The Insulin Resistant Gene has sounded an alarm of concern not only here in the United States but many other countries as well. The concern for the Insulin Resistant Gene and its’ ability to create an alarming amount of newly diagnosed juveniles’ with obesity and diabetes, along with other health factors has many health providers concerned with co-morbidities in children.
A review of literature on, “Insulin resistance in type 2 diabetic youth, disclosed cardio-metabolic issues leading to co-morbidities and or mortalities across the lifespan of juveniles.” The findings in measurements were insulin resistance and insulin secretion, which identified a progressive state from normalcy in glycemic index to Type II Diabetes Mellitus. Furthermore, …show more content…
The primary belief was an indicator that “the metabolic syndrome varies with ethnicity in the U.S.”(108-113). A minimal model was used to track insulin sensitivity, with obese juveniles whose family history was indicative of Type II Diabetes.
Primary indicators of choice were abdominal fat, HDL, Cholesterol, impaired glucose, and other health risk factors. The results were favorable of overweight Hispanic juveniles being at a higher risk of Type II Diabetes due to the Insulin Resistance Gene.
The study for the Metabolic Syndrome of the Insulin Resistance Gene yielded positive or favorable results indicating that childhood obesity and diabetes is relative to the Insulin Resistant Gene.

The Correlational Study could be utilized throughout school districts to test children ages 5, 7, and 9 totaling 15 of each age group, for fasting glucose levels at the beginning and end or the school year. A questionnaire can be sent out to the parents of the children for request of participants. If agreed to, the children of the parents responding will be tested according to body mass index, and pre-disposing factors such as family history, symptoms, income and home environment. Children already diagnosed with diabetes will be excluded from the
