Probability density functions for the effect size between groups. These distributions are useful for selecting cutoffs for differential methylation. (A) Differences in beta values for differentially methylated probes. (B) Differences in mean delta beta for differentially methylated regions. BP, Comparison of buffy coat to polymorphonuclear leukocytes: BL, Comparison of buffy coat to lymphocytes; PL, Comparison of polymorphonuclear leukocytes to lymphocytes.
