Abstract

The detection of stress-induced premature aging with the aim of correcting damaging adaptive effects seems to be actual today. The article discusses the use of the DHEAS / cortisol index as a screening marker for accelerating the rate of biological aging in people exposed to stress.

Keywords: DHEAS/cortisol index; premature aging.
