Metabolic and Genetic Markers of Biological Age
Biological age is a concept that takes into account the heterogeneity of the aging process in different individuals that results in differences in survival and variations in relative health. Any measure of biological age must be better than chronological age at predicting mortality. Several quantitative measures of biological age have been developed. Among them are frailty indices, one of which...
متن کاملAge of Biological Markers
Way back in 1898 Freud, the propounder of psychoanalysis and enunciator of psychological concepts of mental illnesses wrote to his friend Fliess—"I have no desire at all to leave the psychology hanging in the air with no organic basis but beyond the feeling of conviction (that there must be such a basis), I have nothing either theoretical or therapeutic to work on and so I must behave as if con...
متن کاملBiological identification systems: genetic markers.
Individual animals differ from each other on a number of biological levels. At the most basic level, the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of each animal is different, and transcription of the DNA code yields variations at the protein level, which in turn give rise to individual diversity at the physical level. In recent years, accessing the primary genetic code of individual animals has become strai...
متن کاملHematological and Biological Markers of Neonatal Sepsis
Septicemia in neonates is the commonest cause of mortality. Early recognition and diagnosis of neonatal sepsis remains a challenge because of the variable and nonspecific clinical presentation. The laboratory criteria are often non specific and not fully reliable. The objective of this review is to highlight the various hematological and biological markers of neonatal sepsis. We searched ...
متن کاملPredicting gestational age using neonatal metabolic markers
BACKGROUND Accurate gestational age estimation is extremely important for clinical care decisions of the newborn as well as for perinatal health research. Although prenatal ultrasound dating is one of the most accurate methods for estimating gestational age, it is not feasible in all settings. Identifying novel and accurate methods for gestational age estimation at birth is important, particula...
