ABSTRACT
Changes in insulin resistance (IR) cause stress-induced hyperglycemia after trauma, but the numerous factors involved in IR have not been delineated clearly. We hypothesized that a statistical model could help determine the relative contribution of different clinical co-variates to IR in critically injured patients.
