Change in methylation at the loci within individuals from age 7 to 17 by RWG. Test for differences using the Student’s t-test. Those who did not have RWG (n = 60) demonstrated small mean increases (cg01379158, + 0.6%; cg11531579, + 1.2%) in methylation, whereas those who had RWG (n = 34) demonstrated small (cg01379158, − 0.4%; cg11531579, − 0.6%) decreases in methylation between ages 7 and 17. Error bars represent standard deviation.
