Homa-IR Insulin Resistance Index in Velicherla
Test • Include 1 Tests
The Homeostatic Model Assessment (HOMA) is a valuable method used to assess both beta cell function (%B) and insulin sensitivity (%S) based on fasting glucose and insulin concentrations. HOMA provides insights into the natural history of diabetes by tracking changes in insulin sensitivity and beta cell function. For individuals with a family history of type 2 diabetes, HOMA reveals reduced insulin sensitivity compared to control subjects. Moreover, it allows monitoring of beta cell function in patients using insulin secretagogues, offering valuable information on beta cell sensitivity over time. HOMA blood test is an essential tool for understanding and managing diabetes-related conditions and their progression.- The Homeostatic Model Assessment (HOMA) is a valuable method used to assess both beta cell function (%B) and insulin sensitivity (%S) based on fasting glucose and insulin concentrations.
