Why the study?

It was unclear at what age obesity-related autonomic dysfunction becomes significant and whether heart rate variability decreases differently according to metabolic profile.

Does age affect heart rate variability differently in metabolically healthy versus metabolically unhealthy obese individuals?

Population

99 adults

Comparison

Metabolically healthy obese vs metabolically unhealthy obese

Discussion

Member takes

Implication

May warrant metabolic stratification when assessing age-related HRV decline in obesity; leaves open clinical utility pending prospective validation.

Does age affect heart rate variability differently in metabolically healthy versus metabolically unhealthy obese individuals?

Population

99 obese adults (BMI ≥30 kg/m2), mean age 41.28, 36 men and 63 women, from Serbia. Divided into metabolically healthy obese (MHO) and metabolically unhealthy obese (MUO) based on Wildman's criteria.

Outcome

Age-related changes in heart rate variability (HRV) markers (SDNN, RMSSD, pNN50, LF, HF, LF/HF, TP) measured via 5-minute digital electrocardiographysurrogate
