Fig. 5From: The association between Alu hypomethylation and severity of type 2 diabetes mellitusCorrelation between Alu methylation and age in the FBS and HbA1C groups. Correlation between % Alu methylation and age in normal (a) pre-DM (b), and DM (c) for the FBS group. Association between Alu methylation with age grouped by HbA1C for normal (d), pre-DM (e), and DM (f). Each plot represents Alu methylation levels of sample. Pearson’s correlation coefficients (r) with P values are indicated (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.001)Back to article page
