Assessing Insulin Sensitivity in People with Type 1 Diabetes Without Euglycemic-Hyperinsulinemic Clamps

Biomarkers in Diabetes

Abstract

The euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp is the “gold standard” in assessing insulin sensitivity. Due to high demands on the subject, need for experienced and skilled operators, and high costs, it remains predominantly a research tool. Multiple mathematical formulae have been developed to estimate insulin sensitivity using various biomarkers. Most variables used reflect body habitus, blood pressure, HbA1c, and lipids. Although most show relatively good correlation with insulin sensitivity measures from the euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp series they are derived from, relatively few are validated using independent clamp datasets. Associations with other factors, which are usually mechanistically related to insulin resistance, such as inflammation and adiposity (reflected by adipokine levels) are also of interest, as these as well as clinical markers may suggest therapeutic targets.
