Thanks, I couldn't get into the text of the document.

I don't think this is really showing that D3 is related to telomere lengths.

There is too much noise in the data to conclude anything.

http://atvb.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/full/atvbaha;23/5/842 examines
the relationship between telomere length and CVD. It shows that a
history of hypertension, smoking, higher cholesterol, and a positive
family history of CHD and MI result in shortened telomere lengths.

In addition it does show a correlation of shortened telomere lengths
with MI.
