Scatter plots for A the top 10000 most differentially methylated CpG sites and the top 500 most differentially methylated regions, B genes, and C promoters between PTB (x-axis) and controls (y-axis). The sparsest 1% of points are explicitly plotted, with a maximum of 10,000 points displayed, while colored points indicate differentially methylated sites or regions. mean.mean.diff (PTB vs. Controls), log2 of the mean quotient in means (mean.mean.quot.log2), and the combined p-value that is computed using Fisher’s method are ranked for all regions, to calculate the combinedRank.
