LOINC description : Question to determine the respondent's current age using his/her date of birth. Current
age is a critical component of a respondent's demographic background. DOB/current
age is essential to medical research because it captures the age at the time of the
clinical visit/diagnosis. Age is related to nearly all diseases and conditions and
is the strongest potential confounder of other effects on these processes. Current
age is often used to stratify respondents for more valid comparison (e.g., obesity
of males aged 40-45 in Mississippi).;
