In this paper a cross-sectional case study was conducted on clinical data comprising 117 human male and female subjects with and without Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). Characteristics such as anthropometric, clinical and biochemical measurements were collected. Methods: Association of these variables with T2D and BMI were assessed using penalized hierarchical linear and logistic regression. In particular, elastic net, hdi and glinternet were used as regularization models to distinguish between cases and controls. Differential network analysis using closed-form.. Read More»
