    Among these clocks, the PhenoAge and GrimAge clocks stand out. PhenoAge is an epigenetic clock that takes chronological age into account, and GrimAge uses the mortality risks of age together with the smoking variant among others as a risk factor.

The linear dose-response model suggests that any increase in dose, no matter how small, results in an incremental increase in risk.
