The incidence of insulin resistance based on indices calculated using the HOMA and Belfiore methods and its impact on the occurrence of metabolic complications in prepubertal children born small for gestational age

Abnormal IRIBelfiore is related to higher blood pressure and lower HDL-cholesterol concentration in this group.PMID:38031832 | PMC:PMC10679911 | DOI:10.5114/pedm.2023.130027
