Telomere length in COPD: Relationships with physical activity, exercise capacity, and acute exacerbations.

<h4>Rationale</h4>Shorter leukocyte telomere length (LTL) is associated with reduced health-related quality of life and increased risk for acute exacerbations (AEs) and mortality in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Increased physical activity and exercise capacity are associ...
