Overview

Systematic review demonstrates dynapenic obesity increases cardiovascular events and mortality risk, suggesting it must be considered in risk assessment.

Key Points

  • This research aims to analyze the impact of dynapenic obesity on cardiovascular outcomes and mortality.
  • Conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis
  • Included observational cohort studies reporting adjusted effect sizes
  • Analyzed data on cardiovascular events and mortality related to dynapenic obesity
  • Calculated pooled odds ratios and confidence intervals using random-effects meta-analysis
  • Five studies with over 45,000 participants showed a significant association between dynapenic obesity and cardiovascular events (pooled OR: 1.42)
  • A significant association with cardiovascular mortality (pooled OR: 1.52) was also found
  • Higher incident heart disease risk was noted in women compared to men
  • Dynapenic obesity was identified as a stronger cardiometabolic risk marker than obesity alone
