In clinical practice, left ventricular hypertrophy is defined not by the left ventricular walls thickness, but by the left ventricular mass. The later is calculated according to the Devereux's formula, and is increased by insulin resistance/hyperinsulinemia. It is however unclear which of insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, or both is actually causative and what is their collective or individual influence on the components of Devereux's formula and parameters of left ventricular diastolic function. Thepresent study evaluated the associations ofthe Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMAIR) and fasting plasma insulinwith components of Devereux's formula and parameters of left ventricular diastolic function.

Hypertensive patients with Insulin Resistance (IR) have an increased cardiovascular risk compared with those without IR. Thus, data on the prevalence and determinants of IR in essential hypertension are crucial to understanding the impact of this health problem and defining intervention or prevention strategies. The present study aimed to assess IR prevalence and identify its determinants in a consecutive hospital series of Black Congolese with essential hypertension.
