N2 - Objectives: The concurrent contributions of dynamic, interrelated late-life parameters, such as body mass index (BMI), cognition, and physical functioning on mortality in the elderly are unclear, as is the influence of APOE genotype. We explored these measures in relation to 7-year mortality in long-lived Italian elderly. Design: A representative, age-stratified, population sample. Setting: The Treviso Longeva (TRELONG) Study, in Treviso, Italy. Participants: Three hundred eleven men and 357 women, aged 70 years and older (mean age 84 ± 8 years). Measurements: Seven-year mortality, BMI, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score, Activities of Daily Living (ADL), APOE genotype, and a variety of clinical and survey data. Results: In separate age-and sex-adjusted analyses, BMI
