A 2011 Rush University study revealed that more socially active older adults suffer from fewer cognitive declines than their more isolated peers and are less likely to develop dementia.
Our data suggest that high-risk HPV-positive breast cancers are more frequent in younger women who are probably sexually more active than older women who have less sexual activity; thus, we firmly believe that high-risk HPV infections can be transmitted by sexual activity and could play an important role in the progression of human breast cancer.
Transcriptomic analysis of the maize endosperm indicated that 6 Meg genes are selectively activated in the BETL, and younger Meg genes are more active than older ones.
The more active an older surgeon is, the researchers found, the better the patients fare.
Crickets were more active when older and at hotter temperatures, and males were less active than females.
Achilles tendon rupture affects over 11 000 people each year in the United Kingdom, and the incidence is increasing as the population remains more active into older age.
For instance, while Sallis et al. [ 16] reported that younger children were more active than older children, the results by Uijtdewillingen et al. [ 17] were opposite.
The concept of feeling generally fitter was important and was discussed in terms of living longer for grandchildren, being able to enjoy life more fully and keeping more active into older age: "I mean I think the walking does make a difference, it certainly does… I don't do jogging, but walking certainly does, because it keeps you moving, keeps you fitter".
The smaller decreases in oestrogens than in two of the three androgens might suggest that the amount of substrate available only partly determines oestrogen concentrations, and that synthesis by aromatisation may become more active in older women (Misso et al, 2005).
Osteoclasts tend to become more active, dissolving old bone faster than osteoblasts can build.
