Preferred term

kidney aging and diseases  

Definition(s)

  • Human kidney function declines with age, reflecting both normal processes and the cumulative impact of comorbid diseases such as hypertension and diabetes. It is crucial to recognize the decline in kidney function in older adults because poor kidney function compromises drug metabolism and may lead to kidney failure.
