Role of skeletal muscle perfusion and insulin resistance in the effect of dietary sodium on heart function in overweight

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2021
Aims Weight excess and insulin resistance predispose to heart failure. High sodium consumption may contribute to the development of cardiac impairment in insulin‐resistant individuals by promoting inadequate skeletal muscle microvascular perfusion ...
