Telomere length and incident atrial fibrillation - data of the PREVEND cohort.
<h4>Background</h4>The incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) increases with age. Telomere length is considered a marker of biological ageing. We investigated the association between leukocyte telomere length and incident AF in the Dutch Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-stage Disease...
