A Cross-Sectional Observational Study: Effect of Insulin Resistance on Autonomic Functions of Obese Non Diabetic Healthy Males
Abstract
Obesity is recognized as a key contributor to insulin resistance and further lead to other non-communicable disease. This study is designed to test the relation of insulin resistance with deranged autonomic functions in obese males. The present study is cross-sectional observational study on 70 obese males. Obese males are divided into two groups non-insulin resistant (HOMA-IR 2.5). Anthropometric parameters, Cardiovascular parameters, HRV (heart rate variability) and BRS (baroreflex sensitivity) were measured in these 70 males. Insulin resistant subjects showed increased resting HR (rate (78 ± 6 BPM vs. 72 ± 5 BPM; p
