The objective of this study was to examine whether shorter leukocyte telomere length (LTL) is associated with more rapid pulmonary function decline in a longitudinal study of World Trade Center (WTC) responders. WTC responders (
N
 = 284) participating in a monitoring study underwent blood sampling and were followed prospectively for spiromet...
