A key uncertainty in the obesity-mortality association continues to be how this association changes over the life course. Prior studies tend to rely on cross-sectional design with static weight status taken at the time of the survey. This s...
Does Salivary Telomere Length Explain Race/Ethnic Differences in Aging? [0.03%]
唾液腺端粒长度能解释不同种族/族群间的衰老差异吗?
Lauren Brown,Catherine García,Jennifer Ailshire
Lauren Brown
Telomere length (TL) is a biomarker that can be used to characterize variability in aging and may explain race/ethnic differences in aging. Yet, it remains unclear if TL is related to aging-associated health risks in multi-ethnic population...
