Brazilians are highly admixed with ancestry from Europe, Africa, America, and Asia yet still underrepresented in genomic databanks. We hereby present a collection of exomic variants 609 elderly census-based cohort (SABE609) comprehensive phenotyping. Variants were deposited ABraOM (Online Archive Brazilian Mutations), Web-based public database. Population representative phenotype genotype repositories essential for variant interpretation through allele frequency filtering; since individuals...
Abstract As whole-genome sequencing (WGS) becomes the gold standard tool for studying population genomics and medical applications, data on diverse non-European admixed individuals are still scarce. Here, we present a high-coverage WGS dataset of 1,171 highly elderly Brazilians from census-based cohort, providing over 76 million variants, which ~2 absent large public databases. enables identification ~2,000 previously undescribed mobile element insertions without previous description, nearly...

Genetic evaluation has been recognized as an important tool to elucidate the causes of growth disorders. To investigate cause short stature and determine phenotype patients with IHH mutations, including response recombinant human hormone (rhGH) therapy. We studied 17 families autosomal-dominant by using whole exome sequencing screened defects in 290 Molecular analyses were performed evaluate potential impact N-terminal variants. identified 10 pathogenic or possibly variants IHH, regulator...
To investigate the prevalence of demand and provision care for Brazilian population with functional disabilities in activities daily living.This is a quantitative descriptive study using baseline data from ELSI-Brazil (Brazilian Longitudinal Study Aging), cohort representative sample aged 50 years or older (n = 9,412). We considered self-report having some difficulty to perform at least one activity life (eating, bathing, going toilet, dressing, moving room [ambulation], transferring chair...
The risk factors for diseases and premature deaths are important in drawing up preventive measures. This study had the aim of analyzing death among elderly people.This was carried out participants SABE (Health, Wellbeing Aging) study, city São Paulo 2000. Interviews were conducted with 2,143 people (60 years old or over), using a standardized questionnaire study. sample obtained from census tracts, two stages, replacements probability proportional to population, supplementation aged 75 over....
Although a reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in old people has been attributed to physiologic aging, it may be associated with kidney disease or superimposed comorbidities. This study aims assess the prevalence of decreased GFR geriatric population developing country and its absence simultaneous diseases.This is cross-sectional data from Saúde, Bem-Estar e Envelhecimento cohort (SABE study[Health, Well-Being Aging]), multiple cohorts study. A multistage cluster sample composed 1,253...
The changes that occur during aging are accompanied by limitations in functional performance impair elderly people's social participation and consequently harm their quality of life. In the SABE Study (São Paulo, Brazil), results indicated relationships between life expectancy without disabilities demographic variables. This article sought to evaluate these other variables together as explanatory factors for presence or absence difficulties instrumental activities daily living (IADL),...
Accurate interpretation of germline mutations the rearranged during transfection (RET) proto-oncogene is vital for proper recommendation preventive thyroidectomy in medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC)-prone carriers. To gain information regarding most disputed variant RET, ATA-A Y791F, we sequenced blood DNA samples from a cohort 2904 cancer-free elderly individuals (1261 via Sanger sequencing and 1643 whole-exome/genome sequencing). We also accessed exome sequences an additional 8069...
There is little epidemiological evidence demonstrating that dynapenic abdominal obesity has higher mortality risk than dynapenia and alone. Our main aim was to investigate whether combined with increases among English Brazilian older adults over ten-year follow-up.
Vision and hearing impairments can reduce participation in social activities. Given the prominent role of mouth face-to-face interactions, this study evaluated associations tooth loss, vision, with among older adults.This analysis included 1947 participants, aged 60+ years, who participated three waves (2006, 2010, 2015) Health, Wellbeing Aging Study (SABE) Brazil. Social was measured by number formal informal activities (requiring interaction) participants were regularly involved in. Teeth...
This study aimed to estimate coverage and identify factors associated vaccination against influenza in the elderly population.The design was cross-sectional population based. Data collected 2010 by Health, Well-Being Aging Study. Sample consisted of 1,341 community-dwelling elderly, São Paulo, Brazil. Association between covariates evaluated means prevalence ratios estimated Poisson regression models.Self-reported 74.2% (95% confidence interval: 71.3-76.9). Remaining physically active having...

HLA‐B is among the most variable gene in human genome. This encodes a key molecule for antigen presentation to CD8+ T lymphocytes and NK cell modulation. Despite myriad of studies evaluating its coding region (with an emphasis on exons 2 3), few evaluated introns regulatory sequences real population samples. Thus, variability probably underestimated. We applied bioinformatics pipeline tailored HLA genes 5347 samples from 80 different populations, which includes more than 1000 admixed...
