1. About the measurements

This adult tool uses sex-specific HDL and waist criteria. Choose the sex used on the lab report.

2. Core metabolic numbers

Enter all five areas for a complete criteria count. The report can still calculate partial results.

What this does

One report, not one mystery score

The decoder organizes related measurements and performs transparent calculations. It does not create a proprietary wellness score. Each output has a different purpose, evidence base, and limitation.

Three or more criteria is a clinical pattern, not a self-diagnosis. Metabolic syndrome is diagnosed by a health professional. Medication use, ethnicity-specific waist thresholds, pregnancy, medical history, and laboratory methods can change interpretation.

Calculations

What can appear in the report

Depending on the values entered, the report can show metabolic syndrome criteria, waist-to-height ratio, estimated average glucose, HOMA1-IR, two published TyG conventions, non-HDL cholesterol, estimated remnant cholesterol, and lipid ratios.

HOMA1-IR and TyG are research-oriented surrogate measures. Neither has one universal diagnostic cutoff. The calculator labels formulas instead of assigning a green or red diagnosis.

Questions

Frequently asked

Does this diagnose metabolic syndrome?

No. It shows how entered values compare with commonly used adult criteria. Diagnosis belongs to a qualified health professional.

Do I need every number?

No. The report calculates what the available inputs support and lists missing measurements. A complete five-criteria count requires waist, blood pressure, fasting glucose, triglycerides, HDL, and sex.

Why is there no overall metabolic health score?

No validated clinical formula combines all of these outputs into one universal score. A made-up score would hide important differences between measurements.

Why does the TyG result show two values?

Published literature uses two different parenthesis conventions. The report labels both so you can compare a result only with a study using the same formula.

Why is HOMA1-IR not labeled normal or abnormal?

Oxford's Diabetes Trials Unit says HOMA results depend on the glucose and insulin assays, so there are no universal normal-versus-abnormal thresholds.
