Answer # 1 #

Patients exhibit hyperinsulinemia with insulin resistance due to impaired glucose tolerance and early-stage diabetes. Hypertension occurs because of increased body fluid volume. After reaching mid-stage diabetes the vascular remodeling has progressed and peripheral vascular resistance also contributes to hypertension.
