Detailed Description

The Metabolic Score for Insulin Resistance (METS-IR) is a metabolic index developed with the aim to quantify peripheral insulin sensitivity in humans; it was first described under the name METS-IR by Bello-Chavolla et al in 2018. It was developed by the Metabolic Research Disease Unit at the Institute National de Ciencias Médicas Salvador Zubirán and validated against the euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp and the frequently-sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test in Mexican population.It is a non-insulin-based alternative to insulin-based methods to quantify peripheral insulin sensitivity and an alternative to the Homeostatic Model Assessment (HOMA-IR) and the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI).

Very limited research correlate between visceral obesity and microvascular complications in type 2 diabetic patients and how can the metabolic score for insulin resistance predict visceral obesity and microvascular complications in type2 diabetic patients. In this study the investigators will search for these correlations.

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients of T2DM, either newly diagnosed or previously diagnosed and on treatment with antidiabetic oral hypoglycemic agents or insulin and attending diabetes OPD or admitted to the Medicine Department, were taken as cases. Age- and gender-matched nondiabetic people admitted to the Medicine Department were taken as control subjects. Both these groups will be interviewed, examined, investigated, and included in the study.
