Description:
The Honolulu-Asia Aging Study (HAAS) was a longitudinal aging study examining the prevalence and risk factors for dementia in over 3,000 male participants. HAAS was established in 1991 as an extension of the Honolulu Heart Program (HHP), and the study concluded in 2012. This dataset includes aging-related variables collected from exam 4 of the HHP, which is considered the baseline exam for this HAAS dataset. Selected HAAS variables were chosen for this dataset based on and standardized to the NIH’s CARD Common Data Elements list. Medication raw data files are available upon request.
