Non-linear association between metabolic score for insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus in normal-weight middle-aged and older Chinese adults: a multicenter retrospective cohort study

Among normal-weight middle-aged and older Chinese adults, METS-IR exhibits a positive, non-linear relationship with DM risk. Maintaining a lower METS-IR may help prevent the development of DM.
