Comparing the effectiveness of different indicators of insulin resistance in predicting diabetes among adults with sarcopenia from the NHANES (1999-2018).

ABSTRACT: The aim of this research is to investigate the correlation between indicators of various types of insulin resistance and the likelihood of developing diabetes in populations exhibiting sarcopenia. This cross-sectional study includes adults who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999 to 2018. Insulin sensitivity indicators primarily include the IR metabolic score (METS-IR), triglyceride glucose index (TyG), triglyceride glucose index body mass index (TyG-BMI), triglyceride glucose index waist circumference (TyG-WC), and triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio for assessing insulin sensitivity. Muscle mass measurements are obtained using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Employing various statistical techniques such as multiple logist
