We have considered the so-called "teleological" aspects in many senile diseases that is a kind of effort to compensate alterations due to the aging process, where that process takes place with biological trouble (which happens for most subjects since aging without biological trouble is a prerogative of a minority of privileged people who will have a longevous and healthy life). These "teleological" aspects represent the foundation of the phisiopathology of adaptation in advanced age and the key for a correct interpretation of it and therefore for a correct preventive and curative program.
我们已经在许多老年疾病中考虑了所谓的“目的论”方面，这是一种补偿衰老过程所导致变化的努力，而衰老过程伴随着生物学问题发生（因为大多数人都会经历衰老，没有生物学问题的衰老只是少数享有特权、将拥有长寿健康生活的人的特权）。这些“目的论”方面代表了高龄适应生理病理学的基础，以及正确解释它的关键，因此也是正确预防和治疗方案的关键。
