ABSTRACT: Background: There are higher numbers of Asian individuals with metabolically obese, normal weight (MONW) who are susceptible to diabetes than other ethnic groups. The homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) has been used for years to evaluate IR; however, the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has been highlighted as a reliable and cost-effective insulin resistance indicator.
