Insulin resistance is associated with higher blood pressure in adults.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
5 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that insulin resistance is associated with higher blood pressure in adults?

Unclear. Several small cross-sectional studies in specific subgroups (obese Pakistani adults, healthy men, women, children and adolescents) report that insulin resistance or impaired insulin sensitivity is associated with higher systolic blood pressure, but none covers the general adult population the claim asserts.
