Md = mean. SD = standard deviation. r = Pearson’s raw correlation between telomere length and gene methylation. R2 = bivariate determination coefficient (dependent variable: telomere length; independent variable: genes methylation). R2y.12 = multiple determination coefficient (dependent variable: telomere length; independent variables: age and gene methylation). Beta = standardized slope when using multiple regression models. *p < 0.05. **p < 0.01. ***p < 0.001.
