  1. aCpGs are located in the gene if no distance is indicated
  2. bBased on manifest feature annotation Illumina. IGR, intergenic region
  3. cNegative beta values indicate lower DNA methylation (hypo-methylation) in cases compared with controls
  4. d p values and FDR corresponding to M values. Table is sorted on BMI associated p values. All significant hits for both outcomes are included
