Role of physical activity and fitness in the characterization and prognosis of the metabolically healthy obesity phenotype: a systematic review and meta-analysis
The aims of the present article are to systematically review and meta-analyze the existing
evidence on: 1) differences in physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB),
cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and muscular strength (MST) between metabolically healthy
obesity (MHO) and metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO); and 2) the prognosis of all-cause
mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality/morbidity in MHO individuals,
compared with the best scenario possible, ie, metabolically healthy normal-weight (MHNW) …
