Abstract
Biological age can be assessed by means of clinical parameters. Some parameters are more suitable than others; criteria for a rational selection of such parameters are discussed in detail. The main tool used in this essay is multiple linear regression. The data reveal a characteristic sex difference in human and, presumably, mammalian aging.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
