Measures of glycemia were transformed to z-scores (mean = 0 and SD = 1) before the analysis to allow comparability in the effect estimates among traits. CpGs analyzed were identified in the epigenome-wide association study of second trimester maternal HbA1c (n = 412). Highlighted in bold are associations identified with p < 0.05 with one measure of glycemia.
