Box and Whisker plot for methylation profiles of the 6 CpG sites and mean methylation in both studied groups. Boxes represent 25th and 75th percentiles. Whiskers indicate the 1.0 fold standard deviation. The median is shown as a horizontal line and the mean value as a square within the box. Individual data points are displayed as filled diamonds beside the boxes. Patients are represented by red diamonds while control subjects are represented by blue diamonds. P values are shown above the plots for each site. Significant differences between patients and controls are indicated by an asterisk
