aAge signatures indicate the CpGs used for model construction. When CpG differs from that investigated in the BeadChip array, distance is indicated in parenthesis. + and − indicates downstream and upstream, respectively. bAccuracy is indicated by MAD from chronological age. When indicated by root-mean-square error or median of absolute difference, accuracy is marked by superscript c or d, respectively.
