Core Tip

Core Tip: Ageing and changes in eating habits promote significant physiological changes in a silent, long-term manner in the elderly population. Additionally, mapping risk groups and their primary cardiovascular and functional changes represents a considerable and legitimate challenge for screening local residents by establishing the prevalence of findings. The aim is to provide a robust and safe scientific database, capable of guiding health actions and research.
