Longitudinal study of a nationally representative sample of adolescents in grades 7-12 in the United States during the 1994-95 school year. Public data on about 21,000 people first surveyed in 1994 are available on the first phases of the study, as well as study design specifications. It also includes some parent and biomarker data. The Add Health cohort has been followed into young adulthood with four in-home interviews, the most recent in 2008, when the sample was aged 24-32. Add Health combines longitudinal survey data on respondents social, economic, psychological and physical well-being with contextual data on the family, neighborhood, community, school, friendships, peer groups, and romantic relationships, providing unique opportunities to study how social environments and behaviors in adolescence are linked to health and achievement outcomes in young adulthood. The fourth wave of interviews expanded the collection of biological data in Add Health to understand the social, behavioral, and biological linkages in health trajectories as the Add Health cohort ages through adulthood. The restricted-use contract includes four hours of free consultation with appropriate staff; after that, there''s a fee for help. Researchers can also share information through a listserv devoted to the database.

The project has been collecting detailed panel data about the health, disability, demographic, family, socioeconomic, and behavioral risk-factors for mortality and healthy longevity of the oldest old, with a comparative sub-sample of younger elders, to examine the factors in healthy longevity. The baseline survey was conducted in 1998 and the follow-up surveys with replacement to compensate for deceased elders were conducted in 2000, 2002, 2005, and 2008, For each centenarian, one near-by octogenarian (aged 80-89) and one near-by nonagenarian (aged 90-99) of pre-designated age and sex were interviewed. Near-by is loosely defined it could be in the same village or street if available, or in the same town or in the same county or city. The idea was to have comparable numbers of male and female octogenarians and nonagenarians at each age from 80 to 99. In 2002, the study added a refresher sub-sample of 4,845 interviewees aged 65-79, and a sub-sample of 4,478 adult children (aged 35-65) of the elderly interviewees aged 65-110 in eight provinces Comparative study of intergenerational relationships in the context of rapid aging and healthy longevity between Mainland China and Taiwan is possible. At each wave, the longitudinal survivors were re-interviewed, and the deceased interviewees were replaced by additional participants. Data on mortality and health status before dying for the 12,136 elders aged 65-112 who died between the waves were collected in interviews with a close family member of the deceased. The study also included interviews and follow-ups with 4,478 elderly interviewees'''' children aged 35-65. * Dates of Study: 1998-2005 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International * Sample Size: ** 1998: 8,993 ** 2000: 11,199 ** 2002: 16,064 ** 2005: 14,923 Links * Data Archive, http://www.geri.duke.edu/china_study/CLHLS6.htm * ICPSR, http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/NACDA/studies/03891

The Charleston Heart Study (CHS) is a prospective cohort study of 2,283 subjects (1,394 whites, 889 blacks) in which risk factors of coronary disease have been examined for the past 43 years. The CHS began enrolling a random selection of community residents who in 1960 were 35 years of age and older ����?? including men and women, black and white. A unique feature of this cohort is the fact that 102 high socio-economic status (SES) black men were purposefully included. The primary hypothesis of the original study was to investigate racial differences in the manifestation and risk factors for coronary disease. Over the ensuing 40+ years, a variety of outcome measurements were incorporated into the re-examination of the participants, including psychosocial, behavioral, aging and functional measures. Subjects were initially interviewed and examined in 1960 and 1963. Subsequent interviews and examinations took place during the following time periods: 1974-1975, 1984-1985, 1987-1989, and 1990-1991. During the most recent questionnaire (1990-1991), the following topics were examined: general health, smoking, functional disability, physical disability, cardiovascular health, sexual dysfunction, cognitive disability, depression, coffee consumption, medication history, medical history, nutrition, and body image. In addition, serum samples and blood pressure measurements were taken, and a physical exam was performed by a physician. A search of the National Death Index was completed through the year 2000, matching individuals with date and cause of death. Vital status of the CHS study participants through 12-31-2000 is presented below. Dead * White Men 539 (82.5%) * White Women 500 (67.5%) * Black Men 281 (84.4%) * High SES Black Men 59 (57.8%) * Black Women 343 (75.6%) Data Availability: Datasets are stored in the National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging (NACDA) in the ICPSR as Study No. 4050.

A cross-national data archive located in Luxembourg that contains two primary databases: the Luxembourg Income Study Database (LIS Database) includes income microdata from a large number of countries at multiple points in time. The newer Luxembourg Wealth Study Database(LWS Database) includes wealth microdata from a smaller selection of countries. Both databases include labor market and demographic data as well. Our mission is to enable, facilitate, promote, and conduct cross-national comparative research on socio-economic outcomes and on the institutional factors that shape those outcomes. Since its beginning in 1983, the LIS has grown into a cooperative research project with a membership that includes countries in Europe, North America, and Australia. The database now contains information for more than 30 countries with datasets that span up to three decades. The LIS databank has a total of over 140 datasets covering the period 1968 to 2005. The primary objectives of the LIS are as follows: * Test the feasibility for creating a database containing social and economic data collected in household surveys from different countries; * Provide a method which allows researchers to use the data under restrictions required by the countries providing the data; * Create a system that allows research requests to be received from and returned to users at remote locations; and * Promote comparative research on the social and economic status of various populations and subgroups in different countries. Data Availability: The dataset is accessed globally via electronic mail networks. Extensive documentation concerning technical aspects of the survey data, variables list, and the social institutions of income provision in member countries are also available to users through the project Website. * Dates of Study: 1968-present * Study Features: International * Sample Size: 30+ Countries Link: * ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/00150

Human genetics data from an immense (78,000) and ethnically diverse population available for secondary analysis to qualified researchers through the database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP). It offers the opportunity to identify potential genetic risks and influences on a broad range of health conditions, particularly those related to aging. The GERA cohort is part of the Research Program on Genes, Environment, and Health (RPGEH), which includes more than 430,000 adult members of the Kaiser Permanente Northern California system. Data from this larger cohort include electronic medical records, behavioral and demographic information from surveys, and saliva samples from 200,000 participants obtained with informed consent for genomic and other analyses. The RPGEH database was made possible largely through early support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to accelerate such health research. The genetic information in the GERA cohort translates into more than 55 billion bits of genetic data. Using newly developed techniques, the researchers conducted genome-wide scans to rapidly identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genomes of the people in the GERA cohort. These data will form the basis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) that can look at hundreds of thousands to millions of SNPs at the same time. The RPGEH then combined the genetic data with information derived from Kaiser Permanente''s comprehensive longitudinal electronic medical records, as well as extensive survey data on participants'' health habits and backgrounds, providing researchers with an unparalleled research resource. As information is added to the Kaiser-UCSF database, the dbGaP database will also be updated.

A versatile 1D, 2D and 3D data viewer geared for cross-platform visualization of stereotactic brain data. It is a 3-D viewer that allows volumetric data display and manipulation of axial, sagittal and coronal views. It reads Analyze, Raw-binary and NetCDF volumetric data, as well as, Multi-Contour Files (MCF), LWO/LWS surfaces, atlas hierarchical brain-region labelings ( Brain Trees). It is a portable Java-based software, which only requires a Java interpreter and a 64 MB of RAM memory to run on any computer architecture. LONI_Viz allows the user to interactively overlay and browse through several data volumes, zoom in and out in the axial, sagittal and coronal views, and reports the intensities and the stereo-tactic voxel and world coordinates of the data. Expert users can use LONI_Viz to delineate structures of interest, e.g., sulcal curves, on the 3 cardinal projections of the data. These curves then may be use to reconstruct surfaces representing the topological boundaries of cortical and sub-cortical regions of interest. The 3D features of the package include a SurfaceViewer and a full real-time VolumeRenderer. These allow the user to view the relative positions of different anatomical or functional regions which are not co-planar in any of the axial, sagittal or coronal 2D projection planes. The interactive part of LONI_Viz features a region drawing module used for manual delineation of regions of interest. A series of 2D contours describing the boundary of a region in projection planes (axial, sagittal or coronal) could be used to reconstruct the surface-representation of the 3D outer shell of the region. The latter could then be resliced in directions complementary to the drawing-direction and these complementary contours could be loaded in all tree cardinal views. In addition the surface object could be displayed using the SurfaceViewer. A pre-loading data crop and sub-sampling module allows the user to load and view practically data of any size. This is especially important when viewing cryotome, histological or stained data-sets which may reach 1GB (109 bytes) in size. The user could overlay several pre-registered volumes, change intensity colors and ranges and the inter-volume opacities to visually inspect similarities and differences between the different subjects/modalities. Several image-processing aids provide histogram plotting, image-smoothing, etc. Specific Features: * Region description DataBase * Moleculo-genetic database * Brain anatomical data viewer * BrainMapper tool * Surface (LightWave objects/scenes) and Volume rendering tools * Interactive Contour Drawing tool Implementation Issues: * Applet vs. Application - the software is available as both an applet and a standalone application. The former could be used to browse data from within the LONI database, however, it imposes restrictions on file-size, Internet connection and network-bandwidth and client/server file access. The later requires a local install and configuration of the LONI_Viz software * Extendable object-oriented code (Java), computer architecture independent * Complete online software documentation is available at http://www.loni.ucla.edu/LONI_Viz and a Java-Class documentation is available at http://www.loni.ucla.edu/~dinov/LONI_Vis.dir/doc/LONI_Viz_Java_Docs.html
