Shorter telomere length is associated with COVID-19 hospitalization and with persistence of radiographic lung abnormalities
BACKGROUND: Age and comorbidity are the main determinants of COVID-19 outcome. Shorter leukocyte telomere length (TL), a hallmark of biological aging, has been associated with worse COVID-19 outcomes. We sought to determine TL in patients with severe COVID-19 requiring hospitalization to analyze whe...
