The gold standard for measuring insulin sensitivity (IS) is the hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp, a time, costly, and labor-intensive research tool. A low insulin sensitivity is associated with a complication-risk in type 1 diabetes. Various formulae using clinical data have been developed and correlated with measured IS in type 1 diabetes. We consolidated multiple formulae into an online calculator (bit.ly/estimated-GDR), enabling comparison of IS and its probability of IS 6.50 mg/kg/min (high), as measured in a validation set of clamps in 104 adults with type 1 diabetes. Insulin sensitivity calculations using different formulae varied significantly, with correlations (R
