Figure 1.
(A)The correlation between absolute telomere length and age is shown, demonstrating that shorter telomere lengths are observed with older age (p=0.017, Pearson's rho=-0.268). (B) Absolute telomere length measurements are shown for T1, T2, and T3. By paired t-test, there was a significant decrease in telomere length between T1 and T2 (p=0.045), but no significant change between T2 and T3 (p=0.244).
