BACKGROUND: Many Native American tribes use acanthosis nigricans to screen for type 2 diabetes risk. We hypothesized that acanthosis nigricans misses many children at risk for type 2 diabetes.
METHODS: We evaluated 5- to 18-year-old Native American children and youth to assess the sensitivity and specificity of acanthosis nigricans as a marker for insulin resistance.
RESULTS: In a cohort of 161 youth (72 males/89 females), mean age was 10.7 years + 3.9. Mean body mass index (BMI) percentile was 76.8 +/- 23.3, and 54% had a BMI at or above the 85th percentile. Acanthosis nigricans was present in 21.7% of the participants and was more common in 12-to 18-year-olds than in 5 to 11-year-olds (p = .02). Of those with acanthosis nigricans, 82.4% had insulin resistance (homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance >4), but only 48.3% of those with insulin resistance had acanthosis nigricans. In contrast, BMI at or above the 85th percentile had a high sensitivity (74%) for insulin resistance, even though its specificity was lower (58%).
CONCLUSIONS: The presence of acanthosis nigricans alone was a specific, but not a sensitive, screening tool for identifying youth with insulin resistance. BMI at or above the 85th percentile was a more sensitive screening tool than acanthosis nigricans alone, or acanthosis nigricans and BMI together for identifying children and youth with IR who are at increased risk for type 2 diabetes.
