Abstract

IR may participate in the deterioration of CRF associated with LVH. Measures to improve insulin sensitivity should be considered for improving CRF and therefore the prognosis of insulin-resistant hypertensive patients. Targeting IR in hypertensive patients with LVH could improve prognosis.
