FIGURE 1. Relation of telomere-length associated variants with measured telomere length in peripheral white blood cell DNA from 1,536 women included in previous nested case-control studies of various cancers in the Shanghai Women’s Health Study.

FIGURE 1

A best-fit line (solid gray line) is drawn for the relationship of measured log-transformed telomere length with telomere-length associated weighted genetic risk score for (A) cancer cases and controls (R2=0.01, P-value=0.001) and (B) controls (N = 533) only (R2=0.01, P-value=0.04).
