SPISE INDEX (Single point insulin sensitivity estimator): indicator of insulin resistance in children and adolescents with overweight and obesity
In children and adolescents with obesity the SPISE index can be proposed as an alternative to OGTT and other insulin-based methods for evaluating insulin resistance. Its advantage lies in using readily available and inexpensive laboratory tests, making it suitable for large-scale studies and follow-up monitoring across diverse populations.
