Masafumi Matsuda, MD, PhDWhat is "Matsuda Index"?

Dr. Masafumi Matsuda and Prof. Ralph A DeFronzo first adovocate compsite index (ISI(comp))in 1999 on Diabetes Care, which was induced as index to evalute whole body physiolgical insulin sensitivity from the data obtained by oral glucose tolerance test as indicated above.


Question Frequently asked questions

1 How to caluculatte "Matsuda Index"?
Please click WEB calculator & EXCEL form or an icon of a computer on the left side of this page.

2 Why this formula had been introduced?
Glucose tolerance and insulin secretion had been well evaluated through oral glucose tolerance test and it shoule be possible to evaluate insulin sensitivity, because glucose tolerance is determined by insulin sencretiaon and insulin sensitivity.

3 Relation with other methods?
New Haven, CT (n=37) 5.43 (2.7-9.6, ±1.9)
San Antonio, TX (n=62) 4.34 (1.0-11.0, ±2.6)
Correlation with clamp: r ≧ 0.73


4 What is the normal value of "Matsuda Index"?
"Matsuda Index" had been designed to indicate values which are comparable to Rd (rate of disappearence of plasma glucose) measured by insulin clamp (1mU/kg per min insulin infusion, corrected at the insulin concentration of 100 microU/ml) with glucose tracer. 10000 in the fomular was defined for that purpose.
Threshold value to indicate insulin resistance was indicated on Diabetes (Stern SE et al: Diabetes 54:333, 2000). From the publication, subjects who don't have insulin resistance have values of "Matsuda Index" of 3 or higher.
Actually, 2.5 of "Matsuda Index" has been used to find subjects with insulin resistance in the USA (Kerman WN et al Stroke 34:1431, 2003).

5.We only have samples during OGTT at 0, 60, and 120 minutes, or at 0 and 120 minutes. Is there a way to calculate the composite index?
It is possible to calcualte it! If you have samples at 0, 60 and 120 minutes, you may use the same trapezoid method to estimate the area under the curve of glucose or insulin resposne. If you only have samples at 0 and 120 minutes, the value at 120 minutes may be used to estimate the average of response of glucose or insulin as follows;
ISI(comp) = 10,000 / sqrt (G0 x I0 x G120 x I120)
where 10,000 is a constant, G0 and G120 represents the plssma glucose concentrations at time 0 and 120min, I0 and I120 are the plasma insulin concentrations at time 0 and 120 min, sqrt is the mathematical function to calculate the square root. (Diabetes Care 33:e93,2010)
 Please keep in mind that If the way of calculation is different, you cannot compare values.
