EPIC-Elderly NAH project Overall aim To assess healthy ageing of elderly Europeans and identify associated environmental predictors by using baseline and follow- up data on environmental parameters, self-reported morbidity and cause specific mortality Specific objectives To expand the existing databank on European elders (EPIC- Elderly) with standardised follow up data on environmental parameters, morbidity and cause-specific mortality To create an information database on potential predictors of healthy ageing (an expert panel will deliver systematic reviews of the relevant literature)

List of age-related medical conditions* (inverse indicators of healthy ageing) 1.Myocardial infarction 2.Stroke 3.Hypertension 4.Diabetes 5.Weight 6.Depression 7.Neurological diseases 8.Osteoporosis 9.Fractures * Technical Annex and Decisions from the Plenary Meetings

Am J Epidemiol Mar 1;167(5): Epub 2007 Dec 3. A scientific paper containing the results of the literature reviews regarding determinants of healthy aging has been submitted. Analysis of weight changes in relation to mortality has been undertaken; results will be included in a scientific paper to be submitted until the end of the project A manuscript containing results of analysis with respect to determinants of fracture prevalence and incidence has been prepared and will be soon submitted to peer reviewed journals. Relevant public health reports containing a detailed presentation of data that are included in the EPIC-Elderly NAH databank per morbid condition are in preparation to be sent to the EC. A web site containing the experience of the project has been designed and will be finalized until the end of the project.
