(a) Telomere length measurements in lungs of 32 subjects with IPF by MMqPCR. No correlation was found (Spearman correlation; r = 0.015, p = 0.935). (b) Comparison of telomere length between 8 diagnostic biopsy and 8 explant lung specimens. Samples belonging to the same patient are connected. Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank tests showed no differences in telomere length between samples (p = 0.25).
