Key result
Myocardial insulin resistance does not always parallel skeletal muscle and whole body insulin resistance, suggesting the myocardium possesses distinct mechanisms to resist insulin resistance.
The myocardium possesses unique mechanisms to manage insulin resistance, meaning myocardial insulin resistance does not always parallel skeletal muscle or whole-body insulin resistance.
Systemic measures may not capture myocardial insulin resistance; leaves open tissue-specific targets in cardiometabolic disease.

Ikuo Yokoyama (2013) conducted a review in Myocardial insulin resistance. Myocardial insulin resistance vs. Skeletal muscle and whole body insulin resistance was evaluated on Parallelism between myocardial and skeletal muscle/whole body insulin resistance. Myocardial insulin resistance does not always parallel skeletal muscle and whole body insulin resistance, suggesting the myocardium possesses distinct mechanisms to resist insulin resistance.
