SPINA

SPINA (Structure Parameter Inference Approach) is a method for calculating constant structure parameters of endocrine feedback control systems from hormone levels obtained in vivo.

SPINA Carb is SPINA's second implementation. The equations deliver biomarkers for insulin sensitivity (SPINA-GR) and pancreatic beta cell function (SPINA-GBeta). Additionally, they provide the basis for the calculation of a static disposition index (SPINA-DI) to estimate the loop gain of the feedback control system.

The methodology has been validated in four cohorts. It could be demonstrated in several clinical studies that it has higher validity, reliability and diagnostic utility than alternative approaches.
