Bello-Chavolla OY et al. METS-IR, a novel score to evaluate insulin sensitivity, is predictive of visceral adiposity and incident type 2 diabetes. Eur J Endocrinol. PMID: 29535168. METS-IR = ln(2×fasting glucose + triglycerides) × BMI / ln(HDL-C), with glucose, triglycerides, and HDL in mg/dL. Higher values tracked with lower insulin sensitivity in the derivation cohort. (2018)
