Insulin measurements are not advised for cardiometabolic risk screening in large groups. Here we assessed the accuracy of the single-point insulin sensitivity estimator (SPISE) to diagnose cardiometabolic risk in Chilean adolescents. In 678 post-pubertal adolescents (52% males, M(SD) age = 16.8 (0.2) years), height, weight, waist circumference, blood lipids, glucose, insulin, and blood pressure were measured. BMI, HOMA-IR, and SPISE were estimated; HOMA-IR values ≥ 2.6 were considered insulin resistance (IR). Metabolic syndrome (MetS) was defined with the joint IDF/AHA/NHBLI standard. Using receiver operating characteristic curves, we obtained optimal SPISE cutpoints for IR and MetS diagnosis. The prevalence of MetS and IR was 8.2% and 17.1%, respectively. In males, the optimal cutoff for MetS diagnosis was 5.0 (sensitivity: 97%; specificity: 82%), and the optimal cutoff for IR diagnosis was 5.9 (sensitivity: 71%; specificity: 83%). In females, a SPISE of 6.0 had the highest sensitivity (90%) and specificity (74%) for MetS diagnosis. A SPISE of 6.4 was the optimal cutoff for IR diagnosis; however, sensitivity and specificity were 61% and 75%. In males and female post-pubertal adolescents, SPISE had a very good and good diagnostic performance, respectively, in predicting MetS. It was an accurate diagnostic tool for IR prediction in males, but not necessarily in females.
