[Age dependent risk factors (author's transl)].

B Steinmann

    Aktuelle Gerontologie
    |March 1, 1980
    PubMed
    Summary

    As people age, intrinsic aging processes become significant risk factors for diseases. Preventive geriatrics requires identifying these age-dependent factors for effective health management by primary care physicians.

    Area of Science:

    • Gerontology
    • Internal Medicine
    • Preventive Medicine

    Context:

    • Aging is associated with increased susceptibility to diseases.
    • Intrinsic aging processes contribute to disease development.
    • Age-dependent risk factors are crucial in understanding disease etiology.

    Purpose:

    • To highlight the importance of aging as a risk factor for diseases.
    • To emphasize the need for identifying age-related changes with risk implications.
    • To underscore the role of preventive geriatrics in managing age-associated health risks.

    Summary:

    • Aging processes intrinsically predispose individuals to diseases, acting as significant risk factors.
    • Several categories of age-dependent risk factors contribute to various illnesses.
    • Determining these aging processes is essential for implementing targeted preventive measures.

    Impact:

    • Enhances understanding of disease causation in aging populations.
    • Informs the development of age-specific preventive healthcare strategies.
    • Positions general practitioners and family doctors as key providers of age-dependent geriatric care.
