Research Article: SPISE INDEX (Single point insulin sensitivity estimator): indicator of insulin resistance in children and adolescents with overweight and obesity
Abstract:
Background: Insulin resistance in children and adolescents with obesity is linked to increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. The SPISE index, based on values of fasting triglycerides (mg/dL), HDL cholesterol (mg/dL), and BMI (kg/m2), shows promise in predicting insulin resistance in children.
