Prognostic Value of Leukocyte Telomere Length in Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease

9 May 2008

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Telomere shortening has been proposed as a marker of biological aging. Whether leukocyte telomere length is associated with mortality among patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: We measured leukocyte telomere length in 780 patients with stable CAD in a prospective cohort study. Participants were categorized by quartiles of telomere length. Hazard Ratios...
