Private healthcare is always a talking point for the study’s focus groups, but it apparently loomed extra large in 2023. It was not included in the retirement budgets this time – but for how much longer? Funding the NHS feels like another slow-moving car crash that we’re not grappling...
200 UK consumers. Survey respondents were at least 25 years old, were not yet retired and had been contributing towards their personal pension for more than five years. People identifying as female comprised 58% of respondents, while those identifying as male represented the remaining...
Participants with low SES were more likely to be female, non-white, and older. Low SES also tends to be associated with poorer lifestyle and a higher rate of chronic comorbidities (Additional file 1: Table S18). Laboratory tests showed that 10,434 (23.2% weighted) participants had at ...
The metabolomic profile of aging is complex. Here, we analyse 325 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) biomarkers from 250,341 UK Biobank participants, identifying 54 representative aging-related biomarkers associated with all-cause mortality. We conduct gen
We identified differential plasma protein levels that were associated with the onset of 23 diseases (including leading causes of disability and reductions in healthy life expectancy)23,24,25and all-cause mortality (Table1). The maximal follow-up period was 15 years across the 24 outcomes. ...
An uncertain future is not a bad one, and disruption will create opportunities as well as threats. Even so, asset managers should clearly understand that incremental change is unlikely to be a sufficient response to the challenges they face in 2023 and beyond. Confronted with unp...
Extending working lives (EWLs) has been a key policy response to the challenges presented by an ageing population in the United Kingdom (UK). This includes
such as life expectancy in the UK, despite continuing overall improvements, significant inequalities remain (Marmot et al.2010; Barr et al.2012). In order to develop more effective interventions, we need a better understanding of how, and when, these health differences are generated and maintained...
At exit, discounted lifetime outcomes are calculated. Others face risks of non-fatal falls. Logistic regressions are used to estimate the risks of: (1) any fall; (2) recurrent falls given any fall; (3a) fall requiring medical attention (MA fall) given single fall; and (3b) MA fall(s...
