  1. Data are presented as standardized regression coefficients (β) retained in LASSO models. Dash (–) indicates that the predictor was excluded from the final model (coefficient shrunk to zero). PCOS, polycystic ovary syndrome; BMI, body mass index; WC, waist circumference; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin; TNF-alfa, tumor necrosis factor alpha. Statistical significance was not tested; selection reflects penalized model retention.
