Individuals were 70 years and older at the study's inception (mean age = 78.4, SD = 5.3) [ 8, 9].
Within this small sample, the studies that undertook some form of consultation did not appear to differ from those that did not on their breadth of focus, time of inception, current age of participants, or size of cohort although larger cohorts more often had a formal approach to consultation.
While reduced function of the RPE and Bruch's membrane are generally regarded as anatomic points of inception of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the choroid also plays an important role in AMD pathogenesis 1 with some investigators, such as Friedman and Oat 2 and Grunwald and coworkers, 3 suggesting a primary role.
The Helsinki Aging Study followed a randomly selected sample of 650 community-dwelling seniors stratified at inception into three groups: aged 75 years (239 persons), aged 80 years (212 persons), and aged 85 years (199 persons) (Tilvis et al 2004).
We applied this methodology to longitudinal data from the Berlin Aging Study (at inception total N = 516; age range = 70 103 years) to explore the structural dynamics among perceptual speed, verbal knowledge, close visual acuity, and distance visual acuity.
A total of 141 community-based adults with no diagnosed hip OA were recruited between 2009 and 2010 from the Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study (MCCS), a prospective cohort study of 41,514 residents of Melbourne, Australia, aged 40 to 69 years at MCCS inception (1990 to 1994), examining healthy ageing [ 15].
One hundred and forty one participants with no diagnosed hip OA were recruited as previously described [ 23] from the Melbourne Collaborative Cohort Study (MCCS), a prospective cohort study of residents of Melbourne, Australia, aged 40 to 69 years at MCCS inception (1990 to 1994) examining healthy aging [ 24].
