  2. Where a single P value or beta difference is presented, this represents the corresponding values from the most significant probe within the DMR on differential methylated position analysis (see Table 1). Δβ, difference in beta values (ratio of methylated and total probe intensity (0 to 1) between IBD cases and controls, positive value indicated increased methylation in cases compared with controls, negative values indicated hypomethylation in IBD cases versus controls. NA denotes methylation probes with no annotated gene symbol.
