Data set of over 1500 one- and two-minute EEG recordings, obtained from 109 volunteers. Subjects performed different motor/imagery tasks while 64-channel EEG were recorded using the BCI2000 system (http://www.bci2000.org). Each subject performed 14 experimental runs: two one-minute baseline runs (one with eyes open, one with eyes closed), and three two-minute runs of each of the four following tasks: # A target appears on either the left or the right side of the screen. The subject opens and closes the corresponding fist until the target disappears. Then the subject relaxes. # A target appears on either the left or the right side of the screen. The subject imagines opening and closing the corresponding fist until the target disappears. Then the subject relaxes. # A target appears on either the top or the bottom of the screen. The subject opens and closes either both fists (if the target is on top) or both feet (if the target is on the bottom) until the target disappears. Then the subject relaxes. # A target appears on either the top or the bottom of the screen. The subject imagines opening and closing either both fists (if the target is on top) or both feet (if the target is on the bottom) until the target disappears. Then the subject relaxes. The data are provided here in EDF+ format (containing 64 EEG signals, each sampled at 160 samples per second, and an annotation channel).

Data sets of information regarding the health and well-being of older persons in Taiwan (from 2000 and 2006), in particular the relationship between life challenges and mental and physical health, the impact of social environment on the health and well-being of the elderly, and biological markers of health and stress. The study collected self-reports of physical, psychological, and social well-being, plus extensive clinical data based on medical examinations and laboratory analyses. Examination of health outcomes included chronic illnesses, functional status, psychological well-being, and cognitive function. Questions regarding life challenges focused on perceived stress, economic difficulties, security and safety, and the consequences of a major earthquake. Biological markers were used to identify cardiovascular risk factors, metabolic process measures, immune-system activity, the hypothalamic-pituitary adrenal axis, and sympathetic nervous system activity. The study design consists of face-to-face interviews with participants drawn from a random sub-sample of participants from 27 PSUs from the 1999 Survey of Health and Living Status of the Middle Aged and Elderly in Taiwan. Hospital visits and blood and urine specimens also were collected. A second wave of SEBAS was conducted in 2006 using a similar protocol to SEBAS 2000, but with the addition of performance assessments conducted by the interviewers at the end of the home interview. * Dates of Study: -2000, 2006 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International, Anthropometric Measures * Sample Size: 27 PSUs

http://www.lifetable.de/

A collection of population life tables covering a multitude of countries and many years. Most of the HLD life tables are life tables for national populations, which have been officially published by national statistical offices. Some of the HLD life tables refer to certain regional or ethnic sub-populations within countries. Parts of the HLD life tables are non-official life tables produced by researchers. Life tables describe the extent to which a generation of people (i.e. life table cohort) dies off with age. Life tables are the most ancient and important tool in demography. They are widely used for descriptive and analytical purposes in demography, public health, epidemiology, population geography, biology and many other branches of science. HLD includes the following types of data: * complete life tables in text format; * abridged life tables in text format; * references to statistical publications and other data sources; * scanned copies of the original life tables as they were published. Three scientific institutions are jointly developing the HLD: the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (MPIDR) in Rostock, Germany, the Department of Demography at the University of California at Berkeley, USA and the Institut national d''��tudes d��mographiques (INED) in Paris, France. The MPIDR is responsible for maintaining the database.

http://www.census.gov/did/www/nlms/

A database based on a random sample of the noninstitutionalized population of the United States, developed for the purpose of studying the effects of demographic and socio-economic characteristics on differentials in mortality rates. It consists of data from 26 U.S. Current Population Surveys (CPS) cohorts, annual Social and Economic Supplements, and the 1980 Census cohort, combined with death certificate information to identify mortality status and cause of death covering the time interval, 1979 to 1998. The Current Population Surveys are March Supplements selected from the time period from March 1973 to March 1998. The NLMS routinely links geographical and demographic information from Census Bureau surveys and censuses to the NLMS database, and other available sources upon request. The Census Bureau and CMS have approved the linkage protocol and data acquisition is currently underway. The plan for the NLMS is to link information on mortality to the NLMS every two years from 1998 through 2006 with research on the resulting database to continue, at least, through 2009. The NLMS will continue to incorporate data from the yearly Annual Social and Economic Supplement into the study as the data become available. Based on the expected size of the Annual Social and Economic Supplements to be conducted, the expected number of deaths to be added to the NLMS through the updating process will increase the mortality content of the study to nearly 500,000 cases out of a total number of approximately 3.3 million records. This effort would also include expanding the NLMS population base by incorporating new March Supplement Current Population Survey data into the study as they become available. Linkages to the SEER and CMS datasets are also available. Data Availability: Due to the confidential nature of the data used in the NLMS, the public use dataset consists of a reduced number of CPS cohorts with a fixed follow-up period of five years. NIA does not make the data available directly. Research access to the entire NLMS database can be obtained through the NIA program contact listed. Interested investigators should email the NIA contact and send in a one page prospectus of the proposed project. NIA will approve projects based on their relevance to NIA/BSR''s areas of emphasis. Approved projects are then assigned to NLMS statisticians at the Census Bureau who work directly with the researcher to interface with the database. A modified version of the public use data files is available also through the Census restricted Data Centers. However, since the database is quite complex, many investigators have found that the most efficient way to access it is through the Census programmers. * Dates of Study: 1973-2009 * Study Features: Longitudinal * Sample Size: ~3.3 Million Link: *ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/00134

Interactive data set on lead exposure (Blood Lead Concentrations greater than or equal to 25 micrograms per deciliter) of adults in the United States. The data comes from laboratory-reported elevated blood lead levels. Recent research has led to increased concerns about the toxicity of lead at low doses. Reflecting this increased concern, the ABLES program updated its case definition for an elevated BLL to a blood lead concentration greater than or equal to 10 micrograms per deciliter in 2009. This new case definition has also been: (1) recommended by the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists in 2009; (2) included in CDC''s list of nationally notifiable conditions in 2010; and (3) adopted as the Healthy People 2020 Occupational Safety and Health Objective 7. Given this new case definition, NIOSH will update the ABLES Charts and Interactive Database to include lead exposures to blood lead level greater than or equal to 10 micrograms per deciliter in the near future.

A dataset of a survey of intergenerational relations among 2,044 adult members of some 300 three- (and later four-) generation California families: grandparents (then in their sixties), middle-aged parents (then in their early forties), grandchildren (then aged 16 to 26), and later the great-grandchildren as they turn age 16, and further surveys in 1985, 1988, 1991, 1994, 1997 and 2001. This first fully-elaborated generation-sequential design makes it possible to compare sets of parents and adult-children at the same age across different historical periods and addresses the following objectives: # To track life-course trajectories of family intergenerational solidarity and conflict over three decades of adulthood, and across successive generations of family members; # To identify how intergenerational solidarity, and conflict influence the well-being of family members throughout the adult life course and across successive generations; # To chart the effects of socio-historical change on families, intergenerational relationships, and individual life-course development during the past three decades; # To examine women''s roles and relationships in multigenerational families over 30 years of rapid change in the social trajectories of women''s lives. These data can extend understanding of the complex interplay among macro-social change, family functioning, and individual well-being over the adult life-course and across successive generations. Data Availability: Data from 1971-1997 are available through ICPSR as Study number 4076. * Dates of Study: 1971-2001 * Study Features: Longitudinal * Sample Size: ** 345 Three-generational families ** 2,044 Adults (1971 baseline) Link: * ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/04076

A follow-up of the 1976-1977 MFLS-1 dataset covering the respondents'' and spouses'' marriage, fertility, employment, education and migration histories as well as extensive information on the household economy. The MFLS-2 contains a supplementary sample of persons age 50 or older. The data permit analysis of intergenerational transfers to the elderly and their covariates; the living arrangements of the elderly; the health of the elderly; labor supply, occupation and retirement status of the elderly; and their migration patterns. This supplement fills the gap left by many standard sources of demographic and economic information about Third World populations, such as fertility surveys and labor force surveys, which effectively exclude the elderly. Field work for MFLS-2 began in Aug. 1988 and was completed in Jan. 1989. The survey was fielded in four samples: * The Panel Sample Women who were the primary respondents to the MFLS-1, who at that time (1976) were ever-married women aged 50 or younger. There are 926 panel households in MFLS-2, a follow-up rate of 72%. * The Children Sample Children aged 18 or older in 1988 of the women interviewed as primary respondents for MFLS-1; i.e. adult children of the women eligible for the MFLS-2 Panel sample. There were interviews with one child, selected at random, inside the Panel household and two children, selected at random, living elsewhere in Peninsular Malaysia. There are 1,136 respondents in the Children sample. * The New Sample A sample of households with a woman aged 18-49 (regardless of her marital status) or an ever-married woman under age 18. There are 2,184 respondents in MFLS-2 New Sample. * The Senior Sample Selected households with a person age 50 or over. There are 1,357 respondents in the Senior Sample. Data Availability: The MFLS-2 (and MFLS-1) data files and documentation are available on-line or from NACDA at ICPSR as Study No. 9805. * Dates of Study: 1988-1989 * Study Features: International * Sample Size: Seniors (aged 50+): 1,357 Link: * ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/09805

http://www.uniprot.org/program/Chordata

Data set of manually annotated chordata-specific proteins as well as those that are widely conserved. The program keeps existing human entries up-to-date and broadens the manual annotation to other vertebrate species, especially model organisms, including great apes, cow, mouse, rat, chicken, zebrafish, as well as Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. A draft of the complete human proteome is available in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot and one of the current priorities of the Chordata protein annotation program is to improve the quality of human sequences provided. To this aim, they are updating sequences which show discrepancies with those predicted from the genome sequence. Dubious isoforms, sequences based on experimental artifacts and protein products derived from erroneous gene model predictions are also revisited. This work is in part done in collaboration with the Hinxton Sequence Forum (HSF), which allows active exchange between UniProt, HAVANA, Ensembl and HGNC groups, as well as with RefSeq database. UniProt is a member of the Consensus CDS project and thye are in the process of reviewing their records to support convergence towards a standard set of protein annotation. They also continuously update human entries with functional annotation, including novel structural, post-translational modification, interaction and enzymatic activity data. In order to identify candidates for re-annotation, they use, among others, information extraction tools such as the STRING database. In addition, they regularly add new sequence variants and maintain disease information. Indeed, this annotation program includes the Variation Annotation Program, the goal of which is to annotate all known human genetic diseases and disease-linked protein variants, as well as neutral polymorphisms.

A dataset that permits examination of health, economic, work, and retirement trajectories for a representative national sample of men from middle to old age. The original sample of 5,020 men, first interviewed in 1966, was re-interviewed periodically until 1983 under a contract with the US Department of Labor. The study provided a detailed longitudinal record of their labor market activity, health, financial status, family structure, and attitudes toward and experience in retirement. The NIA grant made possible a re-interview in 1990 with the surviving men and the widows (or other next-of-kin) of the decedents. The merging of the 1990 data includes death certificate information for the decedents, Blacks were over-represented in the original sample in a ratio of about three or four to one, resulting in about 500 surviving black men in the sample. Information on labor market activity, income, and assets also is available for a sample of about 1,350 widows, 90 percent of whom are between 60 and 89 years of age. This information can be linked to earlier data on the women''s health and work activity that was reported by their late husbands. Due to the original sample selection, other NLS cohorts contain wives and daughters of the older men. These other surveys also hold a wealth of detailed information on aging and retirement issues, especially on income transfers. * Dates of Study: 1966-1990 * Study Features: Longitudinal, Minority Oversamples * Sample Size: ** 1966: 5,020 men (baseline) ** 1990: 2,092 surviving men, 1,341 widows, 865 other next-of-kin Links: * BLS Website on NLS: http://www.bls.gov/nls/ * ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/04675
