Introduction: Life expectancy is getting longer, and the proportion of the elderly population is increasing. Therefore, the concept of healthy aging gains importance and attracts attention in the scientific community. This article presented a ten-year bibliometric analysis of articles on healthy aging in the Scopus database. Methods: The Scopus database was used for the bibliometric analysis. The publication list was created using the keywords «aging well» and «healthy aging.» The number of articles, active countries-journals, frequent keywords, prolific authors, and funding sources were defined. Results: An upward trend was observed in the number of articles related to healthy aging between 2013 and 2022. The five leading countries in publication activity were the United States, China, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Canada, respectively. The most prolific authors were Ferrucci, L., Franceschi, C., Evans, M.K., Bennett, D.A., and Deary, I.J. The five most active journals were Plos One, Scientific Reports, International Journal of Molecular Sciences, International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, and Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience. Conclusion: Bibliometric analysis is a valuable method for assessing global trends in producing scientific literature on particular topics. This study revealed an upward trend in articles on healthy aging over time, indicating an increasing interest and focus on this topic. As the elderly population grows, it is anticipated that interest in healthy aging will progressively increase. It will be advantageous for researchers interested in this field to establish collaborations with prominent authors and institutions. Thus, they will canalize their future investigation in the proper direction.

Body image disorders involve dissatisfaction with a specific part or all of a woman’s body. A woman experiencing body image dissatisfaction may face psychological problems such as mood disorder, decreased self-esteem, and decreased physical activity. With the reflection of the weak-ideal woman’s appearance by society and mass media, women may be exposed to these problems and can internalize this by comparing their bodies with the idealized women’s bodies. Women may experience major hormonal changes due to pregnancy and menopause that affect their physical appearance, roles, and responsibilities in society and family, and breast and gynecological cancers. Alternative therapeutic methods for body image disorders are important for women. Physical activity and exercise, yoga, dance therapy, body awareness therapy, and manual therapy can all be recommended for women to improve body image.

Body image is a crucial part of subjective experience in daily life. Most women are concerned with their body transformations due to pregnancy, delivery, breastfeeding, menopause, weight gain and obesity, serious gynecological and other diseases. Body image perceptions may influence women’s health, sexuality, fertility, and social behavior. Popularized images of slim models and celebrities adversely affect women’s perceptions of beauty and attractiveness. The difference between the perceived body image and desired silhouette may result in body image dissatisfaction. Outlook comparisons may influence the quality of life and result in anxiety, loss of confidence, and sexual ill-health.

Rapid advancements in patient-care facilities are steadily increasing the global elderly population. Despite this demographic shift, the elderly population continues to be poorly represented in research studies. This report explores the potential of survey-based research as a valuable tool to gather missing data and ensure inclusivity of the elderly population, especially in the context of rare rheumatic diseases.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a frequent rheumatic disease of adults and older age. A sedentary lifestyle is the primary cause of knee, hip, and spine OA. However, it also affects the hands and causes disability in everyday life. Physical therapy improves muscle strength and quality of life, maintains a range of motion and flexibility, and reduces pain. Although more studies on OA are needed, from the patient’s perspective, physical therapy is effective. Sarcopenia and decreased muscle strength of the joints affects the evolution of OA. Inactivity and reduced function developing with age and OA favor obesity and sarcopenia. Exercise and the addition of various physical agents significantly reduce the burden related to OA.

Introduction. Patients with acute myocardial infarction should be treated with early revascularization. Patients over 73 years have a higher risk of infarct-related cardiogenic shock, which is a leading cause of lethality. Unfortunately, little is known about myocardial revascularization care for elderly people in Ukraine. We presented a 92-year-old lady with an acute chest pain case report, which was not revealed by analgesics. Important clinical findings. Coronary angiography revealed thrombotic occlusion of the distal segment of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and floated thrombus in LAD mid-segment; stenosis of the left circumflex artery (LCx) close to the first obtuse marginal artery (OM1). The main diagnosis. Acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation of the left ventricle anterior wall (anterior-STEMI). Calcific aortic valve disease, severe aortic valve stenosis, significant mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation, pulmonary hypertension. Heart failure with reduced LVEF (<40%), NYHA class III symptoms. Intervention. The decision was to perform urgent stenting in LAD and balloon angioplasty in LCx. Successful hospital discharge was after 14 days. Conclusions. Take-away lessons: Elderly patients with acute myocardial infarction can be successfully treated in Ukraine. Age and comorbidities are not a contraindication for early myocardial revascularization.

Elie Metchnikoff is well known for his fundamental works in the field of cellular immunity and phagocytosis for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize. He gained his international reputation for ground-breaking research across numerous academic disciplines: biology, embryology, zoology, bacteriology, etc. The great visionary leader of science launched evolutionary embryology, comparative immunology, gerontology, to name a few. Most of his scientific works were influenced with philosophical reflections on the meaning of life, old age, and death. This article attempts to overview his legacy in the field of orthobiosis, or active and healthy aging. It discusses Metchnikoff’s hypothesis of self-poisoning of an organism and related views on orthobiosis.

Inflammatory rheumatic disorders come with their plethora of complications including accelerated ovarian aging and the associated adversities which could be a consequence of disease itself or treatment with immunosuppressants. While aiming for treat-to-target in these patients, its effect on the ovaries takes a backseat. This review focusses on this underexplored avenue of effect of inflammation, inflamm-aging and the associated complications that come with early menopause, in the context of autoimmune rheumatic diseases (AIRDs). Some autoimmune diseases like lupus have a major role of estrogen in their causation and tend to be less severe when the onset is after menopause, while in other inflammatory arthritis like rheumatoid arthritis (RA), estrogen may have some anti-inflammatory potential. Inflamm-aging that is associated with the AIRDs also leads to early menopause and premature ovarian insufficiency in some patients, which adds-on to the morbidity and sometimes, mortality. With early ovarian aging and precipitous decline in circulating estrogen, there is accelerated reduction in the bone mass and early set-in of osteoporosis. Long-term steroids, on-going inflammation and RA itself are major risk factors. The high risk of detrimental fragility fractures in these patients with a consequential reduction in the quality of life with higher loss of disability adjusted life years (DALY) and poorer functional outcomes, contributes to long-term morbidity. While remission induction and maintenance are a major part of treatment, physicians should exercise a keen eye towards recognizing early menopause and its adversities and inculcate measures for osteo-protection and prevent adding on to the morbidity. Future prospects would include attempts at delaying ovarian aging by targeting mTOR/S6 kinase pathways and preservation of ovarian tissue.

Exercising is an essential component of healthy aging. The benefits of exercise are numerous. There are certain benefits on physical performance. Exercise in older adults can increase endurance, improve balance and quality of life. The benefits of exercise are not limited to physical health. Psychological variables such as depressive mood and anxiety can also be modified by regular exercise. There are several types of exercise regimens. The most common exercise types tailored to older adults include aerobic training, strengthening, flexibility exercises and balance exercises. Specific exercises can be directed to individuals with certain health disorders. Exercising may mediate psychological health through the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis. Improved sleep via exercise can further lead to an improvement in mood and cognition. The current article reviewed the recent literature regarding the effects of exercising on psychological well-being in older adults.

As COVID-19 morbidity rates continue to increase tremendously across the world, it has a profound effect on female health. The available data suggest that men demonstrate greater disease severity and/or mortality than women in the middle-aged group, however, these differences seem not to be preserved in the elderly patients. Clinicians should consider gender disparities in diagnostic and therapeutic management. The severity of COVID-19 viral infection is tightly linked with cytokine balance which is inevitably influenced by hormonal changes. Lack of estrogens during the ageing process in women poses a significant threat during the acute phase as well as in the sequel, which may result in autoimmunity or long-term complications. Research on female ageing amid the COVID-19 pandemic is urgently needed to alleviate immune dysfunction in these patients, define best practices, and develop health promotion strategies.
