This age effect is specific for mosaic anomalies. The same logistic regression performed with the non-mosaic anomalies did not have a significant age effect (p=0.11) and the sign of the regression coefficient estimate was reversed (Supplementary Figure 8). This result indicates that our classification method distinguishes effectively between acquired and constitutional anomalies.
