Metabolic obesity phenotypic stability, dynamic transformation and risk of hypertension: a 10-year prospective cohort study in southwest China.
Article in International journal of obesity (2005), 2026. 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
introductionHypertension is a major public health concern. Although metabolic obesity phenotypes are key risk factors for cardiovascular disease, the association between their dynamic changes and hypertension incidence remains unclear.
methodsBased on the Guizhou Population Health Cohort Study (GPHCS), after excluding participants with hypertension at baseline or incomplete data, a total of 3399 subjects were included in the final analysis. Participants were classified into four phenotypes based on body mass index (BMI) and metabolic status: metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW), metabolically unhealthy normal weight (MUNW), metabolically healthy obesity (MHO), and metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO). Cox proportional hazards models were applied to assess the associations between 16 phenotype transition patterns and the risk of hypertension, with robustness confirmed through multiple sensitivity analyses.
resultsOver a median follow-up of 6.42 years, 826 incident cases of hypertension were identified. After multivariable adjustment, compared with MHNW, baseline MHO (HR = 1.26, 95% CI: 1.02-1.55) and MUO (HR = 1.50, 95% CI: 1.22-1.82) were positively associated with hypertension risk, whereas MUNW was not (HR = 1.10, 95% CI: 0.91-1.33). Dynamic analysis showed that 48.75% of participants underwent phenotypic transitions during follow-up. The two most prominent changes were that 37.38% of individuals with MUNW transitioned to MHNW and 31.21% of those with MHO transitioned to MUO. Transitions from any baseline phenotype to MHNW were not associated with a statistically significant increase in hypertension risk (all P > 0.05). All other phenotypic transitions were positively associated. Even participants who remained MHO experienced increased hypertension risk (HR = 2.30, 95% CI: 1.45-3.64).
conclusionWithin the study population, MHO is an unstable state athat tended to progress to MUO, which carries the highest risk of hypertension. In contrast, the MUNW phenotype exhibits high reversibility and can revert to the MHNW phenotype. Future our studies require confirm whether early lifestyle interventions targeting metabolic health can effectively reduce the risk of hypertension.
