Implication

WC may flag ANS dysfunction risk in obese adults without CV factors; leaves open causal role and intervention effects.

Structured PICO

Population

114 obese individuals without any cardiovascular risk factors

Intervention

Central adiposity parameters (waist circumference, epicardial fat thickness)

Outcome

Autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction measured by heart rate recovery (HRR) at 1-5 min, R-R interval variation at rest and during hyperventilation, and sympathetic skin responsesurrogate

Waist circumference and age are associated with autonomic nervous system dysfunction, as measured by delayed heart rate recovery, in obese individuals without other cardiovascular risk factors.
