INS and Insulin resistance: There are several techniques available for assessing insulin resistance, including the hyperinsulinemia-euglycemic glucose clamp, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), fasting insulin levels, glucose/insulin ratio, insulinogenic index (IGI), homeostatic model assessment, quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI), minimal model analysis of frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test, glucose insulin (GI) product, and fasting insulin resistance index (FIRI) [9].
