Predicting Survival from Telomere Length versus Conventional Predictors: A Multinational Population-Based Cohort Study

6 Apr 2016

Abstract excerpt

Telomere length has generated substantial interest as a potential predictor of aging-related diseases and mortality. Some studies have reported significant associations, but few have tested its ability to discriminate between decedents and survivors compared with a broad range of well-established predictors that include both biomarkers and commonly collected self-reported data. Our aim here was to quantify the...
