Message definition (Insulin resistance)
===Alternatives===
Given the complicated nature of the "clamp" technique (and the potential dangers of [[hypoglycemia]] in some patients), alternatives have been sought to simplify the measurement of insulin resistance. The first was the [[homeostatic model assessment|Homeostatic Model Assessment]] (HOMA), and more recent methods include the [[Quantitative insulin sensitivity check index]] (QUICKI) and [[SPINA-GR]], a measure for insulin sensitivity. All of these calculated markers employ [[fasting]] [[insulin]] and [[glucose]] levels to calculate insulin resistance, and all correlate reasonably with the results of clamping studies.
