a Global DNA methylation by LINE1 analysis in IUGR and control samples. The mean global methylation for each group with respectively error bar. No significant difference was observed between the IUGR cases and non-IUGR (CTRL) cases, using t test. b Comparison of the mean percentage of global 5-hmC between the two groups (IUGR vs. controls). The mean global hydroxymethylation for each group with respectively error bar. No significant difference was observed between the IUGR cases and non-IUGR (CTRL) cases, using t test. CTRL, control samples; IUGR, intrauterine growth restriction samples
