Abstract: correlated with the minimal modelderived insulin sensitivity in nonobese Japanese type 2 diabetic patients.Furthermore, the correlation coefficient between MINMOD-SI and 1/(log glucose ϫ log insulin) (r ϭ 0.658) was similar to that between MINMOD-SI and the insulin sensitivity index (ISI, composite) (r ϭ 0.677) proposed by Matsuda and De-Fronzo (3,10).Whereas the ISI (composite) requires an oral glucose tolerance test, 1/(log glucose ϫ log insulin) can be calculated from the fasting state.Thus, 1/(log glucose ϫ log insulin) is considered to be a simple and useful tool for the estimation of insulin resistance in nonobese Japanese type 2 diabetic patients.
