a Sex differences in 8oxoG variant count were determined using a two-tailed Welch’s t-test (n = 559, t-statistic = 1.968, df = 558). Error bars represent standard error of the mean. b Violin plot showing the distribution of 8oxoG variant counts in females and males (n = 559) with effect size and confidence interval plotted on right y-axis. Dashed lines indicate the mean and dotted lines represent the 1st and 3rd quartile. The triangle represents the difference of the means, and the associated bar indicates the confidence interval.
