Note. AIC: Akaike information criteria; BIC: Bayesian information criteria; B2: beta of the second kind; DHEAS: dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate; GB2: generalized beta of the second kind; GG: generalized gamma; HbA1c: glycated hemoglobin; OLS: ordinary least squares; SM: Singh–Maddala. For each biomarker, bold values highlight those models that exhibit the best performance according to AIC and BIC.
