A dataset to advance the study of life-cycle interactions of biomedical and socioeconomic factors in the aging process. The EI project has assembled a variety of large datasets covering the life histories of approximately 39,616 white male volunteers (drawn from a random sample of 331 companies) who served in the Union Army (UA), and of about 6,000 African-American veterans from 51 randomly selected United States Colored Troops companies (USCT). Their military records were linked to pension and medical records that detailed the soldiers������?? health status and socioeconomic and family characteristics. Each soldier was searched for in the US decennial census for the years in which they were most likely to be found alive (1850, 1860, 1880, 1900, 1910). In addition, a sample consisting of 70,000 men examined for service in the Union Army between September 1864 and April 1865 has been assembled and linked only to census records. These records will be useful for life-cycle comparisons of those accepted and rejected for service. Military Data: The military service and wartime medical histories of the UA and USCT men were collected from the Union Army and United States Colored Troops military service records, carded medical records, and other wartime documents. Pension Data: Wherever possible, the UA and USCT samples have been linked to pension records, including surgeon''''s certificates. About 70% of men in the Union Army sample have a pension. These records provide the bulk of the socioeconomic and demographic information on these men from the late 1800s through the early 1900s, including family structure and employment information. In addition, the surgeon''''s certificates provide rich medical histories, with an average of 5 examinations per linked recruit for the UA, and about 2.5 exams per USCT recruit. Census Data: Both early and late-age familial and socioeconomic information is collected from the manuscript schedules of the federal censuses of 1850, 1860, 1870 (incomplete), 1880, 1900, and 1910. Data Availability: All of the datasets (Military Union Army; linked Census; Surgeon''''s Certificates; Examination Records, and supporting ecological and environmental variables) are publicly available from ICPSR. In addition, copies on CD-ROM may be obtained from the CPE, which also maintains an interactive Internet Data Archive and Documentation Library, which can be accessed on the Project Website. * Dates of Study: 1850-1910 * Study Features: Longitudinal, Minority Oversamples * Sample Size: ** Union Army: 35,747 ** Colored Troops: 6,187 ** Examination Sample: 70,800 ICPSR Link: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06836

An MRI data set that demonstrates the utility of a mega-analytic approach by identifying the effects of age and gender on the resting-state networks (RSNs) of 603 healthy adolescents and adults (mean age: 23.4 years, range: 12-71 years). Data were collected on the same scanner, preprocessed using an automated analysis pipeline based in SPM, and studied using group independent component analysis. RSNs were identified and evaluated in terms of three primary outcome measures: time course spectral power, spatial map intensity, and functional network connectivity. Results revealed robust effects of age on all three outcome measures, largely indicating decreases in network coherence and connectivity with increasing age. Gender effects were of smaller magnitude but suggested stronger intra-network connectivity in females and more inter-network connectivity in males, particularly with regard to sensorimotor networks. These findings, along with the analysis approach and statistical framework described, provide a useful baseline for future investigations of brain networks in health and disease.

A dataset that provides researchers and policy makers information about issues affecting the elderly population in Puerto Rico: health status, housing arrangements, functional status, transfers, labor history, migration, income, childhood characteristics, health insurance, use of health services, marital history, mistreat, sexuality, etc. It investigates the characteristics of older adults (aged 60+) through an island-wide cross-sectional sample survey of target individuals and their surviving spouses. The sampling frame was constructed on the basis of an advance release of the 2000 US Census. The population for the study consists of the elderly population (60+) in households in Puerto Rico. The sample design used a multistage probabilistic sample by cluster. All elderly adults who lived in the selected households were eligible. If more than one person was in the target population, one 60+ adult was the target and one was the spouse. Respondents 80+ and males in couples who were both 80+ were oversampled. There were 4,293 targets aged 60+ and 1,444 spouses (all ages) in the first wave. Types of data include demographic; household composition; marital history; Cantrill Scale; mini-mental (designed to measure cognitive capacity of Spanish-speaking Latinos with low levels of education and to provide early indications of dementia); self-reported health status; diagnosed health conditions; childhood conditions; transfers; labor history; migration; housing; assets; Activities of Daily Living; Instrumental Activities of Daily Living; medicines; health insurance and use of health services; family structure; sexuality; anthropometric measures. Project innovations include: (1) the design and test of a new tool for assessing cognition among Spanish speaking elderly of low levels of education, (2) a symptoms section to assess the validity of selected self reported conditions, (3) a modification of the Cantrill''s Ladder Scale, (4) protocols for physical measurements to assess current, as well as past, conditions, and (5) the use of GIS and GPS in the fieldwork supervision and to geocoding the survey data. At this moment PREHCO has completed a second wave to become a longitudinal study. The questionnaire included questions regarding the changing conditions (health, residential, social and economic) of those individuals who responded the first questionnaire. The new questionnaire included novel components: vignettes for health status self-report, a new improved section on disability and dependency, and on labor force participation. We also expanded the section of anthropometry by adding a few measurements and physical efficiency tests. Those participants deceased or institutionalized were interviewed using a proxy. Data Availability: First and second wave data are available for public use through BADGIR, the online data archive at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, at: http://nesstar.ssc.wisc.edu/ * Dates of Study: 2002-2003, 2004-2006 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International, Minority Oversampling, Anthropometric measures * Sample Size: 5,336

The data sets included in this resource are published in Kravitz et al, 2012 Distinct roles for direct and indirect pathway striatal neurons in reinforcement (Nat. Neurosci). The data shows: optogenetic activation of dopamine D1 or D2 receptor-expressing striatal projection neurons influenced reinforcement learning in mice. Stimulating D1 receptor-expressing neurons induced persistent reinforcement, whereas stimulating D2 receptor-expressing neurons induced transient punishment. These 3 recording files contain data collected in 2010 and 2011 by Lex Kravitz in Anatol Kreitzer''s lab at the Gladstone Institutes. Each file contains ~ 1 hour of awake in vivo recording data, containing the spike times for ~30 minutes of spontaneous activity, preceeded or followed by 400 laser pulses (473nm laser light, 1 sec pulses, 3 seconds inter-pulse-interval). The laser pulses were presented at 4 intensities: 0.1mW, 0.3mW, 1.0mW, and 3.0mW, and pulse times at each intensity are given in separate columns in each data file. Finally, each data file contains the identification of ''light-modulated units'' as we identified them (see methods below). Methods: Viral expression of DIO-ChR2-YFP and DIO-YFP We used double-floxed inverted (DIO) constructs to express ChR2-YFP fusions and YFP alone in Cre-expressing neurons, which virtually eliminates recombination in cells that do not express Cre-recombinase (Sohal et al, Nature, 2009). The double-floxed reverse ChR2-YFP or YFP cassette was cloned into a modified version of the pAAV2-MCS vector (Stratagene, La Jolla, CA) carrying the EF-1a promoter and the Woodchuck hepatitis virus posttranscriptional regulatory element (WPRE) to enhance expression. The recombinant AAV vectors were serotyped with AAV1 coat proteins and packaged by the viral vector core at the University of North Carolina. The final viral concentration was 4 x 10^12 virus molecules/mL (by Dot Blot, UNC vector core). This viral construct can now be ordered in single aliquots directly from UNC Vector core as product AAV-EF1a-DIO-hChR2(H134R)-EYFP, at http://genetherapy.unc.edu/services.htm) Implantation of electrode arrays for awake recordings Anaesthesia was induced with a mixture of ketamine and xylazine (100mg ketamine plus 5mg xylazine per kilogram of body weight i.p.) and maintained with isoflurane through a nose cone mounted on a stereotaxic apparatus (Kopf Instruments). The scalp was opened and a hole was drilled in the skull (0.0 to +1.0mm AP, -1.0 to -2.0mm ML from bregma). Two skull screws were implanted in the opposing hemisphere. Dental adhesive (C&B Metabond, Parkell) was used to fix the skull screws in place and coat the surface of the skull. An array of 16 or 32 microwires (35-��m tungsten wires, 100-��m spacing between wires, 200-��m spacing between rows; Innovative Physiology) and one optical fiber in a ferrule was lowered into the striatum (3.0mm below the surface of the brain) and cemented in place with dental acrylic (Ortho-Jet, Lang Dental). After the cement dried, the scalp was sutured shut. Animals were allowed to recover for at least seven days before striatal recordings were made. In vivo electrophysiology Voltage signals from each recording site on the microwire array were band-pass-filtered, such that activity between 150 and 8,000Hz was analysed as spiking activity. This data was amplified, processed and digitally captured using commercial hardware and software (Plexon). Single units were discriminated with principal component analysis (OFFLINE SORTER, Plexon). Two criteria were used to ensure quality of recorded units: (1) recorded units smaller than 100��V (~3 times the noise band) were excluded from further analysis and (2) recorded units in which more than 1% of interspike intervals were shorter than 2ms were excluded from further analysis. Average waveforms were exported with OFFLINE SORTER. During the recording we coupled the array to a laser and pulsed the laser at four intensities (0.1mW, 0.3mW, 1mW, and 3mW). Laser stimulation was run in a cyclical fashion, on for 1 second, and off for 3 seconds. Each neuron received 100 pulses at each laser intensity. Identification of ChR2 expressing units in in vivo recordings For all neurons, peri-event histograms were generated for each laser intensity independently. Neurons were classified as ChR2-expressing if they exhibited a firing rate greater than 3x above the standard deviation of the 1-second preceding the laser pulse within 10msec of the laser onset. Each neuron was tested independently at each laser power, and neurons that satisfied this criteria at any one power were defined as ChR2-expression.

Data tables providing an overview of information about stem cells that have been derived from mice and humans. The tables summarize published research that characterizes cells that are capable of developing into cells of multiple germ layers (i.e., multipotent or pluripotent) or that can generate the differentiated cell types of another tissue (i.e., plasticity) such as a bone marrow cell becoming a neuronal cell. The tables do not include information about cells considered progenitor or precursor cells or those that can proliferate without the demonstrated ability to generate cell types of other tissues. The tables list the tissue from which the cells were derived, the types of cells that developed, the conditions under which differentiation occurred, the methods by which the cells were characterized, and the primary references for the information.

A data set designed to provide a cross-sectional description of health, mental, and social status of the oldest-old segment of the elderly population in Israel, and to serve as a baseline for a multiple-stage research program to correlate demographic, health, and functional status with subsequent mortality, selected morbidity, and institutionalization. Study data are based on a sample of Jewish subjects aged 75+, alive and living in Israel on January 1, 1989, randomly selected from the National Population Register (NPR), a complete listing of the Israeli population maintained by the Ministry of the Interior. The NPR is updated on a routine basis with births, deaths, and in and out migration, and corrected by linkage with census data. The sample was stratified by age (five 5-year age groups: 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, 90-94, 95+), sex, and place of birth (Israel, Asia-Africa, Europe-America). One hundred subjects were randomly selected in each of the 30 strata. However, there were less than 100 individuals of each sex aged 95+ born in Israel, so all were selected for the sample. The total group included 2,891 individuals living both in the community and in institutions. A total of 1,820 (76%) of the 75-94 age group were interviewed during 1989-1992. An additional cognitive exam (Folstein) and a 24-hour dietary recall interview were added in the second round. Kibbutz Residents Sample The kibbutz is a social and economic unit based on equality among members, common property and work, collaborative consumption, and democracy in decision making. There are 250 kibbutzim in Israel, and their population constitutes about 3% of the country''s total population. All kibbutz residents in the country aged 85+, both members and parents, were selected for interviewing, of whom 80.4% (n=652) were interviewed. A matched sample aged 75-84 was selected, and 85.9% (n=674) were successfully interviewed. The original interview took approximately two hours to administer, and collected extensive information concerning the socio-demographic, physical, health, functioning, life events (including Holocaust), depression, mental status, and social network characteristics of the sample. The questionnaire used for kibbutz residents in the follow-up interview is identical to that utilized in the national random sample. Data Availability: Mortality data for both the national and kibbutz samples are available for analysis as a result of the linkage to the NPR file updated as of June 2000. The fieldwork for first follow up was completed as of September 1994 and for the second follow up as of December 2002. The data file of the three phases of the study is ready for analysis. * Dates of Study: 1989-1992 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International * Sample Size: 2,891

A dataset of a longitudinal study of over 3,000 Mexican-Americans aged 65 or over living in five southwestern states. The objective is to describe the physical and mental health of the study group and link them to key social variables (e.g., social support, health behavior, acculturation, migration). To the extent possible, the study was modeled after the existing EPESE studies, especially the Duke EPESE, which included a large sample if African-Americans. Unlike the other EPESE studies that were restricted to small geographic areas, the Hispanic EPESE aimed at obtaining a representative sample of community-dwelling Mexican-American elderly residing in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, and California. Approximately 85% of Mexican-American elderly reside in these states and data were obtained that are generalizable to roughly 500,000 older people. The final sample of 3,050 subjects at baseline is comparable to those of the other EPESE studies. Data Availability: Waves I to IV are available through the National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging (NACDA), ICPSR. Also available through NACDA is the ����??Resource Book of the Hispanic Established Populations for the Epidemiologic Studies of the Elderly����?? which offers a thorough review of the data and its applications. All subjects aged 75 or older were interviewed for Wave V and 902 new subjects were added. Hemoglobin A1c test kits were provided to subjects who self-reported diabetes. Approximately 270 of the kits were returned for analyses. Wave V data are being validated and reviewed. A tentative timeline for the archiving of Wave V data is November 2006. Wave VI interviewing and data collection is scheduled to begin in Fall 2006. * Dates of Study: 1993-2006 * Study Features: Longitudinal, Minority oversamples, Anthropometric Measures * Sample Size: ** 1993-4: 3,050 (Wave I) ** 1995-6: 2,438 (Wave II) ** 1998-9: 1,980 (Wave III) ** 2000-1: 1,682 (Wave IV) ** 2004-5: 2,073 (Wave V) ** 2006-7: (Wave VI) Links: * ICPSR Wave 1: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/2851 * ICPSR Wave 2: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/3385 * ICPSR Wave 3: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/4102 * ICPSR Wave 4: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/4314 * ICPSR Wave 5: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/25041 * ICPSR Wave 6: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/29654

A dataset, 1970-2009, containing equivalently defined variables for the British Household Panel Study (BHPS), the Household Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA), the Korea Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) (new this year), the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID), the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS-HSE) (new this year), the Swiss Household Panel (SHP), the Canadian Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID), and the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP). The data are designed to allow cross-national researchers not experienced in panel data analysis to access a simplified version of these panels, while providing experienced panel data users with guidelines for formulating equivalent variables across countries. The CNEF permit researchers to track yearly changes in the health and economic well-being of older people relative to younger people in the study countries. The equivalent file provides a set of constructed variables (for example pre- and post-government income and United States and international household equivalence weights) that are not directly available on the original surveys. Since the Cross-National Equivalent File 1970-2009 can be merged with the original surveys, PSID-CNEF users can easily incorporate these constructed variables into current analyses. The most recent release of the Equivalent File includes: * BHPS data from 1991 to 2005 on over 21,000 individuals and approximately 6,000 households. * GSOEP data from 1984 to 2007 on over 20,000 individuals and approximately 6,000 households in Germany. * HILDA data from 2001 to 2006 on over 19,000 individuals and 7,000 households. * PSID data from 1980 to 2005 on over 33,000 individuals and approximately 7,000 households. * SHP data from 1999 to 2006 on 12,900 individuals and 5,000 households. * SLID data from 1993 to 2006 on over 95,000 individuals and approximately 32,000 households. With one exception, the CNEF country data are available on CD-ROM from Cornell University for a fee. The Canadian SLID data are not distributed on the CD but are available to CNEF registered researchers through special arrangements with Statistics Canada. Complete instructions for obtaining CNEF data may be accessed on the project website. * Dates of Study: 1980-2007 * Study Features: International, Longitudinal * Sample Size: ** BHPS: 21,000+ ** PSID: 33,000+ ** SLID: 95,000+ ** GSOEP: 20,000+ ** HILDA: 19,000+ ** SHP: 12,900+ NACDA link: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/NACDA/studies/00145/detail

Dataset from an investigation of biochemical evidence of myocardial strain, oxidative stress, and cardiomyocyte injury in 55 acute KD subjects (30 with paired convalescent samples), 54 febrile control (FC), and 50 healthy control (HC) children by measuring concentrations of cardiovascular biomarkers. NT-proBNP and sST2 were elevated in acute KD subjects and correlated with impaired myocardial relaxation. These findings, combined with elevated levels of cTnI, suggest that both cardiomyocyte stress and cell death are associated with myocardial inflammation in acute KD.

VIEWPixx /3D (VPixx Technologies) is a 1920x1080 resolution, 120 Hz, calibrated research-grade LCD monitor. It is designed for stereoscopic (3D) stimulus presentation and other high-dynamic vision-science paradigms where deterministic timing and synchronized I/O are critical. It pairs fast-response industrial TN LCD glass with a custom VPixx panel/video controller and a scanning direct-RGB LED backlight engineered to reduce motion artifacts/ghosting/crosstalk, and to improve spatial uniformity, while bypassing consumer “enhancement” processing for predictable experimental output. For stereoscopic workflows, VIEWPixx /3D supports 120 Hz frame-sequential 3D (60 Hz/eye) when used with 3DPixx active shutter glasses (RF emitter + glasses kit), and it can provide a dual-link DVI console output to mirror the participant's view without adding GPU load. The system is also a synchronized display + acquisition toolbox: integrated button-box interface, 24-channel TTL triggers, stereo audio I/O, and a full analog I/O subsystem are implemented on the same board as video control to enable microsecond-precision synchronization to video refresh—useful for EEG triggers, reaction-time tasks, and other timing-sensitive paradigms.In terms of bit depth, the VIEWPixx /3D is native 8 bits per colour, with support fot 10-bit resolution per RGB channel via custom video modes.

A longitudinal study which follows the cohort of current residents and discharged residents sampled from the 1985 National Nursing Home Survey (NNHS), thus permitting study of nursing home and hospital utilization over time. The study was conducted in three waves. To supplement the current and discharged resident components, the 1985 NNHS included a new component - the Next-of-Kin (NOK). The NOK, using a Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) system, was designed to collect information about current and former nursing home residents that is not generally available from patient records or other sources in the nursing home. The NNHSF obtains additional information on a portion of the residents for whom a Current Resident Questionnaire (CRQ) or a Discharged Resident Questionnaire (DRQ) was completed. In September 1994, the NNHSF Mortality Public Use Data Tape was released, covering the years 1984-1990. It contains the multiple cause-of-death information for 6,507 subjects from the NNHSF found to be deceased after linking and matching of files with the National Death Index. Information on the mortality tape includes the date of death, region of occurrence and residence, etc. All NNHSF tapes include a patient identification number common across files to allow linkage among them. Data Availability: Public Use data tapes for each wave and the mortality tape are available through the National Technical Information Office (NTIS), NACDA and the ICPSCR at the University of Michigan. The 1985 survey tape includes eight files: the facility questionnaire, nursing staff questionnaire, current resident questionnaire, discharged resident questionnaire, expense questionnaire, nursing staff sampling list, current resident sampling list, discharged resident sampling list. The next-of-kin questionnaire is available on a separate tape. * Dates of Study: 1987-1990 * Study Features: Longitudinal * Sample Size: ** 1987: 6,001 (Wave I) ** 1988: 3,868 (Wave II) ** 1990: 3,041 (Wave III) Links: * Wave I (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/09813 * Wave II (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/09838 * Wave III (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06142
