Table 3 The top 10 Bonferroni-significant CpGs ranked by the magnitude of positive and negative effect (5 CpGs each) from the meta-analysis on the association between continuous GA and offspring DNA methylation at birth adjusted for estimated cell proportions

From: Epigenome-wide meta-analysis of blood DNA methylation in newborns and children identifies numerous loci related to gestational age
