Predicting mortality with biomarkers: a population-based prospective cohort study for elderly Costa Ricans.

Population health metrics

Rosero-Bixby L, Dow WH.
PMID: 22694922
Popul Health Metr. 2012 Jun 13;10(1):11. doi: 10.1186/1478-7954-10-11.

BACKGROUND: Little is known about adult health and mortality relationships outside high-income nations, partly because few datasets have contained biomarker data in representative populations. Our objective is to determine the prognostic value of biomarkers with respect to total and...

High life expectancy and reversed socioeconomic gradients of elderly people in Mexico and Costa Rica.

Demographic research

PMID: 29576742
Demogr Res. 2018;38(3):95-108. doi: 10.4054/DemRes.2018.38.3. Epub 2018 Jan 05.

BACKGROUND: Some existing estimates suggest, controversially, that life expectancy at age 60 (LE60) of Latin American males is exceptionally high. Knowledge of adult mortality in Latin America is often based on unreliable statistics or indirect demographic methods.OBJECTIVES: This study...

Brenes-Camacho G, Rosero-Bixby L.
PMID: 18447930
BMC Int Health Hum Rights. 2008 May 14;8:5. doi: 10.1186/1472-698X-8-5.

BACKGROUND: Costa Rica, like other developing countries, is experiencing an increasing burden of chronic conditions such as diabetes mellitus (DM), especially among its elderly population. This article has two goals: (1) to assess the level of metabolic control among...

Performance-based measures of physical function as mortality predictors: Incremental value beyond self-reports.

Demographic research

Goldman N, Glei DA, Rosero-Bixby L, Chiou ST, Weinstein M.
PMID: 25866473
Demogr Res. 2014 Jan 23;30(7):227-252. doi: 10.4054/DemRes.2013.30.7.

BACKGROUND: Although previous studies have indicated that performance assessments strongly predict future survival, few have evaluated the incremental value in the presence of controls for self-reported activity and mobility limitations.OBJECTIVE: We assess and compare the added value of four...

The Nicoya region of Costa Rica: a high longevity island for elderly males.

Vienna yearbook of population research

Rosero-Bixby L, Dow WH, Rehkopf DH.
PMID: 25426140
Vienna Yearb Popul Res. 2013;11:109-136. doi: 10.1553/populationyearbook2013s109.

Reliable data show that the Nicoyan region of Costa Rica is a hot spot of high longevity. A survival follow-up of 16,300 elderly Costa Ricans estimated a Nicoya death rate ratio (DRR) for males 1990-2011 of 0.80 (0.69-0.93 CI)....
