“…Besides, MUHNO showed a higher cardiovascular risk than obese with a normal metabolic profile, reinforcing the importance of the metabolism beyond obesity. Several studies have observed an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and all‐cause mortality in MHO . However, other studies have shown that cardiovascular risk did not rise in obese phenotype with health status .…”

“…However, a recent large sample study with a short follow-up period (median of 5.4 years) revealed that MHO individuals had a higher risk of coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease and heart failure than MHNW individuals. 27 This suggests that obesity is a risk factor for CVD events, regardless of the presence or absence of metabolic syndrome; metabolic syndrome is no more valuable than BMI for identifying individuals at risk. This is similar to the current finding that a metabolically healthy profile did not completely protect people with obesity from incident CVD events.…”

“…The greater risk of CVD in obesity are well established, and thus, the discussion here is brief . Compared with normal‐weight individuals, even those with metabolically healthy obesity have been shown to have a higher chance of developing coronary heart disease (HR = 1.49) and heart failure (HR = 1.96) . Collectively, abdominal obesity may be a strong catalyst in promoting the early onset of CVD .…”
