Healthy centenarians?

  • Are centenarians people harbouring a subpopulation protected

against some diseases like cancer, dementia…?

  • ”Centenarians are the best examples of successful ageing as

they have escaped major age-related diseases and have reached the extreme end of human life”

  • Candore et al. 1997
  • ”Healthy centenarians do not exist, but autonomous do!”
  • Andersen-Ranberg et al. 2001
  • Scientific interest as a human model of relative resistance to

dementia?

  • Falls
  • Symptoms
  • Cardio-vascular diseases
  • Multimorbidity

Results

  • More common in FRANCE and SWITZERLAND
  • Heart diseases
  • Roughly similar across countries
  • Stroke
  • COPD
  • Diabetes
  • Symptoms
  • Falls
  • Multimorbidity
  • High 5+ diseases in CH

Centenarians are not healthy in terms of disease

Multivariate logistic regression

  • Adjusting for sex, education, nursing home residency, ADL limitations,

and interview mode

  • Japan = reference country
  • HYPERTENSION significantly lower in France, Sweden and Denmark, and

borderline significant in Switzerland.

  • CARDIO-VASCULAR DISEASES significantly higher in France (OR 4.0),

Switzerland (5.0), Sweden (1.6) and Denmark (1.5)

  • FALL within the last 6 months significantly higher in all countries but

small effect sizes (OR: 1.8-2.4).

  • MULTIMORBIDITY (2+ diseases), DIABETES no variation across countries.

Conclusion

  • Variation in morbidity and symptoms between the

5 countries

  • Some of the variations are likely caused by

differences in methodology

  • However, the 5-COOP study is the first cross-

national study on centenarians using an ex-ante harmonized survey questionnaire

  • Further studies emphasizing harmonization of

methodology are needed
