Age-Related Decline Attenuation

Meaning

The clinical objective of slowing the progressive deterioration of physiological functions and structural integrity that is characteristic of the aging process. This involves therapeutic strategies aimed at mitigating the gradual loss of homeostatic capacity across multiple biological systems, including the endocrine and musculoskeletal domains. Successful attenuation seeks to extend healthspan by preserving youthful functional reserve rather than merely treating disease symptoms.
