Aim of this study was to formulate an index for glucose effectiveness (Sg), SgIo, based on 3-point (0, 30 and 120 min) 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The equation for SgI O was developed in the Chikuma cohort ( n  = 502). Firstly, post-loading plasma glucose without insulin action and Sg (...
