From: Telomere tracking from birth to adulthood and residential traffic exposure
Distance to the nearest major road in association with (a) telomere length in buccal cells and (b) change in telomere length ranking between birth and adulthood. Adjusted for newborn sex, birth weight, gestational age, zygosity and chorionicity, parental educational level, maternal smoking during pregnancy, maternal age, adult age, smoking in adulthood, gamma-glutamyl transferase in fasting blood in adulthood (as an index for alcohol consumption), and telomere length in placental tissue at birth. Vertical lines denote 95% confidence intervals. *Indicates a significant (P < 0.05) change in buccal telomere length in adulthood or a change in telomere ranking. Effect size for a two-fold increase in distance from residence to major road in early/adult life (based on a model with log distance) in movers (n = 122) or in distance from residence to major road during whole life in non-movers (n = 62)
