Fig. 2From: Risk factors associated with the detection of pulmonary emphysema in older asymptomatic respiratory subjectsa Linear regression analysis of telomere length and age in individuals with emphysema and controls. Telomere length measured by qPCR from control samples (red circles, n = 83) and subject with emphysema (blue triangles, n = 27) was plotted relative to age. The area between the lines delineates the 10th to 90th percentile predicted bands.
