    • Abstract:
      Aims: Insulin resistance in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with increased risk of chronic complications and death. The gold standard to quantify insulin sensitivity, a euglycaemic hyperinsulinaemic clamp, is not applicable to clinical practice. We have employed clamp studies to develop a panel of formulae to estimate insulin sensitivity in adults with T1D for use in clinical practice and trials.
      Methods: Clamps were conducted in 28 adults with T1D, who were also characterised with 38 clinical and research biomarkers. Exhaustive search analysis was used to derive equations correlating with clamp-quantified glucose disposal rate (GDR), GDR/plasma insulin (M/I) and log 10 M/I.
      Results: Measured insulin sensitivity correlated with BMI, WHR, HDL-C, adipokines and inflammation markers on univariate analysis. Exhaustive search analysis derived three formulae correlating with clamp-derived GDR and logM/I (p < 0.0001), accounting for ≈62% of their variability. A formula using gender, age, HDL-C, pulse pressure and WHR performed as well as those containing inflammation and adipokine measures.
      Conclusions: The performance of formulae using routinely available parameters with/without research biomarkers in clinical studies and trials, particularly related to future complications, relevant lifestyle interventions, insulin delivery modes and insulin sensitisers is merited.
