Nutritional Factors In Aging, Health, And Disease

工作总结：通过定期收集7天的饮食日记和测量血浆中维生素水平，对巴尔的摩衰老纵向研究（BLSA）的男性和女性参与者进行了营养评估。该饮食技术提供了39年男性和19年女性的数据。参与者的年龄从20岁到95岁不等。由于BLSA是一项多学科研究，因此有可能在营养摄入量与许多其他相关变量以及许多临床结果之间进行相关性研究。我们正在与美国农业部和HNRCA的科学家合作，继续收集7天的食物摄入日记。90年代浪潮的数据收集的完成将允许对60年代、70年代、80年代和90年代的饮食摄入量进行纵向分析——这是一种无与伦比的经历。

Summary of work: Nutrition evaluation in the male and female participants of the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA) has been carried out by periodic collection of 7-day dietary diaries and by measurement of vitamin levels in plasma. The dietary technique has provided data over a 39 year period in men and a 19 year period in women. The ages of the participants range from 20 to 95 years. Since the BLSA is a multi-disciplinary study, it is possible to carry out correlations between nutritional intakes, and many other related variables, as well as a number of clinical outcomes. We are continuing the collection of 7-day food intake diaries in collaboration with USDA and HNRCA scientists. The completion of data collection for the 1990's wave will allow longitudinal analysis of dietary intakes in the 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, and 1990's - an unmatched experience.
