Background and Aims: Currently, there is a lack of real‑time metric with high sensitivity and specificity to diagnose sepsis. Insulin sensitivity (SI) may be determined in real‑time using mathematical glucose‑insulin models; however, its effectiveness as a diagnostic test of sepsis is unknown. Our a...
