Oocyte number and quality decrease with advancing age. Thus, fecundity decreases as age increases, with a more rapid decline after the mid-30s. Patients more than 35 years old should receive prompt evaluation for causes of infertility after no more than 6 months of attempted conception.

Osteoporosis is an important public health problem. Over the next few years the health-care demands of osteoporosis and hip fractures are expected to increase ten-fold. In this article, the pathogenesis and classification of age-related osteoporosis are analyzed. Treatment options are examined and a rational management plan for this entity is discussed.

Clinical Background: Older age has been associated with higher prevalence and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The presence of CKD leads to an increased risk of end-stage renal disease, cardiovascular diseases, and death. Epidemiology: Progressive aging of the population is accompanied by an increase in the prevalence of CKD worldwide.

This presentation considers the vulnerability of the upper alimentary and respiratory tracts to environmental insults during aging. A specific example, salivary gland secretion, is discussed. Available data suggest that while aging per se does not affect salivary performance adversely, It does appear to compromise the glands in such a way that older ...
