Table 4 P-values and r-squared values (in parentheses) obtained from multi factorial ANOVA models of the effect of sex, ELS, and combined 5-HTTLPR rs25531 genotype grouped according to Wendland et al. [ 23 ] on SLC6A4 methylation

From: New-born females show higher stress- and genotype-independent methylation of SLC6A4 than males
