LTL: leukocyte telomere length; PAI-1: plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.
Adjusted for age, sex, education level, study site, lifestyle (smoking, drinking), changes in metabolic factors (waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, fasting glucose, insulin, low- and high- density lipoprotein cholesterol, estimated glomerular filtration rate), follow-up years, and baseline plasma PAI-1 and LTL.
Change in LTL (T/S ratio) associated with per unit of change in plasma PAI-1.
