Optimal cutoff values of SPISE to predict Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance in male and female post-pubertal adolescents.
| Cutoff | Sensitivity (%) | Specificity (%) | Correctly classified (%) | LR + | AUC | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Males (n = 356) | ||||||
| Metabolic syndrome | 5.0 | 97.3 | 81.6 | 82.6 | 5.2 | 0.97 |
| Insulin resistance | 5.9 | 70.5 | 83.6 | 80.9 | 4.2 | 0.80 |
| Females (n = 322) | ||||||
| Metabolic syndrome | 6.0 | 89.7 | 74.4 | 76.0 | 3.5 | 0.90 |
| Insulin resistance | 6.4 | 61.4 | 75.1 | 72.7 | 2.5 | 0.75 |
LR: Likelihood Ratio. AUC: Area under curve. MetS diagnosed with the AHANHLBI/IDF joint standard for people 16y and older. Insulin resistance diagnosed with HOMA-IR values ≥ 2.6
