Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) correlates strongly with serum adiponectin (ADPN), insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), and IGF-I binding protein (IGFBP-1). HOMA-IR values from obese and obese/gestational diabetes mellitus groups had (A) a significant inverse relationship between adiponectin (p<0.001), (B) a strong positive correlation with IGF-1 (p<0.0001), and (C) a significant inverse relationship between IGFBP-1 (p<0.042), Pearson.
