Determinants of the transition from a cardiometabolic normal to abnormal overweight/obese phenotype in a Spanish population.

Eur J Nutr. 2014 Sep;53(6):1345-53, PMID: 24322835

There is limited prospective evidence at population scale of the impacts of lifestyle and surrogate measures of general and abdominal adiposity on the transition of a metabolically healthy (absence of a metabolic disorder) overweight/obese (MHOO) phenotype to a metabolically abnormal overweight/obese (MAOO) phenotype. Therefore, we determined the relationship between 10-year body mass index (BMI), waist circumferences (WC), waist to height ratio (WHtR), and lifestyle changes and the transition of the MHOO phenotype.
