Insulin resistance is associated with a cluster of metabolic and hemodynamic abnormalities that lead to increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In this review the main pathophysiological mechanisms and metabolic consequences of insulin resistance are summarized. The correlation between insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease and the practical utility of the concept of metabolic syndrome as a diagnostic tool are also discussed.

Abstract
Insulin resistance is associated with a cluster of metabolic and hemodynamic abnormalities that lead to increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In this review the main pathophysiological mechanisms and metabolic consequences of insulin resistance are summarized. The correlation between insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease and the practical utility of the concept of metabolic syndrome as a diagnostic tool are also discussed.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
