Should not yet change clinical aging assessments; leaves open whether this score predicts outcomes beyond chronological age.

p-value: p=<0.001
A biological age score incorporating cardiovascular and inflammatory biomarkers is superior to chronological age in assessing the rate of aging in healthy Chinese individuals.
Bai et al. (2009) conducted a cross-sectional in Healthy aging (n=852). Biological Age Score (BAS) vs. Chronological age (CA) was evaluated on Correlation of Biological Age Score (BAS) with chronological age (CA) (r = 0.893, p=<0.001). A biological age score incorporating cardiovascular and inflammatory biomarkers was significantly correlated with chronological age (r = 0.893, p < 0.001) in healthy Chinese adults.
