objective: the aim of the present study is assessment of insulin resistance (ir) in obese women by tyg-index and compared with the homa-ir index. materials and methods: this cross-sectional study was performed on 61 obese women aged 18-45 years. weights, height, waist circumference (wc) were measured and body mass index (bmi) was calculated and recorded. a sample of fasting serum was collected ...

The glucose level linkages with breast cancer (BC) biomarkers are focused in the article adopting probabilistic modeling a real data set surveyed from 64 BC women and 52 normal along 10 interested study factors. It is derived that mean levels over for (P=0.02224) than normal. Mean inversely linked insulin (P< 0.00001), interaction effects of leptin adiponectin (leptin*adiponectin) (P=0.08834...

BACKGROUND There are few studies that investigated the correlation between insulin resistance (IR) and the coronary artery remodeling. The aim of the study is to investigate the association of IR measured by homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and coronary artery remodeling evaluated by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). METHODS A total of 298 consecutive patients who r...

Results For the IR assessed by the clamp, the HOMA-AD demonstrated a stronger coefficient of correlation (r=0.64) compared with the HOMA-IR (r=-0.56); p<0.0001. In the ROC analysis, compared with the HOMA-IR, the HOMA-AD showed higher values of the AUC for the identification of IR based on the clamp test (AUC: 0.844 vs. AUC: 0.804) and on the metabolic syndrome (AUC: 0.703 vs. AUC: 0.689), resp...

Methods Patients (pts) from TENDER were included if baseline and wk 6 fasting insulin were measured. Glucocorticoid tapering was not permitted until wk 6. Insulin sensitivity was quantified using the homeostatic model of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Pts were classified as having IR if their HOMA-IR was ≥2.2 U. Change in HOMA-IR after 6 wks was assessed using paired t-test. Baseline association...

OBJECTIVE Insulin resistance is a suspected causative factor in a wide variety of diseases. We aimed to determine whether insulin resistance, estimated by the homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), is associated with all-cause or disease-specific mortality among nondiabetic persons in the U.S. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We determined the association between HOMA-IR an...

[Purpose] This study aimed to examine the correlation of visfatin level to pancreatic endocrine hormone level, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index, and HOMA β-cell index in hydraulic resistance exercise. Furthermore, it investigated the relationship between visfatin level and other variables affected by exercise in overweight women. [Subjects and Methods] The exer...

Introduction. There is an association between HCV and insulin resistance (IR), which is currently assessed by HOMA-IR. There is evidence that HOMA-adiponectin (HOMA-AD) is more accurate, but its role in HCV patients is unknown. The purpose of this study was to evaluate IR in an HCV sample and controls, in order to compare the accuracy of HOMA-IR and HOMA-AD. Methods. Ninety-four HCV outpatients...
