Association of metabolically healthy obesity with risk of heart failure and left ventricular dysfunction among older adults.
Article in International journal of obesity (2005), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundObesity is major cause of heart failure (HF), but it is related with a better prognosis among the elderly. Therefore, we aimed to examine whether metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) in late life increases HF risk and is reflected in impaired left ventricular (LV) function.
methodsThe participants were grouped into four metabolic phenotypes based on obesity and metabolic status: metabolically healthy non-obesity (MHN), MHO, metabolically unhealthy non-obesity (MUN), metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO). Association of metabolic phenotypes with LV function was evaluated using multiple linear regression models. And association between metabolic phenotypes and risk of HF was assessed using multivariable logistic regression models. In addition, we validated the association of metabolic phenotypes and HF risk in a separate longitudinal cohort.
resultsIn the primary cohort of 6335 participant, there were 434 participants diagnosed with HF. Compared to MHN participants, the risk of HF was higher among older individuals with MUN (OR = 1.51 [95% CI: 1.14-1.99]) and MUO (OR = 2.01 [95% CI: 1.39-2.91]), but not older individuals with MHO (OR = 0.86 [95% CI: 0.30-2.43). Regarding to LV function, worse LV diastolic function was noted among MUN and MUO individuals rather than MHO individuals. Older adults with MHO were also not associated with risk of HF in the validation cohort.
conclusionAmong older individuals, the metabolic health status might modify the association of obesity with risk of HF and LV diastolic dysfunction. Worse LV diastolic function and higher risk of HF were just noted in individuals with MUO, but not in those with MHO.
