HOMA-IR, from fasting glucose and insulin

Enter fasting glucose and fasting insulin from your lab report. The model, the constant it uses and the paper it comes from are all shown.

With Fasting glucose 90 mg/dL, Fasting insulin 16 µIU/mL: HOMA-IR 3.55; Glucose 5 mmol/L; Insulin 16 µIU/mL.

HOMA-IR is defined on FASTING values. Insulin after a meal can be several times the fasting figure, so a non-fasting draw put through this model is not the quantity the model describes.

No threshold is shown: published cut-offs for HOMA-IR differ by population and by insulin assay, so there is no single number this page could honestly compare yours against.
