À la recherche des premiers super-centenaires français (1830-1929)
En France métropolitaine, aucune personne n’a officiellement atteint l’âge de 110 ans avant le dernier quart du XX e siècle. C’est surprenant car ce ne fut pas le cas pour la Grande-Bretagne, l’Allemagne, les Pays-Bas et les États-Unis. L’objet de cet article est de stimuler la recherche d’authentiques supercentenaires méconnus décédés entre 1830 et 1929. Un moyen de tester cette hypothèse est de parcourir la presse ancienne qui faisait largement…
Anthropometric traits at military medical examinations associated with demographic family characteristics in Sardinia at the turn of twentieth century
Anthropometric traits observed during military medical examinations are excellent indicators of individual health and nutritional status, and more generally reflect historical socio-economic conditions. Historical demographers have shown little interest in the association of anthropometric traits with demographic family characteristics, except with sibship size according to the resource dilution hypothesis (RDH). In this study we present an analy…
Why were Sardinians the shortest Europeans? A journey through genes, infections, nutrition, and sex
Since ancient times the Mediterranean island of Sardinia has been known for harboring a population with an average body height shorter than almost every other ethnic group in Europe. After over a century of investigations, the cause(s) at the origin of this uniqueness are not yet clear. The shorter stature of Sardinians appears to have been documented since prehistoric times, as revealed by the analysis of skeletal remains discovered in archaeolo…
Fertility History, Children’s Gender, and Post-Reproductive Survival in a Longevous Population
The question of whether mothers' fertility history influences their post-reproductive survival has been addressed frequently in the scientific literature. Using data from Villagrande Strisaili, Sardinia, where longevity is higher than anywhere else in Europe, we analyzed the relationship between the fertility pattern of mothers who survived past age 50 (n = 539) and their post-reproductive lifespan. We find that, after adjustment for potential co…
Survival Among Belgian Centenarians (1870-1894 Cohorts)
Poulain Michel, Chambre Dany, Foulon Michel.- Survival Among Belgian Centenarians (1870-1894 Cohorts) ; Calculating the probability of dying among post-centenarians is problematic and often flawed by a high risk of error. This is partly due to the unreliability of statistical data on centenarians, and partly to the small populations concerned. The Belgian centenarian database of over 4,000 centenarians in the 1870 ; to 1894 birth cohorts used her…
La survie des centenaires belges (générations 1870-1894)
Poi lain Michel, Chambre Dany, Foi lon Michel - La survie des centenaires belges (générations 1870-1894) Le calcul des quotients de mortalité au delà de 100 ans est malaisé et débouche bien souvent sur des estimations largement aléatoires Ceci est dû aussi bien a la moindre habilité des données statistiques relatives aux centenaires qu'a la petitesse des effectifs concernes La base de données sur les centenaires belges que nous utilisons ici tent…
L'héritabilité de la longévité
Since the 18th century at least, centenarians have fascinated thier contemporaries. But it was only in the 19th century that studies testing the hypothesis of the hereditary nature of longevity appeared. Do centenarians have parents and grand-parents who died at later ages than the rest of the population ? This article attempt to answer that question by assessing the principal research undertaken on the subject since the beginnig of the century, …
