متن کاملCan we identify metabolically healthy but obese individuals (MHO)?
OBJECTIVES A unique subset of obese individuals termed, Metabolically Healthy but Obese (MHO), has been described in the literature. However, there is no agreed upon method to identify MHO individuals for research protocols or in clinical practice. Therefore, we examined a large cohort of obese older women to attempt to develop a first set of clinical markers that may identify MHO individuals. ...
متن کاملMetabolically obese but normal weight (MONW) and metabolically healthy but obese (MHO) phenotypes in Koreans: characteristics and health behaviors.
The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of 'metabolically obese, but normal-weight' (MONW) and 'metabolically healthy, but obese' (MHO) phenotypes in Korean adults and identify the characteristics and health behaviors related to both phenotypes. Of the 5267 participants (2227 men, 3040 women) from the 3rd Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, the MONW phenoty...
