Host Rebel Wilson shows off her amazing 5 stone weight loss since last awards in 2020 'This hypothesis is supported by previous studies, which have suggested that retinal imaging contains information about cardiovascular risk factors, chronic kidney diseases, and systemic biomarkers.' 'The retina offers a unique, accessible "window" to evaluate underlying pathological processes of systemic vascular and neurological diseases that are associated with increased risks of mortality. Researchers also applied a similar study using images of retinas taken from the left-eye, producing similar results.ĭr Lisa Zhuoting Zhu, one of the authors, said: 'These findings suggest that retinal age may be a clinically significant biomarker of ageing. Large retinal age aps were associated with between a 49-67 per cent higher risk of death from causes other than heart disease or cancer. The majority were killed by cancer, dementia or heart disease. They then paired this up with health data from the participants, over an average of 11 years, allowing them to link causes of death with their retinal age gap.ĭuring this time, 1,800 (5 per cent) of the participants died.
Some had retinas a decade older, according to the research published in the British Journal of Ophthalmology. More than half had retinas thought to be at least three years older than their actual biological age. The team then assessed the retinal age gap of 36,000 participants plucked from the UK Biobank. The programme's estimates were found to be accurate, coming within three-and-a-half years of someone's actual age, on average. Academics at Melbourne's Centre for Eye Research taught an artificial intelligence algorithm to predict retinal age by giving it almost 19,000 fundus scans.
