Chronic heart failure (CHF) remains a major public health
problem worldwide leading to growth of cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and
mortality. During the past decades prevalence and incidence of CHF has
increased. Despite contemporary understanding of the underlying disease
mechanisms of CHF there is knowledge gap with respect to nature evolution CHF
under influence of co-existing CV risk factors. Indeed, the results of few
population-based and epidemiological investigations have shown that multiple
actual CV risk factors and various metabolic comorbidities presented in CHF
patients may affect cardiac failure development. There is still debate in
the scientific community about whether identification of numerous of CV risk
factors / the metabolic co-morbidities improves ability to predict CHF
development beyond use of single risk factor.

Recent clinical investigations have revealed insulin resistance
(IR) is as a distinct cause of cardiac dysfunction and CHF in diabetic and
non-diabetic patients. IR mediates excessive or inadequate proliferation
of the extracellular matrix accelerates apoptosis via increased oxidative
stress, neurohumoral and inflammatory activation that effect cardiac remodeling
and endothelial function. Despite IR is considered a main component of
metabolic syndrome (MetS) and type two diabetes mellitus (T2DM), a lot of
individuals with CHF may present IR prior to other dysmetabolic conditions
including MetS / T2DM. However, IR is persisted component of CV risk
factors and it role in CHF development in the patients without history of T2DM
is still unclear.
