Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the distribution of homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) values and define its cutoff associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS) in the participants of the Study of Cardiovascular Risk in Adolescents (Estudo de Risco Cardiovascular em Adolescentes). Methods: MetS was defined according to the International Diabetes Federation criteria. HOMA-IR values were calculated and tabulated by corresponding percentiles for age and sex. Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed to identify the optimal cutoff values of HOMA-IR associated with MetS in the total population and by sex. Results: We evaluated 37 815 adolescents ages 12 to 17 y. The highest HOMA-IR medians were found among girls and boys ages 12 and 14 y, respectively. Thereafter, values tended to decrease with age. The optimal cutoff values of the HOMA-IR associated with MetS in the total population, in female adolescents, and in male adolescents were 2.80, 232, and 2.87, respectively. Insulin resistance was prevalent in 19.1% (95% confidence interval, 17.7-20.7) of the total population, and the prevalence was higher among girls and overweight Brazilian adolescents. Conclusions: These findings may serve as new reference points for detecting insulin resistance in Brazilian adolescents. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
