Description
Jiamin Li, Qin Zhou, Zhen Liu, and Hequn Zou connect insulin resistance to kidney disease in people who do not have diabetes, in a 2024 study. The survey covered 2,142 community adults in southern China. Insulin resistance was scored by a standard formula. That formula combines fasting insulin and glucose readings.
Participants in the top quarter of resistance had nearly four times the kidney disease odds of those in the bottom quarter. The gap survived adjustment for age, smoking, drinking, activity, blood pressure, blood fats, and weight. The third quarter also showed doubled odds. As a screening marker, the resistance score separated kidney patients from healthy people moderately well, with a best cut-off around 2.5. The authors suggest that lowering insulin resistance could help prevent kidney damage before diabetes ever appears.
