HOMA-IR (Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance) uses fasting glucose and fasting insulin to estimate insulin resistance. Higher values suggest lower insulin sensitivity and are often used in metabolic risk evaluation.
Formula: HOMA-IR = (Fasting Insulin [uIU/mL] x Fasting Glucose [mg/dL]) / 405.

Higher HOMA-IR values generally reflect greater insulin resistance and lower metabolic insulin sensitivity.
Use this tool in metabolic risk assessment, prediabetes evaluation, and endocrine follow-up where fasting insulin is available.
HOMA-IR depends on fasting conditions and assay variability. Thresholds differ across populations and labs, so results should be interpreted within local reference context.
