2. Figure 1
Distribution from smallest to largest t/s expressed as a ratio of telomere to single gene signals for 3576 subjects. The overall distribution is separated into quintiles, and the t/s range for each quintile is given. TL = telomere length.

Box and whisker plots showing the median, inner-quartile range, and maximum and minimum t/s values for the 3576 subjects segregated by age at the time of sample collection. TL = telomere length; t/s = telomere/single gene ratio.

5. Figure 4
Comparison of mean (± SD) t/s values for patients presenting with paroxysmal (Px), persistent (Ps), and permanent (Pm) atrial fibrillation (AF). Also shown is the mean t/s for those without AF. TL = telomere length; t/s = telomere/single gene ratio.
