The conceptually proposed IC can be easily transformed into a scoring system considering different weights of individual subdomains, which not only predicts mortality but also suggests different pathophysiologies across the life course of aging (inflammation, nutrition, stress, and ApoE4 genotype). An intervention study is needed using the composite IC score to promote healthy aging and determine the underlying pathophysiology.
