The activities conducted in the context of this project are summarized below: 1. Trace and update contact information on BLSA participants who are not currently coming to Baltimore for follow-up assessment, never formally dropped out from the study, and have been contacted (in person or over the telephone) at least once since 1990. 2. Make a telephone contact with the BLSA participants eligible for home visits to establish their status, their willingness to participate in the home visit program or, if not, in a telephone interview. 3. Create a formal process for tracking, contacting and following BLSA participants, and implement a process where traditional visits and home visits are integrated and serve complementary purposes. 4. In BLSA participants enrolled in the home visit program, conduct an extensive ascertainment of the health status, aimed at ascertaining multiple health-related outcomes (dementia, mobility limitation, ADL disability, frailty, CHD, cancer etc.). 5. In BLSA participants enrolled in the home visit program, collect a blood sample to be used for basic tests of clinical chemistry, DNA extraction and storage of cells, serum and plasma. 6. Provide participants and their families with a detailed description of the study, and obtain informed consent for participation, including consent for the use of previously collected biological specimens. 7. Create a database with all the tracking information and all information collected over the telephone interview and during in person home visits, maintaining full compatibility with the BLSA core database.

在该项目的背景下进行的活动总结： 1。有关BLSA参与者的跟踪和更新联系信息，这些参与者目前没有来巴尔的摩进行后续评估，从未正式退出研究，并且自1990年以来至少与（亲自或电话）联系一次。 2。与有资格参加家庭访问的BLSA参与者进行电话联系，以确定自己的身份，愿意参加家庭访问计划，或者在电话面试中（如果没有）。 3.创建一个正式的过程，用于跟踪，联系和关注BLSA参与者，并实施一个过程，在该过程中，传统的访问和家庭访问被整合并提供补充目的。 4。在BLSA参与者中，参加了家庭访问计划，对健康状况进行了广泛的确定，旨在确定多种与健康相关的结果（痴呆症，移动性限制，ADL残疾，脆弱，脆弱，CHD，癌症等）。 5。在参加家庭访问计划的BLSA参与者中，收集了一个血液样本，用于用于临床化学，DNA提取和细胞储存的基本测试，血清和血浆。 6.为参与者及其家人提供对研究的详细描述，并获得知情同意，包括同意使用先前收集的生物标本。 7.创建一个数据库，其中包含所有跟踪信息以及通过电话访谈和亲自访问期间收集的所有信息，并保持与BLSA核心数据库的完全兼容性。
