Regression coefficients for the associations between maternal Cd and DNA methylation at newborns imprinted genes. a. Infants born to women with high blood Cd concentrations but with lower Zn and Fe levels, had lower DNA methylation at the PLAGL1 DMR. b. Maternal higher Zn and Cd concentrations were associated with higher methylation at the PEG3 DMR in newborns. c. No associations were observed for MEG3
