Associations of Midlife Leukocyte Telomere Length With Measures of Left Atrial Function in Community‐Dwelling Older Adults: The ARIC Study

It is unknown whether atrial myopathy, ascertained by poor left atrial (LA) function, is associated with biological aging independent of chronological age. Such an association would indicate that atrial myopathy may be preventable by intervening on modifiable risk factors that accelerate aging. Ther...
