1 Hypermethylated genes in the SAE of waterpipe smokers compared to nonsmokers with corresponding changes in gene expression. Genes are listed based on fold-change of gene expression.

2 Fold-change in HELP assay. Negative fold-change represents hypomethylation and positive fold-change represents hypermethylation.

3 Fold-change in U133 gene expression. Positive fold-change represents increased gene expression and negative fold-change represents decreased gene expression.
