The present invention provides a new method for screening for insulin resistance that utilizes both myoinositol and chiroinositol as indicators. According to this method, levels of myoinositol and D-chiroinositol are measured. The value of the concentration of myoinositol is divided by that of D-chiroinositol to give a "myo/chiro ratio". The value of this ratio is compared with a value that is characteristic of insulin resistance. If the characteristic value is equalled or exceeded, insulin resistance is indicated.

La présente invention se rapporte à un nouveau procédé de détection de la résistance à l'insuline qui fait appel à la fois au myo-inositol et au chiro-inositol utilisés comme indicateurs. Selon ce procédé, on détermine les taux de myo-inositol et de D-chiro-inositol. La valeur de la concentration de myo-inositol est divisée par celle de D-chiro-inositol pour donner un "rapport myo/chiro". La valeur de ce rapport est comparée à une valeur qui est caractéristique de la résistance à l'insuline. Lorsque la valeur caractéristique est égalée ou dépassée, on obtient une indication de la résistance à l'insuline.
