OR values for the variables selected by the LASSO procedure (described in “Methods”). OR values were obtained with the exponential function of β coefficient, which compares the strength of the effect of each individual independent variable with the dependent variable. The higher the absolute value of β, the stronger the effect. β = 0, OR = 1 (neutral); β < 0, OR < 1 (L); β > 0, OR > 1 (H).

H, OR > 2; L, OR < 0.5.
