Metabolically Healthy Obesity: Correlations Between BMI and Metabolic Syndrome Biomarkers

Completed

Conditions studied: Obesity

In brief

The study team's research fills the gap in the obesity literature where BMI with a cut point of 35 is frequently used to show the association between BMI and metabolic syndrome biomarkers. The study team was unable to locate any papers that showed the association between metabolic syndrome biomarkers and BMI from 35 to 69.9, and especially graphically as this clinical team has presented.
