摘　　要：The aging population has far-reaching implications for health,significantly influencing medical care and health policy.According to the World Health Organization(WHO),by 2030,one in six people worldwide will be aged 60 years or older.Furthermore,the population of individuals aged 60 and older is projected to increase from 1 billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion in 2030.By 2050,this population is expected to double,reaching 2.1 billion.Similarly,the number of people aged 80 years and older is anticipated to triple between 2020 and 2050,reaching 426 million[1].This demographic shift toward older adults,known as population aging,initially began in high-income countries but has now extended to low and middle-income nations.By 2050,approximately two-thirds of the world’s population aged 60 and older will reside in these countries.The effects of this aging population pose significant challenges for human health,necessitating substantial societal adjustments[2].
