The Axia Journal of Gerontology and Geriatrics (AJGG) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to publishing high-quality research on aging, elderly healthcare, and geriatric medicine. Our mission is to provide a platform for geriatricians, gerontologists, healthcare providers, researchers, and policymakers to share advancements in elderly care, age-related diseases, and strategies to enhance the quality of life for older adults.
Scope:
- Geriatric Medicine – Diagnosis, management, and treatment of diseases in older adults, including multimorbidity.
- Cognitive Aging and Neurodegenerative Diseases – Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and cognitive decline.
- Frailty and Sarcopenia – Muscle loss, mobility impairment, and fall prevention strategies.
- Healthy Aging and Longevity – Lifestyle interventions, physical activity, and nutrition for aging populations.
- Geriatric Pharmacology – Polypharmacy, drug safety, and optimizing medication use in the elderly.
- Palliative and End-of-Life Care – Pain management, hospice care, and ethical considerations in aging.
- Social Gerontology and Aging Policy – Elderly care models, retirement systems, and social determinants of aging.
- Mental Health and Aging – Depression, anxiety, social isolation, and psychological well-being in older adults.
- Geriatric Rehabilitation – Post-stroke care, orthopedic rehabilitation, and assistive technology for aging individuals.
- Aging and Cardiovascular Health – Hypertension, heart failure, and stroke prevention in older adults.
- Elderly Nutrition and Metabolism – Nutritional deficiencies, obesity, diabetes, and metabolic disorders in aging.
- Falls, Balance, and Injury Prevention – Strategies to reduce fall risk, fractures, and hospitalization in the elderly.
- Aging and Immune Function – Immunosenescence, vaccine efficacy, and immune system aging.
- Long-Term and Institutional Care – Nursing home care, assisted living, and home-based care strategies.
- Technological Innovations in Geriatrics – AI in elderly care, remote patient monitoring, and wearable health devices.
AJGG serves geriatricians, gerontologists, primary care physicians, neurologists, rehabilitation specialists, researchers, social workers, and healthcare policymakers focused on aging and elderly care.
The journal follows a rigorous peer-review process, ensures international visibility through indexing in major scientific databases, and promotes rapid publication to disseminate impactful research in gerontology and geriatrics.
