Leukocyte Telomere Length in Young Adults Born Preterm: Support for Accelerated Biological Ageing
BACKGROUND: Subjects born preterm have an increased risk for age-associated diseases, such as cardiovascular disease in later life, but the underlying causes are largely unknown. Shorter leukocyte telomere length (LTL), a marker of biological age, is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular...
