A comparison of paternal and maternal body mass index (BMI) epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) effect estimates across the genome. Absolute effect estimates (y-axis) are plotted against genomic location (x-axis; numbers indicate chromosome number). Paternal BMI EWAS meta-analysis results are plotted on the top, with maternal EWAS meta-analysis results on a mirrored axis below. Models were not mutually adjusted for the other parent’s BMI (for a comparison of the mutually adjusted results, see Supporting Information File 7, available as Supplementary data at IJE online).
