Epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) analysis using the Hannum et.al. method. It is determined by taking the residual from the regression of epigenetic age (based on β values of 71 CpG probes) on chronological age. Positive EAA values thus suggest that the epigenetic age is greater than expected based on chronological age. A EAA at different time points through the course of weight loss. B Regression estimates (beta estimate) were analyzed considering the time point 0 (pre-surgery) as reference
