32A HOMA-IR threshold quoted without the assay it was derived from is not a threshold. This is the practical reason the index is better used to track change within an individual on one assay than to classify against a published cut-off.{{r|matthews1985}}32A HOMA-IR threshold quoted without the assay it was derived from is not a threshold.

+34== Behaviour under treatment ==
+35Fasting insulin falls with weight loss and with improved insulin sensitivity by any means, and the fall is a consequence of reduced demand rather than of reduced secretory capacity.{{r|drucker2018}}
+36
+37Under incretin therapy the picture is mixed: secretion is amplified while the drug is present, and sensitivity improves with weight loss, so fasting insulin reflects both influences. Attributing a change to either alone is unsound.{{r|wallace2004}}
