Figure 1.
Scatter plot for relative telomere length in blood versus relative telomere length in muscle from the MEI and Botnia-PPP studies (n = 58). Partial Correlation coefficient (p-value): r = 0.39 (0.003), Regression coefficient (95% CI): 0.43 (0.15; 0.71) standardized units of muscle telomere length per standardized unit of leucocyte telomere length, R2 = 0.37. Estimates are adjusted for age, sex and study.
