Telomere length among Chinese oldest old

2022-07-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Telomere length (TL) is generally regarded as a biomarker of aging. TL, which is influenced by sociodemographic factors, has been shown to be inversely associated with morbidity. However, most studies were examined in the youngest old and whether the findings can be extended to the oldest old is less clear. This study examined TL and its associated factors in Chinese oldest old in Hong Kong....
