摘要：
Abstract—Since the middle of the 20th century, there has been a decrease in the rate of aging for developed countries with a maximum for ages 60–85 years. The calculation of correlation coefficients for indicators of living conditions and the degree of reduction in the rate of aging showed that the effectiveness of healthcare in the country is of the most importance for all ages. The rate of aging, calculated by the increase in the intensity of mortality, decreased by an average of 1.4–2.0 times by 2000 in comparison with 1960. The highest decreases in the rate of aging have been shown in Japan (3.3 times for older ages) and Australia (2.8 times for middle ages). The probable cause of this was a significant improvement in medical and social care and quality of life since the middle of the 20th century, as well as the influence of therapy of chronic diseases on the mechanisms of aging itself (on syndromes common to aging and chronic diseases). These results open the possibility of influencing the rate of aging, which was previously considered unlikely. © 2022, Pleiades Publishing, Inc.
