Basic If/Then Scripting

So I'd like to understand the basic syntax that might allow more flexibility in my variable control. Here's an example of what I'm talking about:
In fixing my Child Vampire Manifestation mod, I found a lot of changes had been made to the sims.aging.aging_tuning module, and a lot of stuff has been delegated to new agingTransition tuning files. This, to me, seems to open up a few possibilities in terms of things I'd like to do with the game. One of them is to make a vampire's lifespan, in general, twice the length of a human's.
Now, when I look in the agingTransition_Human_Teen file, I see this snippet of code:
<V t="literal" n="_age_duration">
<U n="literal">
<T n="value">13</T>
</U>
</V>
Obviously, one of the ways to accomplish my goal is to make some kind of statement that, if the sim has Vampire_Manifested trait, then the value is 26 instead of 13. But I'm a bit out of sorts in terms of how I'd write that in there.
Has anyone done something like that before? Any thoughts?
