Fig. 1From: SMYD2 promoter DNA methylation is associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and SMYD2 expression in vascular smooth muscle cellsa Global DNA methylation levels of peripheral blood DNA in controls (aortic diameter < 25 mm, n = 92), small aneurysms (aneurysm diameter 30–55 mm, n = 45) and large aneurysms (aneurysm diameter > 55 mm, n = 48). b The linear relationship between AAA size and DNA methylation (n = 93)Back to article page
