COSMOS ancillary study of 958 older adults
The description reports a COSMOS ancillary study. It included 958 older adults who took a daily multivitamin over two years. The description does not state the comparison arm, so no group contrast is described here. [1]
Two of five epigenetic clocks changed
According to the description, two of five epigenetic clocks changed with the daily multivitamin over two years. Epigenetic clocks are described as surrogate measurements. The description does not say in which direction the clocks changed or how large the changes were. [1]
Clock changes are not proof of longer life
The description states that clock changes are surrogate measurements, not proof of extra years alive. It therefore does not claim that the multivitamin extends lifespan. The description also does not report mortality or lifespan outcomes. [1]
