About this trial

The study aims to investigate the relationship between fasting insulin and Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) across various demographic factors, including age, sex, race/ethnicity, BMI, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) diagnosis. By analyzing these variables, the study seeks to identify potential variations in insulin levels, which could provide valuable insights into the impact of different factors on metabolic health and the development of insulin-related conditions.

Trial population

The study aims to investigate the levels of Fasting Insulin and HOMA-IR (Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance) among individuals with varying characteristics, including age, sex, race/ethnicity, BMI (Body Mass Index), and PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) diagnosis. The study population consists of a diverse group of participants referred by healthcare providers and online platforms.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Assessment of Fasting Insulin levels and HOMA-IR (Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance) scores among different groups stratified by age, sex, race/ethnicity, BMI, and PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) diagnosis.

The primary objective is to investigate the association between these measures and the specified demographic and clinical factors, providing insights into the variations and potential disparities in insulin resistance across different subgroups.

Time frame
3 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Identify any significant interactions or relationships between the primary outcomes (Fasting Insulin and HOMA-IR) and the demographic and clinical factors, including age, sex, race/ethnicity, BMI, and PCOS diagnosis.

The secondary outcome measure will provide a comprehensive understanding of how various factors may influence insulin resistance and contribute to its heterogeneity in different populations.
