Leukocyte Telomere Length in Relation to 17 Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Disease Risk: A Cross-Sectional Study of US Adults

Fig 1. Correlation structure of blood constituent cell types, ages 20–84, NHANES 1999–2002. The scale to the right of the figure indicates the strength of correlation, with darker and larger dots indicating stronger correlation. The six constituent blood components are ordered by hierarchical clustering.

Fig 2. Correlation structure of biomarkers, ages 20–84, NHANES 1999–2002. The scale to the right of the figure indicates the strength of correlation, with darker and larger dots indicating stronger correlation. The 17 biomarker components are ordered by hierarchical clustering.
