Abstract：
:In 25 patients (10 male, 15 female) with systemic sclerosis aged between 28 and 79 years the biological age was determined. Alterations in the sense of "premature aging" were observed in the mean and developed stronger in male patients. They have to be counted in a greater part on the real process of disease. Compared to a healthy reference group, the expected diminishing of hand grip strength and tendon extensibility, vital capacity and partial oxygen pressure in the arteries could be confirmed. The latter correlated to an increase in rest pulse. Auditory acuity and the condition of the teeth were also reduced. Beyond that, noteworthy differences in psychological and social parameters not presumed at the beginning point to a decrease in social activities and to psychic changes. They underline the necessity of psychological counseling of the patients.
