Fig 3. The final structural model after testing the associations of socio-behavioral and biochemical factors with pre-diabetes in (A) Men and (B) Women.

Fit indices were acceptable for both SEM models of men (χ2 = 494.87, DF = 114, χ2/DF = 4.34, RMSEA = 0.037, SRMR = 0.029, GFI = 0.98, CFI = 0.94, IFI = 0.94, NFI = 0.92) and women (χ² = 480.41, DF = 114, χ²/DF = 4.21, RMSEA = 0.032, SRMR = 0.026, GFI = 0.98, CFI = 0.95, IFI = 0.95, NFI = 0.94).
