Figure 1: Flowchart of inclusions and exclusions of the study population in the
HAVEN study (Heart Defects, Vascular Status, Genetic Factors and
Nutrition). COD = congenital outflow defects.
Figure 2: Box-and-whisker plot demonstrating the distribution of telomere length
(T/S ratio) in control mothers (offspring without congenital defects)
[N=424] compared with A) total congenital outflow defect group (COD)
[N=306] and B) ventricular septal defect (VSD) group [N=113].
Boxplots present median, 10th, 25th, 75th, and 90th percentile. Telomere
length were compared by Mann-Whitney U test.

maternal age and b) maternal plasma total homocysteine. Spearman rank
correlation test is performed to test the correlations.
