to Important Longitudinal Studies
The
Physicians' Health Study.
This
landmark study was begun in the fall of 1982 to test the
benefits and risks of aspirin and beta-carotene in the primary
prevention of cardiovascular disease and cancer. Twenty years
and more than 170 published research reports later, it is still
going strong.
Framingham
Heart Study
Cardiovascular
disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and serious illness
in the United States. In 1948, the Framingham Heart Study --
under the direction of the National Heart Institute (now known
as the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute; NHLBI) --
embarked on an ambitious project in health research. At the
time, little was known about the general causes of heart disease
and stroke, but the death rates for CVD had been increasing
steadily since the beginning of the century and had become an
American epidemic.
Framingham
Heart Study Prediction Calculator
Estimating
Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) Risk Using Framingham Heart Study
Data
This update of the
1991 Framingham coronary prediction algorithm provides estimates
of total CHD risk (risk of developing one of the following:
angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, or coronary disease
death) over the course of 10 years.
National
Cholesterol Education Program
This
is the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute Expert panel
report on the Detection, Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood
Cholesterol In Adults. The Executive Summary is a good
brief review of the problem.
Women's
Health Initiative
The
WHI is one of the largest preventive studies of its kind in the
United States. The WHI will focus on the major causes of death,
disability and frailty in postmenopausal women. The overall goal
of WHI is to reduce coronary heart disease, breast and
colorectal cancer, and osteoporotic-fractures among
postmenopausal women via prevention/intervention strategies and
risk factor identification.
The
Nurses' Health Study
The
Nurses Health Study established in 1976 by Dr. Frank Speizer and
the Nurses' Health Study II, established in 1989 by Dr. Walter
Willett, are among the largest prospective investigations into
the risk factors for major chronic diseases in women. A total of
122,000 nurses (Ages 30-55) were enrolled in Nurses Health Study
and 116,686 nurses (Ages 25-42) were enrolled in Nurses' Health
Study II.
The
Nun Study
The
Nun Study is a longitudinal study of aging and Alzheimer's
disease funded by the National Institute on Aging. Participants
are 678 American members of the School Sisters of Notre Dame
religious congregation who are 75 to 106 years of age.
Growing
Up Today Study GUTS
The
GUTS was started 6 years ago at Harvard University. With
some 16,000 participants, GUTS is one of the largest
studies ever of adolescent health. But even with all of those
study participants, you
are still incredibly important to
our study. Your perspective
on being a young adult is unique, and we want your voice to be
heard.
NHANES
The
National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is a
survey conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics
(NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This
survey has been designed to collect information about the
health and diet of people in the United States.
BRFSS
The
BRFSS, the world’s largest telephone survey, tracks health
risks in the United States. Information from the survey is
used to improve the health of the American people.
The
New England Centenarian Study.
The
NECS began in 1994 as a population-based study of all
centenarians living within 8 towns in the Boston area.
The NECS is the largest genetic
study of centenarians in the world with approximately 1,000
subjects enrolled including centenarians, their siblings and
children and control subjects.
The
Okinawa Centenarian Study
The
Okinawa Centenarian Study is a population-based study of
hundred-year-olds (centenarians) and other elderly in Okinawa,
Japan. The study began in 1976, after the Japan Ministry of
Health and Welfare confirmed initial reports of outstanding
health and long life in Okinawa through validation of birth
certificates and other statistical data. Since then our research
group has investigated over 600 centenarians to uncover clues to
their outstanding health and long lives. Studies have
concentrated on the genetics, diets, exercise habits, and
psychospiritual beliefs and practices of the Okinawan elders.
Clinical
Trials.gov
The U.S. National
Institutes of Health, through its National

provide patients, family members and members of the public current

be performed on each person. This will allow physicians to
tailor lifestyle, nutritional, exercise and medical programs for
your own genetic profile.
