Adult living apart

1 study
  1. Adult living apart decreases DNA methylation familial correlation in humans (0.026 (95%CI: 0.019-0.033) per decade for MZ pairs; 0.027 (95%CI: 0.011-0.043) for DZ pairs).

    “decreased with the time of living apart during adulthood at rates of 0.026 (95%CI: 0.019-0.033) for MZ pairs and 0.027 (95%CI: 0.011-0.043) for DZ pairs per decade”

Childhood twin cohabitation

1 study
  1. Childhood twin cohabitation increases DNA methylation familial correlation in humans (0.16 (95%CI: 0.12-0.20) per decade for MZ pairs; 0.13 (95%CI: 0.07-0.20) for DZ pairs).

    “increased with the time of twins living together during childhood at rates of 0.16 (95%CI: 0.12-0.20) for MZ pairs and 0.13 (95%CI: 0.07-0.20) for DZ pairs per decade”
