  1. Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified using comb-p. The inputs for comb-p were the annotated meta-analysed outputs of at-birth EWASs
  2. CHR chromosomes, UTR untranslated region, TSS transcription start site, cds coding sequence
  3. aReference season in EWAS of individual cohorts: autumn
  4. bRegions with Šidák p value < 0.05
  5. cP value for the most significant CpG in a DMR identified by comb-p
