Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The term 'metabolically healthy obese (MHO)' is distinguished using body mass index (BMI), yet BMI is a poor index of adiposity. Some epidemiological data suggest that MHO carries a lower risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) or mortality than being normal weight yet metabolically unhealthy. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to undertake a detailed phenotyping of individuals with MHO by using imaging techniques to...
