M Hamer, E Stamatakis - The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology …, 2012 - academic.oup.com
Context: Previous studies have identified an obese phenotype without the burden of
adiposity-associated cardiometabolic risk factors, although the health effects remain unclear.
Objective: We examined the association between metabolically healthy obesity and risk of
cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality. Design and Setting: This was an
observational study with prospective linkage to mortality records in community-dwelling
adults from the general population in Scotland and England. Participants: A total of 22,203 …

Metabolically healthy obesity and the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality in a Korean population: a prospective cohort study
Objectives This study aimed to examine the association between metabolically healthy
obesity and all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in a Korean population.
Design A prospective study. Setting This study used data from the Korean Genome and
Epidemiology Study. Participants A total of 140 137 participants were followed up over a
median period of 9.2 years. Participants were categorised into four groups according to
obesity (obese: body mass index≥ 25 kg/m2 or non-obese) and metabolic health …
