Article Title: Paternal DNA Methylation May Be Associated With Gestational Age at Birth
doi: 10.1177/2516865720930701
Figure Lengend Snippet: Kaplan-Meier curve showing gestational age at birth with DNA methylation levels of cg11408933 ( PCDH1 , protocadherin 1) dichotomized at the median. Group 1 of the CpG cg11408933 includes subjects with lower DNAm levels and group 2 subjects with higher DNAm levels.
Article Snippet: The Bioconductor IMA (Illumina methylation analyzer) package and the ComBat package were applied to preprocess raw DNAm data, including removing background noise, adjusting for inter-array variation, performing peak correction, and removing batch effects.
Techniques: DNA Methylation Assay
