    Glossary Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index

    method to assess body's insulin sensitivity using fasting levels

    The Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index (QUICKI) is a method used to assess how sensitive the body is to insulin. It is calculated using fasting blood glucose and insulin levels, providing a simple and reliable measure of insulin resistance, which is important for diagnosing and managing conditions like diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
