Metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) in the Malmö diet cancer study – Epidemiology and prospective risks
ConclusionCompared to MUO individuals, MHO individuals presented with a higher level of physical activity, a more favorable lipid- and glucose profile and a lower prospective risk of total mortality and CV morbidity during 20-years follow-up. Notably, no significant differences could be seen in mortality and CV morbidity risks when comparing MHO subjects to non-obese controls.
