Derivation of Wheeze Trajectories Using Group-Based Trajectory Modeling
Number of groups | BIC | ∆BIC | 2(∆BIC) |
---|---|---|---|
1 | −2101.24 | — | — |
2 | −1780.54 | 320.70 | 641.40 |
3 | −1737.70 | 42.84 | 85.68 |
4 | −1729.83 | 7.87 | 15.74 |
5 | −1738.53 | −8.70 | −17.40 |
Abbreviation: BIC, Bayesian information criterion.
NOTE. Boldface represents the optimal number of trajectories chosen based on 2∆BIC > 10 and the clinical interpretability of the model.
