- Abstract
Background: We aimed at evaluating the effect of the z-score of the log-transformed A Body Shape Index (LBSIZ) on cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes according to obesity phenotype. Methods: Data were collected from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted from 2007 to 2010. Obesity was defined as a body mass index above 25 kg/m2 and metabolic abnormality was defined as the presence of two or more metabolic risk factors of the Adult Treatment Panel III definition. The participants were classified by obesity and metabolic healthy status: metabolically healthy non-obese (MHNO), metabolically healthy obese (MHO), metabolically unhealthy non-obese (MUNO), and metabolically unhealthy obese (MUO). Each group was further classified into three groups based on the tertile of LBSIZ. A multivariate logistic regression analysis with adjustment for age, sex, smoking status, income, education level, physical activities, alcohol, and energy intake was conducted to evaluate the odds ratio (OR) for CVD events. Results: In the multivariate logistic regression model, MHO participants who are within the third tertile of LBSIZ had a significantly higher OR for CVD events, whereas those who are within the first and second tertile of LBSIZ were not at high risk of developing CVDs compared to MHNO participants who are within the first tertile of LBSIZ. In addition, a similar increase in the OR was observed in MUNO or MUO participants. Conclusion: LBSIZ had the lowest risk for CVDs in the first tertile of LBSIZ and a linear relationship with all its tertiles in MHO, MUNO, and MUO participants.
