The reduced model is adjusted for age, sex, study site (if applicable), total (intra)cranial volume (cm3), white blood cell proportion (%), technical covariates and genetic principal components. The full model is additionally adjusted for BMI, smoking status and systolic and diastolic blood pressure measures. Chr = chromosome; EA = European ancestry; FDR = local false discovery rate value; n = number of subjects tested for the CpG; P = P-value; Q = Q-value; SE = standard error; Z = Z-score.
