Abstract

We compared fasting blood glucose, insulin, and hemoglobin A1c using baseline data collected from 460 young adults ages 18-35 enrolled in an ongoing randomized controlled clinical weight-loss trial. The goal was to determine differences within the subject pool for insulin insensitivity and pre-diabetes based on demographics. We further modeled both pancreatic beta cell function and insulin sensitivity using the homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR).

Fasting Insulin, Glucose, and HbA1c Among Young Adults with Overweight and Obesity
