1 study
  1. Brain-predicted age is associated with heritability in silico (h2 ≥ 0.5).

    “Brain-predicted age was a heritable phenotype for all models and input data (h2 ≥ 0.5).”

1 study
  1. Brain-predicted age predicts chronological age in silico (r = 0.96, MAE = 4.16 years).

    “CNN accurately predicted chronological age using GM (correlation between brain-predicted age and chronological age r = 0.96, mean absolute error [MAE] = 4.16 years)”

Fluid intelligence

1 study
  1. Brain-predicted age is associated with fluid intelligence in humans.

    “Having a brain-predicted age indicative of an older-appearing brain was associated with: weaker grip strength, poorer lung function, slower walking speed, lower fluid intelligence, higher allostatic load and increased mortality risk.”

Brain age estimates were higher across six disorders

The gap between scan-estimated and actual age exceeded age-matched controls by 7.64 years in schizophrenia and 7.61 years in frontotemporal dementia.The gap between scan-estimated and actual age exceeded age-matched controls by 7.64 years in schizophrenia and 7.61 years in frontotemporal dementia.
