Estimated insulin sensitivity in Type 1 diabetes adults using clinical and research biomarkers
Abstract
Aims Insulin resistance in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with increased risk of chronic complications and death. The gold standard to quantify insulin sensitivity, a euglycaemic hyperinsulinaemic clamp, is not applicable to clinical practice. We have employed clamp studies to develop a panel of formulae to estimate insulin sensitivity in adults with T1D for use in clinical practice and trials. Methods Clamps were conducted in 28 adults with T1D, who were also characterised with 38 clinical and research biomarkers. Exhaustive search analysis was used to derive equations correlating with clamp-quantified glucose disposal rate (GDR), GDR/plasma insulin (M/I) and log 10 M/I. Results Measured insulin sensitivity correlated with BMI, WHR, HDL-C, adipokines and inflammation markers on univariate analysis. Exhaustive search analysis derived three formulae correlating with clamp-derived GDR and logM/I (p Conclusions The performance of formulae using routinely available parameters with/without research biomarkers in clinical studies and trials, particularly related to future complications, relevant lifestyle interventions, insulin delivery modes and insulin sensitisers is merited.

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.
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.
