The associations between nc886 epiallele status and early life conditions. The prevalence of nc886 epiallele methylation status is presented according to a mother’s age, b family’s income quartile, and c family’s occupational status. The white portion of the columns describes the proportion of non-methylated individuals and green the portion that of hemi-methylated individuals. Due to low numbers, intermediately methylated individuals were discarded from the analysis. The prevalence of non-methylated individuals is lower among individuals born to mothers aged 21–35 years (a), or to families in the highest income quartile or families with at least one parent working in an upper non-manual occupation. Between-group comparisons analyzed with a Chi-squared test are presented by solid lines and Chi-squared test over groups by dotted lines
