Hello everybody,
In my research ,I used the Homeostastic Model Assessment (HOMA) to calculate the Insulin Sensitivity/Resistance and beta cell function.And I used the original equation in calculation , but when I used the computer model (HOMA calculator) I got different results !
for example:
for glucose= 75 mg/dl and Insulin= 4.24 microIU/L
 
BY ORIGINAL equation , HOMA β =16.85   and HOMA IR =0.79
 
But by HOMA calculator, HOMA β =92.4   and HOMA IR =0.53
 
 If anyone have an explanation for this ,or used the HOMA  in his/her research I will be grateful
 
 
Best regards

That stuff frightens me to try to work with, and I wouldn't consider myself to be HOMAphobic
