    Evaluation of a blood-based geroscience biomarker index in a randomized trial of caloric restriction and exercise in older adults with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

    Intermediate endpoints are needed to evaluate the effect of interventions targeting the biology of aging in clinical trials. A working group identified five blood-based biomarkers that may serve such a purpose...
