Homeostasis model assessment is more reliable than the fasting glucose/insulin ratio and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index for assessing insulin resistance among obese children and adolescents.
OBJECTIVE Simple fasting methods to measure insulin resistance, such as the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA), fasting glucose/insulin ratio (FGIR), and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) methods, have been widely promoted for adult studies but have not been evaluated formally among children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to compare the HOMA, FGIR, and QUICKI me...
متن کاملMinimal model-based insulin sensitivity has greater heritability and a different genetic basis than homeostasis model assessment or fasting insulin.
Insulin resistance is an important risk factor for development of type 2 diabetes as well as other chronic conditions, including hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and colon cancer. To find genes for insulin resistance it is necessary to assess insulin action in large populations. We have previously measured insulin action in a large cohort of subjects (Insulin Resistance and Atherosclerosis...
متن کاملIsolated Impaired Fasting Glucose and Peripheral Insulin Sensitivity:
Objective: In a recent consensus statement, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) concluded that individuals with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) have " normal muscle insulin sensitivity. " To subject this conclusion to further validation, we evaluated the relationship between glucose tolerance categories and peripheral insulin sensitivity in a large nondiabetic population. Research Design and...
متن کاملA Product of Fasting Plasma Glucose and Fasting Plasma Insulin : Simplified
Although every clinician hopes to diagnose type 2 diabetes in the earliest stages, the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) revealed that 50% of diabetic complications are present upon the diagnosis of diabetes, even with a fasting plasma glucose (FPG) of 6.1 mM/L. This emphasizes the need for diagnosing diabetes in the earliest stages of insulin resistance, before complications su...
متن کاملBrown adipose tissue regulates glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity.
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is known to function in the dissipation of chemical energy in response to cold or excess feeding, and also has the capacity to modulate energy balance. To test the hypothesis that BAT is fundamental to the regulation of glucose homeostasis, we transplanted BAT from male donor mice into the visceral cavity of age- and sex-matched recipient mice. By 8-12 weeks following...
