Inflection Point Age in the Middle and Older Women - Jiangxi Province, China, 2020-2022
Abstract
WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC?: Previous studies have predominantly examined the micro-level aspects of women aging inflection points, while macro-level research using big data on the inflection points of aging among middle-aged and elderly women in China is currently limited. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT?: This study determined the inflection ages for physiological, psychological, social, and total dimensions in middle-aged, young elderly, and elderly women [(48.0-53.2) vs. (66.3-70.0) vs. (78.4-81.2) years old]. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE?: This study is important for gaining a deeper understanding of aging, identifying patterns of aging, and implementing targeted interventions to promote the overall health of Chinese women.
