  2. *DMRs were identified from the results of the meta-analysis of epigenome-wide association study results of maternal early-pregnancy serum ferritin concentrations and DNA methylation in cord blood for individual CpGs, which used results from robust linear regression models that were adjusted for gestational age at serum measurement, maternal age at intake, educational level, pre-pregnancy body mass index, smoking, child sex, cell-type proportions, and batch (model 3)
