The distributions of DeltaAvβ values for 914 CpG sites differentially methylated in the group of institutionalized children compared to the group of children living with their biological parents (min DeltaAvβ = −0.155, max = 0.170, mean = 0.036, SD = 0.032). These distributions show a significant predominance of positive values of DeltaAvβ. This means the predominance of sites that are characterized by higher levels of methylation in the genomes of children from target group, relative to the comparison group.
