HOMA INSULIN RESISTANCE INDEX

Original price was: ₹750.00.Current price is: ₹700.00.

Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) is a test that measures insulin resistanceIt’s used in clinical practice and epidemiological studies to help identify people who may have type 2 diabetes. 

How it’s calculated 

  • HOMA-IR is calculated using fasting blood sugar and insulin levels
  • The formula is: Fasting serum insulin (μU/ml) × fasting plasma glucose (mmol l)/22.5
  • The threshold HOMA-IR level that indicates insulin resistance varies by study

What it’s used for 

  • HOMA-IR is used to estimate insulin resistance, which is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease
  • It’s also used to predict the risk of metabolic syndrome and inflammatory disease

Who it’s used for 

  • HOMA-IR has been used in clinical and epidemiological studies of adults
  • It’s also been used in studies of adolescents
Other considerations
  • HOMA-IR is a biomarker for type 2 diabetes 
  • The role of HOMA-IR in non-diabetics is less clear 
  • HOMA-IR levels can vary depending on age, gender, and other factors
