Telomere lengths of patients in the study cohort segregated into different subgroups as compared with healthy age-matched controls. The groups are AA patients with no acquired mutations (green triangles) and AA patients with somatic mutations (red circles). The trend line for normal controls (black rhomboid) is also shown. The relative telomere lengths of normal controls and AA patients with or without somatic mutations is shown in the figure inset.
