Abstract

Insulin resistance (IR) in an HIV-infected cohort was evaluated and the results were compared with those of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey III. The Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index (QUICKI) was determined in 378 non-diabetic participants in the Nutrition for Healthy Living (NFHL) study and the association of the QUICKI was evaluated with demographic, socioeconomic, body composition, lipid, liver function, HIV-associated factors and injection drug use.
