a) Proportion of hyper-methylation vs. hypo-methylation among age-associated CpGs (p < 5 x 10− 8) by genomic region, stratified by sex. b) Log2 odds ratio using the median unbiased estimate and the mid-p exact 95% confidence interval were used to compare women to men by genomic region in aggregate table format. All Fisher exact tests comparing the proportiontion of hyper-methylation (vs. hypo-methylation) within individual categories to "all regions" were significant among either men or women with all p < 4.5 x 10− 8. For Fisher exact tests comparing the proportion of hyper-methylation (vs. hypomethlylation) between men and women within each category, only shore and open sea where significant with p = 0.0001 and 0.0342, respectively
