KIM-1 and age. Moreover, we constructed a model to predict kidney age. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted by Huashan Hospital, Shanghai, China, between April 2020 and December 2020. KIM-1 and other kidney biomarkers were measured in 176 healthy individuals ranging from 26 to 91 years old. Statistical correlated analyses for urinary KIM-1, creatinine (uCREA), potassium (K), sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl), plasmic renin, angiotensin-2 (AngII) and aldosterone (ALD), and serum microalbuminuria (MALB), β2-microglobulin (B2MG), cystatin C (CYSC), urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (CREA), and glucose (GLU) were performed to assess the correlation between age and kidney biomarkers. All variables were selected as independent variables for the prediction of age by multiple linear regression. Results KIM-1 positively correlated with age in kidney healthy people (r = 0.41, p < 0.05), whether among females (r = 0.51, p < 0.05) or males (r = 0.27, p < 0.05). It was much related to K (r = 0.34), B2MG (r = 0.28), and CL (r = 0.23). The predicted model was constructed with eGFR, Cl, ALD, CYSC, KIM-1, BUN, GLU and AngII, reaching an adjusted R2 of 69.5% and a standard error of the estimated 7.84 years. Conclusion The level of urinary KIM-1 increases with age in healthy people. The model constructed by KIM-1 and the other 7 biomarkers can predict kidney age in healthy people.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of cardiovascular disease in Shanghai Baoshan District Youyi Community elderly people,to compare the difference of 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease through different cardiovascular disease risk assessment systems. Methods A total of 1 983 cases of over 60-year old were enrolled from Shanghai Baoshan District Youyi Community. The baseline data were collected,and fasting venous blood samples were collected to determine total cholesterol(TC) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). The baseline data from the derivation cohort of each cardiovascular disease risk score [Framingham risk score,ischemic cerebral vascular disease(ICVD) risk assessment model,Reynold's risk score,SCORE risk score(Spain),SCORE risk score(Finland) and QRISK2 risk score] were compared with the baseline data of elderly people from Shanghai Baoshan District Youyi Community. Framingham risk score,Reynold's risk score and SCORE risk scores and Chinese Adult Dyslipidemia Prevention Guideline(2016 revised edition) atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease(ASCVD) risk algorithm were used to calculate the difference of 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease among elderly people in Shanghai Baoshan District Youyi Community. Results Among the 1 983 elderly people,there were 32(1.61%) cases with cerebrovascular diseases and 56(2.82%) cases with heart diseases. There was difference between the baseline of Youyi Community elderly people and the baseline of derivation cohort. The risk rates of Framingham risk score and Reynold's risk score in predicting 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease were 28.73% and 13.95%, respectively. The risk rates of SCORE risk scores for high risk region and low risk region were 7.29% and 4.14%,respectively. According to related guidelines,the risk rates of Framingham, Reynold's and SCORE(high risk region) risk score were stratified,and there were 11.29% cases in the same risk group and other 88.71% cases with difference in the stratification of risk groups. Conclusions The elderly people in Shanghai Baoshan District Youyi Community have high risk of cardiovascular disease. There exists difference among Framingham,Reynold's and SCORE risk scores in predicting 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease.
Objective To explore the correlation between sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in community elderly population.Methods In 2014,1916 elderly people (796 males,and 1 120 females) were selected from Baoshan District Friendship Community,Shanghai.We collected basic epidemiological data and fasting venous blood samples to carry out the detection of biomarkers,and then calculated their ten-year Framingham risk score.In this study,obesity,systolic blood pressure,fasting blood glucose,lipid concentration,and high-sensitive C-reactive protein were considered as CVD risk factors;Framingham risk score was considered as a CVD event prediction risk score.We analyzed the correlations of these factors with SHBG.Results SHBG mean values in the population with a history of CVD were lower than those without a history of CVD (P<0.001).The correlation coefficient between male SHBG and waist circumference,hip circumference,BMI,systolic pressure,cholesterol,triglycerides,high density lipoprotein cholesterol,apolipoprotein A,high sensitive C-reactive protein were-0.312,-0.307,-0.266,-0.113,0.155,-0.277,0.510,0.394 and-0.130,respectively (P<0.01).The correlation coefficient between female SHBG and waist circumference,hip circumference,BMI,fasting glucose,cholesterol,triglycerides,high density lipoprotein cholesterol,apolipoprotein A,high-sensitive C-reactive protein were-0.236,-0.248,-0.168,-0.183,0.135,-0.264,0.445,0.358 and-0.295,respectively (P<0.001).The decrease of SHBG level was consistent with the increase of Framingham score (κ =0.062,P<0.001).Elevated level of SHBG would reduce the risk of CVD in ten years (P<0.01).Conclusions There was a negative correlation between baseline SHBG level and CVD risk factors,positive correlation between baseline SHBG level and CVD protection factors in community elderly population;lower SHBG level indicated higher risk of developing CVD events.

Objective In order to provide the epidemiological data for clinical diagnosis , to analyze the distribution of urinary albumin ( Alb ) and estimated glomerular filtration rate ( eGFR ) in one-community elderly residents of Shanghai and the related risk factors .Methods A total of 1 154 residents were randomly enrolled from Youyi Community, Baoshan District.All of them were ≥60 years old.Fasting blood and first morning urine samples were collected to measure and calculate urinary Alb/creatinine (Cr) ratio(ACR) and eGFR by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration ( CKD-EPI) equation.ACR≥30 mg/mgCr and eGFR≤60 mL/( min· 1.73 m2 ) were used as the cut-off points to define albuminuria and impaired glomerular filtration rate ( GFR ) . The prevalence and relationships between risk factors and disease were analyzed .The eGFR was calculated according to modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation.Difference between the results of CKD-EPI equation and MDRD equation were also compared.Results Overall, 13.43%of the residents had albuminuria , and 29.98%of the residents existed impaired GFR.The abnormal rates of ACR and eGFR CKD-EPI increased with sex, age, prevalence rate of diabetes mellitus , prevalence rate of hypertension showed statistical significance between normal group and albuminuria group ( for sex:P<0.05;for the others:P<0.001).In impaired GFR group, all factors showed no statistical significances except age (P<0.001) and hypertension ( P =0.006) compared with normal group ( P >0.05).Compared with CKD-EPI equation, MDRD equation may get a higher abnormal rate of eGFR .MDRD equation may overestimate the abnormal rate and underestimate the eGFR levels of healthy subjects , especially in the elderly group and ACR normal group .CKD-EPI equation was relatively more accurate .Conclusions The prevalence of increasing ACR and abnormal eGFR is high among the elderly residents .Therefore, these individuals need to pay more attention to kidney disease , diabetes mellitus, hypertension and other risk factors .Clinicians should be aware of the differences of eGFR on the basis of different equations among different populations .
