We showed the application of the TG/HDL-C ratio to predict insulin resistance in obese children in Beijing with different diagnostic thresholds based on age (6-9-year-old group with TG/HDL-C ≥ 0.645; 10-13.5-year-old group with TG/HDL-C ≥ 0.725), which were lower compared with the diagnostic threshold for insulin resistance in children reported in other countries.
