Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is an anabolic hormone primarily involved in skeleton and muscle development during the first two decades of life. Recent studies suggest that, in older persons, lower IGF-I levels are associated with an increased risk of disability and all-cause (1) and cardiovascular mortality (2).Studies have suggested that IGF-I serum levels decline over the life span (3–5), but age-specific average levels in the population are still undefined. Additionally, it is unclear whether the annual rate of decline is constant or becomes higher at older ages. In the present report, we compared trends of age-related changes of IGF-I concentration across the adult life span from cross-sectional data collected in
