Homeostasis model assessment: insulin resistance and ?-cell function from fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations in man
Open accessAbstract
The steady-state basal plasma glucose and insulin concentrations are determined by their interaction in a feedback loop. A computer-solved model has been used to predict the homeostatic concentrations which arise from varying degrees beta-cell deficiency and insulin resistance. Comparison of a patient's fasting values with the model's predictions allows a quantitative assessment of the contributions of insulin resistance and deficient beta-cell function to the fasting hyperglycaemia (homeostasis model assessment, HOMA). The accuracy and precision of the estimate have been determined by comparison with independent measures of insulin resistance and beta-cell function using hyperglycaemic and euglycaemic clamps and an intravenous glucose tolerance test. The estimate of insulin resistance obtained by homeostasis model assessment correlated with estimates obtained by use of the euglycaemic clamp (Rs = 0.88, p less than 0.0001), the fasting insulin concentration (Rs = 0.81, p less than 0.0001), and the hyperglycaemic clamp, (Rs = 0.69, p less than 0.01). There was no correlation with any aspect of insulin-receptor binding. The estimate of deficient beta-cell function obtained by homeostasis model assessment correlated with that derived using the hyperglycaemic clamp (Rs = 0.61, p less than 0.01) and with the estimate from the intravenous glucose tolerance test (Rs = 0.64, p less than 0.05). The low precision of the estimates from the model (coefficients of variation: 31% for insulin resistance and 32% for beta-cell deficit) limits its use, but the correlation of the model's estimates with patient data accords with the hypothesis that basal glucose and insulin interactions are largely determined by a simple feed back loop.

What the sources say
- Partly supportedcites [3] McCarthy ST, Harris F, Turner RC (1977) Glucose control of basal insulin secretion in diabetes. Diabetologia 13: 93?97 sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Results and Discussion (page unavailable in our copy) show that changing plasma glucose affects basal insulin secretion. But they also report markedly impaired responses in diabetic subjects, including cases where insulin remained nearly constant despite a substantial glucose decrease. The paper therefore supports glucose as an influence, but not the unqualified claim that it largely determines fasting insulin concentration. (LLM, conf=0.84)

The authors state this as an assumption.
Normal-weight normal subjects aged <35 years have 100% beta-cell function and an insulin resistance of 1.
“Assuming that normal-weight normal subjects aged < 35 years have 100% r-cell function, and an insulin resistance of 1, the values for a patient can be assessed from the insulin and glucose concentrations by the formulae: r-cell”
The paper relies on this without support.
The plasma glucose:insulin response for normal subjects is equivalent to the C-peptide response and is insulin = 5 (glucose-3.5).
“The plasma glucose:insulin response for normal subjects, equivalent to the C-peptide response, is insulin = 5 (glucose-3.5).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-14, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-14 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
