Obesity, Insulin Resistance, and the Metabolic Syndrome: Determinants of Endothelial Dysfunction in Whites and Blacks -- Lteif et al. 112 (1): 32 -- Circulation
Conclusions— These findings suggest that insulin resistance and systolic blood pressure are the principal determinants of endothelial dysfunction in the MS and that there are ethnic differences in the relative importance of these factors. These differences may imply different benefits from treatments targeting blood pressure or insulin resistance in different ethnic groups.
