Electrolytes in the Aging [PDF]
Advances in Chronic Kidney Disease, 2010 The elderly population in the United States continues to grow and is expected to double by 2050. With aging, there are degenerative changes in many organs and the kidney is no exception. After 40 years of age, there is an increase in cortical glomerulosclerosis and a decline in both glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow. These changes may be
