好妻子、良好的握力、良好的教育、不吸烟及你能够活到85岁！
According to a long-term study which was conducted over a 40 year period, among the most significant factors influencing longevity in men were a strong grip, a wife, not smoking and a good education.
一项长达四十多年的长期研究表明，影响男性寿命的最主要因素包括强有力的握力、配偶、不吸烟和良好的教育。
Dr. Bradley J. Willcox and colleagues of the Pacific Health Research Institute and Kuakini Medical Center in Honolulu, examined potential biological, lifestyle and sociodemographic risk factors present at middle-age to identify risk factors for healthy survival.
Bradley J. Willcox博士、在檀香山的太平洋健康研究所以及Kuakini 医学中心的同事们通过考察在中年时的潜在生物学的、生活方式及社会人口统计风险因素来确定健康风险因素。
Their study of 5,820 Japanese-American middle-aged men with an average age of 54 in Honolulu, Hawaii, came up with nine important factors which appear to provide a clue to why some men live longer than others.
此项研究调查了檀香山及夏威夷的5，820名平均年龄为54岁的日裔美籍中年男子，提出了可能造成某些男性寿命较长的9个主要因素。
It is suggested that having low blood pressure, low blood sugar levels, low levels of bad cholesterol, not drinking alcohol excessively, keeping down the weight, not smoking, having a strong grip, achieving a high level of education, and being married appear to be the keys to a healthy life during old age.
以下因素被认为是老年健康生活的关键因素：较低的血压水平、较低的血糖水平、较低的不良胆固醇水平、不过分的饮酒、控制体重、不吸烟、强有力的握力、较高的受教育程度及已婚。
Grip strength, which can be measured by a test, is a strong indication of upper body strength.
握力可以通过测试来评定，它是体现上肢力量的主要因素。
The researchers say this is consistent with theories of aging that suggest that better-built organisms last longer and that physiological reserve is an important determinant of survival, and may also be a marker of physical fitness.
研究者表示这与衰老理论是一致的，比较健康的有机体存活时间更长，生理储备是生存下去的重要决定因素，也是体能的标志。
The fastest-growing age group in most industrialized countries are those who survive to 85 years or older and they are among the largest consumers of health care resources; therefore being able to identify strategies for remaining healthy, vigorous, and disability-free at older ages has become a major priority.
在大部分的工业化国家中，增长速度最快的年龄群体是年龄在85岁及以上的群体，他们是卫生保健资源的最大消费群体之一，因此寻找老年人如何保持健康、精力充沛及没有残疾的方法成为优先考虑的主要问题。
At the start of the study in 1965 the participants were on average 54 years old and the researchers found that the men who managed to meet all the healthy criteria had an 80 percent chance of living to age 80, and also were much more likely to reach old age while avoiding illness.
在研究开始的1965年时，受试者的平均年龄为54岁，研究者发现那些设法符合所有健康标准的受试者有80％的可能性可以活到80岁，在避免生病的情况下也非常可能活的时间更长。
Dr. Willcox, the author of the study says if the risk factors were avoided a man had a 60 percent plus chance of being healthy at that age, whereas if a man had six or more of these risk factors he had less than a 10 percent chance of living into his mid-80s.
此项研究的发起人Willcox 博士表示，如果风险因素都被避免了，那么一个人在85岁时仍然健康的可能性再增加60％，如果一个人面临6种或者更多的风险因素，那么他只有不到10％的机会可以活到85岁。
The study also found that more than twice as many American women than men lived to age 85, and three times as many women lived into their 90s.
此项研究还发现，年龄为85岁的美国女性数量是男性的2倍以上，而年龄超过90岁的美国女性数量是男性的3倍。
Of the 5,820 original study participants, 2451, or 42 per cent, survived to age 85, and 655 participants, or 11 per cent, reached that age without suffering serious health problems such as heart disease, cancer, or diabetes.
在5，820名受试者中，2，451名受试者也就是42％的人，活到了85岁，在这个年龄时，655名受试者也就是11％的人没有严重的健康问题如心脏病、癌症或糖尿病。
