Evaluation of fasting plasma insulin and proxy measurements to assess insulin sensitivity in horses

Abstract Background Proxies are mathematical calculations based on fasting glucose and/or insulin concentrations developed to allow prediction of insulin sensitivity (IS) and β-cell response. These proxies have not been evaluated in horses with insulin dysregulation. The first objective of this stud...
