| 설명 | 나이 먹는다는 의미로 사용되기도 하지만 일반적으로는 성장이 완료, 정지되고 그 이후에 일어나는 모든 과정을 가리킨다. 나이를 먹어감에 따라 생체의 여러 가지 기능이 저하되는데, 일반적으로 세포에 색소가 축적되거나 세포자체나 핵이 작아지는 현상이다. 개개의 세포 기능도 저하되고, 세포 내에 색소가 침착되며, 기관은 암갈색을 띤다. 또한 피부는 얇아지고 털주머니도 위축되며, 모발은 색소를 잃고 탈모된다. 현재 많은 학자들은 세포내 DNA가 끊어지거나 끊어진 경우 수복력이 감소하거나, 면역력이 저하하기 때문으로 보고 있다. 노화가 일어나는 것은 세포의 종류에 따라서 크게 다른데 신경세포처럼 태어나서 죽을 때까지 세포분열하지 않는 세포는 노화가 두드러지고 고환이나 골수의 세포처럼 항상 분열하는 세포는 노화현상이 거의 일어나지 않는다. 발병과 죽음의 확률이 높아지지만, 노쇠성 변화와 병적 변화와의 경제는 명확하지 않다. 노쇠를 야기하는 노화의 본질적 원인에 대해서는 아직 정설이 없다. |

| aging | The gradual changes in the structure and function of humans and animals that occur with the passage of time, that do not result from disease or other gross accidents, and that eventually lead to the increased probability of death as the person or animal grows older. It does not apply to microorganisms. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| aging, premature | Changes in the organism associated with senescence, occurring at an accelerated rate. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cell aging | The decrease in the cell's ability to proliferate with the passing of time. Each cell is programmed for a certain number of cell divisions and at the end of that time proliferation halts. The cell enters a quiescent state after which it experiences cell death via the process of apoptosis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| clonal aging | The deterioration in successive generations of a clone; thus paramecia and other simple forms, if allowed to reproduce asexually for a number of generations, invariably undergo deterioration, the characters of each group of descendants progressively departing from those of the original sexually produced ancestor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| skin aging | The process of aging due to changes in the structure and elasticity of the skin over time. It may be a part of physiological aging or it may be due to the effects of ultraviolet radiation, usually through exposure to sunlight. (12 Dec 1998) |
| erythrocyte aging | Senescence of the red blood cell. Lacking the organelles that make protein synthesis possible, the mature erythrocyte is incapable of self-repair, reproduction, and carrying out certain functions performed by other cells. This limits the average life span of an erythrocyte to 120 days. (12 Dec 1998) |
| activities of daily living | The things we normally do in daily living including any daily activity we perform for self-care (such as feeding ourselves, bathing, dressing, grooming), work, homemaking, and leisure. The ability or inability to perform ADLs can be used as a very practical measure of ability/disability in many disorders. (12 Dec 1998) |
| activities of daily living scale | A scale to score physical activity and its limitations, based on answers to simple questions about mobility, self-care, grooming, etc; widely used in geriatrics, rheumatology, etc. (05 Mar 2000) |
| will, living | A living will is one form of advance medical directive. Advance medical directives preserve the person's right to accept or reject a course of medical treatment even after that person becomes mentally or physically incapacitated to the point of being unable to communicate those wishes. There are two basic forms of advance directives: (1) a living will, in which the person outlines specific treatment guidelines that are to be followed by health care providers; (2) a health care proxy (also called a power of attorney for health-care decision-making) in which the person designates a trusted individual to make medical decisions in the event that he or she becomes too incapacitated to make such decisions. Advance directive requirements vary greatly from one jurisdiction to another and should therefore be drawn up in consultation with an attorney who is familiar with the laws of the particular jurisdiction. (this entry is based upon material from the national ms society). (12 Dec 1998) |
| living anatomy | The study of anatomy in the living individual by inspection. (05 Mar 2000) |
| living donors | Non-cadaveric providers of organs for transplant to related or non-related recipients. (12 Dec 1998) |

| living wills | Written, witnessed declarations in which persons request that if they become disabled beyond reasonable expectation of recovery, they be allowed to die rather than be kept alive by extraordinary means. (12 Dec 1998) |
