Impact of Insulin Resistance on Silent and Ongoing Myocardial Damage in Normal Subjects: The Takahata Study

Figure 2

Comparison of latent and ongoing myocardial damage between subjects with and without IR. Latent and ongoing myocardial damage was defined as serum levels of heart type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) above 4.3 ng/mL. In comparison to IR (−) subjects, those with IR showed a higher incidence of myocardial damage.
