The Institute seeks to understand the nature of aging and the aging process, and diseases and conditions associated with growing older, in order to extend the healthy, active years of life. In 1974, Congress granted authority to form NIA to provide leadership in aging research, training, health information dissemination, and other programs relevant to aging and older people. Subsequent amendments to this legislation designated NIA as the primary Federal agency on Alzheimer's disease research. Mission The Institute's mission is to: * Support and conduct genetic, biological, clinical, behavioral, social, and economic research on aging. * Foster the development of research and clinician scientists in aging. * Provide research resources. * Disseminate information about aging and advances in research to the public, health care professionals, and the scientific community,among a variety of audiences. Programs NIA sponsors research on aging through extramural and intramural programs. The extramural program funds research and training at universities, hospitals, medical centers, and other public and private organizations nationwide. The intramural program conducts basic and clinical research in Baltimore, MD, and on the NIH campus in Bethesda, MD. |

Mayo Clinic Biobank (RRID:SCR_010723) | Mayo Clinic Biobank | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | A collection of blood samples and health information donated by volunteers, not focusing on any specific disease. Unlike many biobanks already in existence at Mayo Clinic and elsewhere, the Mayo Clinic Biobank is NOT focused on any particular disease. Rather, this biobank will collect samples and health information on patients and volunteers regardless of their health history. The only requirement is that they be 18 years of age or older, have a Mayo Clinic number, and be able to give informed consent. Once a participant becomes a part of the Biobank, they will be a part of ongoing health research conducted at Mayo Clinic indefinitely. The Biobank was established at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, and recruitment began in April of 2009. The goal of this project is to enroll 20,000 Mayo Clinic patients over the course of a three-year period in an effort to support a wide array of health-related research studies throughout the Institution. | blood, clinical data |

Lifelines Biobank (RRID:SCR_010730) | Lifelines Biobank | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | Overall aim of the LifeLines Study is to unravel the interaction between genetic and environmental factors in the development of multifactorial diseases, their concurrent development in individuals and their complications as a complex trait. The LifeLines database contains questionnaire data, physical measurements and biological samples from different health examinations. Collaboration is encouraged as it helps to maximize the scientific value of the wealth of epidemiologic data made possible by the participation of more than 165,000 individuals in the LifeLines Cohort Study. Primary objectives of the LifeLines Cohort Study are: a. Which are the disease overriding risk factors which predict the development of a multifactorial disease during lifetime? b. How are these universal risk factors modified, or what determines the effect of a universal risk factor in an individual? Specific research questions will focus on risk factors and modifiers (genetic, environmental and combined or complex factors) for single and multiple diseases. In addition to co-morbidity, LifeLines focuses on co-determinants. The primary endpoints include measures of aging, metabolic and endocrine diseases, cardiovascular and renal diseases, pulmonary and musculoskeletal diseases, and psychopathology. Secondary aims include the assessment of the prevalence and incidence of multifactorial diseases, their risk factors and their treatment in individuals as well as in families. The burden of disease for the society will be quantified in terms of care needed, and total costs of care. Until November 3, 2011, almost 68,000 subjects have been included in the study. The 60,000th participant was screened in the beginning of September 2011. Recruitment rate at present is between 700 and 800 subjects per week. The laboratory measurements which are performed has changed. As of October 2011, LifeLines will continue to measure: hematologic parameters, including hemoglobin, white blood cells, platelets, WBC differentiation, blood glucose, cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, serum creatinin and sodium/potassium. Liver enzymes, thyroid hormones, calcium, phosphate, albumin, uric acid and microalbuminuria will not be measured routinely. The samples that are available for almost all participants, are: # serum (taken either with or without gel separator) # EDTA plasma # citrate plasma # DNA # early morning urine sample # urine samples of 24-hour urine collection Any researcher who is member of an internationally recognized academic institution and who is interested in utilizing the research possibilities, data and materials of LifeLines may apply for access.

ALSA - The Australian Longitudinal Study of Ageing Resource Report Resource Website |
ALSA - The Australian Longitudinal Study of Ageing (RRID:SCR_013146) | ALSA | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | The general purpose of ALSA is to examine how social, biomedical, psychological, economic, and environmental factors are associated with age-related changes in the health and wellbeing of persons aged 70 years and older. The aim is to analyze the complex relationships between individual and social factors and changes in health status, health care needs and service utilization dimensions, with emphasis given to the effects of social and economic factors on morbidity, disability, acute and long-term care service use, and mortality. The study was designed to have common instrumentation with US studies. ALSA collected data from a random, stratified sample of all persons (both community and institution-dwelling) aged 70 years and older living in the metropolitan area of Adelaide, South Australia, using the State Electoral Database as the sampling frame. Spouses aged 65 and older and other household members aged 70 years and older also were invited to participate. The initial baseline data collection for ALSA began in September 1992 and was completed in March 1993. In the first wave, personal interviews were carried out for 2,087 participants, including 566 couples (that is, persons 70 years of age and over and their spouse, if 65 and over). Clinical assessments were obtained for 1,620 of the participants. Respondents were recontacted by telephone a year after initial interview (wave 2). The third wave of the study began in September 1994 and involved a complete reassessment, with a total of 1,679 interviews and 1,423 clinical assessments. To date, eleven waves of data have been collected, with the latest collection in May 2010, from 168 participants. Six of these waves were conducted via face-to-face interviews and clinical assessments, and five were telephone interviews. Future waves are planned, however are dependent on grant funding. Ancillary data collection has been ongoing since the initiation of the study, e.g., from secondary providers. Lists of ALSA participants are compared biannually with the agencies'' lists to determine the prevalence and incidence of receipt of services from these organizations. Another source of information has been the collection of data from the participants'' general practitioners about the respondent''s health status, history of services received, medication use, referrals to specialists, and current services provided.

Indonesia Family Life Survey Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Indonesia Family Life Survey (RRID:SCR_005695) | IFLS | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | A dataset of an on-going multi-level longitudinal survey in Indonesia that collects extensive information on socio-economic and demographic characteristics of respondents, as well as extremely comprehensive interviews with local leaders about community services and facilities. The survey is ideally suited for research on topics related to important dynamic aging processes such as the transition from self-sufficiency to dependency, the decline from robust health to frailty, labor force and earning dynamics, wealth accumulation and decumulation, living arrangements and intergenerational transfers. The first wave of IFLS was fielded in 1993 and collected information on over 30,000 individuals living in 7,200 households. The sample covers 321 communities in 13 provinces in Indonesia and is representative of about 83% of the population. These households were revisited in 1997 (IFLS2), 2000 (IFLS3), and 2007-8 (IFLS4). A 25% sub-sample of households was re-interviewed in 1998 (IFLS2+). Special attention is paid to the measurement of health, including the measurement of anthropometry, blood pressure, lung capacity, a mobility test and collection of dry blood spots by a nurse or doctor. In addition to comprehensive life history data on education, work, migration, marriage and child bearing, the survey collects very detailed information on economic status of individuals and households. Links with non co-resident family members are spelled out in conjunction with information on borrowing and transfers. Information is gathered on participation in community activities and in public assistance programs. Measurement of health is a major focus of the survey. In addition to detailed information about use of private and public health services along with insurance status, respondents provide a self-reported assessment of health status. Detailed information on the local economy and prices of goods and services are also collected. These data may be matched with the individual and household-level data. Considerable attention has been placed on minimizing attrition in IFLS. In each re-survey, about 95% of households have been re-contacted. Around 10-15% of respondents have moved from the location in which they were interviewed in the previous wave. In addition, individuals who split-off from the original households have been followed. They have added around 1,000 households to the sample in 1997 and about 3,000 households in 2000. Data Availability: IFLS1 data are available through ICPSR as study number 6706. Data from subsequent waves of the IFLS can be accessed from the RAND project Website. * Dates of Study: 1993-2008 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International, Anthropometric Measures, Biomarkers * Sample Size: ** 1993: 22,000 (IFLS1) ** 1997: 33,000 (IFLS2) ** 1998: 10,000 (IFLS2+) ** 2000: 37,000 (IFLS3) ** 2008: 44,103 (IFLS4) Links: * IFLS1 ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06706 * IFLS ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/00184 | interview, income, education, adult, child, contraceptive, survey, consumption, asset, individual, household, anthropometry, blood pressure, lung capacity, mobility, dry blood, work, migration, marriage, child bearing, economic status, health, health service, insurance, longitudinal, international, biomarker, blood | is listed by: Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) | Aging | NIA ; NICHD ; USAID ; Ford Foundation ; World Health Organization ; World Bank |

Dynamics of Health Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC) Resource Report Resource Website |
Dynamics of Health Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC) (RRID:SCR_008813) | Health ABC | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | A study that characterizes the extent of change in body composition in older men and women, identifies clinical conditions accelerating these changes, and examines the health impact of these changes on strength, endurance, disability, and weight-related diseases of old age. The study population consists of 3,075 persons age 70-79 at baseline with about equal numbers of men and women. Thirty-three percent of the men are African-Americans as are 46% of the women. All persons in the study were selected to be free of disability in activities of daily living and free of functional limitation (defined as any difficulty walking a quarter of a mile or any difficulty walking up 10 steps without resting) at baseline. The core yearly examination for HEALTH ABC includes measurement of body composition by dual energy x-ray absorptio��������metry (DXA), walking ability, strength, an interview that includes self-report of limitations, a medication survey, and weight (Measurements in the Health ABC Study). Provision has been made for banking of blood specimens and extracted DNA (HealthABC repository). Study investigators are open to collaboration especially for measures focused on obesity and associated weight-related health conditions including osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, pulmonary function, cardiovascular disease, vascular disease, diabetes and glucose intolerance, and depression. The principal goals of the HEALTH ABC are: # To assess the association of baseline body weight, lean body mass, body fat, and bone mineral content, in relation to weight history, with: incident functional limitation; incidence and change in severity of weight-related health conditions; recovery of physical function after an acute event; baseline measures of strength, fitness and physical performance; gender, ethnicity and socioeconomic status # To access the contribution of episodes of severe acute illness in healthier older persons to changes in body weight, bone mineral content, lean body mass and body fat, and the relationship of these episodes to risk of functional limitation and recovery. # To assess the impact of weight-related co-morbid illness on the risk of functional limitation and recovery. # To assess the ways in which physiologic mediators of change in body composition influence and are influenced by changes in health in older adults and contribute to change in body composition; to understand how changes in body composition affect weight-related cardiovascular disease risk factors such as lipids, blood pressure and glucose tolerance. # To assess the interdependency of behavioral factors, such as nutrition and physical activity, co-morbid health conditions, and their association with change in body composition in old age. # To provide a firm scientific basis for understanding issues related to weight recommendations in old age through increased knowledge of the potential trade-offs between weight and risk of functional limitation, disability, morbidity and death; to provide information critical for developing effective strategies for the maintenance of health in older persons. | african-american, man, woman, late adult human, obesity, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, pulmonary function, cardiovascular disease, vascular disease, diabetes, glucose intolerance, depressive disorder, dna, serum, plasma, cell, urine, platelet, blood, citrated plasma, edta plasma, red blood cell, scat-1, buffy coat, frozen, healthy, body composition |

Health and Retirement Study (RRID:SCR_008930) | HRS | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | A data set of a longitudinal panel study of health, retirement, and aging that surveys a representative sample of more than 26,000 Americans over the age of 50 every two years. The HRS explores the changes in labor force participation and the health transitions that individuals undergo toward the end of their work lives and in the years that follow. The study captures a dynamic picture of an aging America''s physical and mental health, insurance coverage, financial status, family support systems, labor market status, and retirement planning. The sample in 2006 numbered over 22,000 persons in 13,100 households, with oversamples of Hispanics, Blacks and Florida residents. Beginning in 2006, half the sample received enhanced face-to-face follow-ups that included the collection of physical measures and biomarkers HRS provides a research data base that can simultaneously support continuous cross-sectional descriptions of the US population over the age of fifty-five, longitudinal studies of a given cohort over a substantial period of time (up to 18 years by 2010 for the original HRS cohort, following them from age 51-61 to age 69-79) and research on cross-cohort trends. By 2010 the HRS will be able to support cross-cohort comparisons of trajectories of health, labor supply, or wealth accumulation for persons who entered their 50s in 1992, 1998 and 2004. The HRS also has provided the sampling frame for targeted sub-studies. The Aging, Demographics, and Memory Study (ADAMS) supplement on dementia involved a field assessment of a sample of about 930 HRS panel members aged 75+ to clinically assess their dementia status and dementia severity. Special topics including consumption and time use, prescription drug use and the impact of Medicare Part D, parents'' human capital investments in children, and diabetes management by self-reported diabetics, have appeared on mail surveys that have used the HRS as a sampling frame. The HRS also can accommodate a number of experimental topics using Internet interviewing. The HRS is also characterized by links to a rich array of administrative data, including: Employer Pension Plans; National Death Index; Social Security Administration earnings and (projected) benefits data; W-2 self-employment data; and Medicare and Medicaid files. The HRS has actively collaborated with other longitudinal studies of aging in other countries (e.g., ELSA, SHARE, MHAS), providing both scientific and technical assistance. Data Availability: All publicly available data may be downloaded after registration. Early Release data files are typically available within three months of the end of each data collection, with the Final Release following at 24 months after the close of data collection activities.

KI Biobank - Parkinson Resource Report Resource Website |
KI Biobank - Parkinson (RRID:SCR_008866) | KI Biobank - Parkinson | biomaterial supply resource, material resource | The primary purpose is to assess the importance of environmental factors for Parkinson's Disease (PD) in a population-based sample of Swedish twins. In PD discordant twin pairs, what are the environmental factors that contribute to the disease in the affected twin and or protect the unaffected twin? Second, we want to investigate whether the earlier reports of low heritability for elderly male twins can be confirmed for female pairs. All twins 55 years of age and older in the Swedish Twin Registry have been screened for most complex diseases. 626 twins have screened positive for PD and most pairs are discordant. To establish diagnosis, a physician will examine all potential cases and their co-twins and their medical records will be reviewed. Environmental factors will be studied through the use of discordant pairs, where genetic susceptibility to the disease can be controlled. Environmental exposures are being secured with telephone interviews and from a questionnaire collected 30 years ago. Recent results indicate that genetic factors play a very small role. A better understanding of the etiology of PD is important for the possibility of delaying onset or even preventing the disease, as well as for providing guidance for molecular biology studies. Types of samples * DNA Number of sample donors: 333 (sample collection completed) | twin, environment, environmental exposure, interview, genetic factor, gene, twin study, adult, middle adult human, late adult human |

Database for Sharing Aging Research Models (RRID:SCR_008691) | D-SARM | biomaterial supply resource, material resource |
THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on February 18, 2014. A networking site for investigators using animal models to study aging, developed to provide a venue for sharing information about research models for aging studies. If you have tissue or data from animal models relevant to aging research that you are willing to share with other investigators, D-SARM allows you to identify the model and provides a secure, blinded email contact for investigators who would like to contact you about acquiring tissue or related resources. Investigators looking for resources from a particular model enter search terms describing the model of interest and then use the provided link to send emails to the contacts (names blinded) listed in the search results to initiate dialog about tissue or resources available for sharing. The database is housed on a secure server and admission to the network is moderated by the NIA Project Officer and limited to investigators at academic, government and non-profit research institutions. The goal is to provide a secure environment for sharing information about models used in aging research, promoting the sharing of resources, facilitating new research on aging in model systems, and increasing the return on the investment in research models. |

Neuroimage Analysis Center (RRID:SCR_008998) | NAC | biomedical technology research center, training resource | Biomedical Technology Resource Center that develops image processing and analysis techniques for basic and clinical neurosciences. The NAC research approach emphasizes both specific core technologies and collaborative application projects. The core activity of the center is the development of algorithms and techniques for postprocessing of imaging data. New segmentation techniques aid identification of brain structures and disease. Registration methods are used for relating image data to specific patient anatomy or one set of images to another. Visualization tools allow the display of complex anatomical and quantitative information. High-performance computing hardware and associated software techniques further accelerate algorithms and methods. Digital anatomy atlases are developed for the support of both interactive and algorithmic computational tools. Although the emphasis of the NAC is on the dissemination of concepts and techniques, specific elements of the core software technologies have been made available to outside researchers or the community at large. The NAC's core technologies serve the following major collaborative projects: Alzheimer's disease and the aging brain, morphometric measures in schizophrenia and schizotypal disorder, quantitative analysis of multiple sclerosis, and interactive image-based planning and guidance in neurosurgery. One or more NAC researchers have been designated as responsible for each of the core technologies and the collaborative projects. | brain, neuroimaging, image processing, image analysis, postprocessing, segmentation, registration, algorithm, technique, brain structure, visualization, neurosurgery | has parent organization: Harvard Medical School; Massachusetts; USA | Alzheimer's disease, Aging, Schizophrenia, Schizotypal disorder, Multiple Sclerosis, Neurosurgery | NIBIB P41 EB015902; NCRR P41 RR13218 |

Colorado Assessment Tests - Card Sort Resource Report Resource Website |
Colorado Assessment Tests - Card Sort (RRID:SCR_007331) | software application, software resource, data processing software | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. CATs Card Sort is a free, general purpose card sorting program which allows the user to design sorting tasks similar to those described by Vigotsky (1934), Weigel (1941), and Grant and Berg (1948). Card sorting tasks have been shown to be particularly sensitive to frontal lobe dysfunction, but have also shown sensitivity to motor disorders, schizophrenia, chronic alcoholism, aging, and attention deficit disorder. The CATs Card Sort package provides extensive flexibility in the development of stimulus cards, allowing the experimenter to define the relevant dimensions of cards in terms of figures, letters or words, figure/letter/word color, card color, figure/letter numerosity, and a user defined dimension. Considerable flexibility is also provided in designing lists of to be sorted cards, sort criteria, and the criteria for sort classification shift. The package also provides limited analysis capabilities as described by Grant and Berg (1948). However, as with all CATs packages raw data can be copied to the clipboard in a format acceptable for import into commonly available spreadsheets such as Excel allowing the user to design analysis routines appropriate to their needs. | frontal lobe, alcoholism, attention deficit disorder, card sorting task, disfunctional, human, motor disorder, schizophrenia | has parent organization: University of Colorado; Colorado Springs; USA | Aging | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE | nif-0000-00210 | SCR_007331 | Card Sort | 2026-07-26 09:04:30 | 0 |
