Obesidade e eventos cardiovasculares/ Obesity and cardio-vascular events.
Revisão sistemática de A Romero-Corral e col. na The Lancet sobre indíce de massa corporal, mortalidade e risco de eventos cardiovasculares em doentes com doença coronária.
Systematic review by A Romero-Corral et al. in The Lancet on body mass index, mortality and cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease.
"...overweight (BMI 25-29.9) had the lowest risk for total mortality ... and cardiovascular mortality ... compared with those for people with a normal BMI"
"The better outcomes for cardiovascular and total mortality seen in the overweight and mildly obese groups could not be explained by adjustment for confounding factors."
