Note: β, coefficient for methylation with an IQR increase in prenatal PM10 exposure; CHR, chromosome.

a

Discovery meta-analysis does not include the PRISM or Project Viva cohorts due to missing prenatal PM10 data.

b

Chromosomal position based on NCBI human reference genome assembly Build 37.

c

UCSC annotated gene.

d

Direction of methylation for each cohort included in the analysis (INMA, Generation R, CHS, ENVIRONAGE, Rhea, Piccolipiù, EARLI): =increased methylation, =decreased methylation, X=not available.
