Abstract excerpt
Insulin resistance is a major indicator of cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension. The Metabolic Score for Insulin Resistance (METS-IR) offers a simplified and cost-effective way to evaluate insulin resistance. This study aimed to identify genetic variants associated with the prevalence of hypertension stratified by METS-IR score levels. Data from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES) were...
