“…Except for the Iran study, results from Chinese, Korean and Japanese studies were consistent. However, the sample size of the Iran study was small (n 591) and the study might not have enough statistical power to test the significant difference (12) . The Taiwan study reported each 1 kg/m 2 gain of BMI associated with an 18 % increase in risk of hypertension in 1547 men and women (age range 18-59 years) who were free of the metabolic syndrome components except for WC criteria (17) .…”

“…However, previous studies were mainly based on Asian populations and focused on metabolically healthy general obesity (MHGO), defined by BMI, but overlooked metabolically healthy abdominal obesity (MHAO), defined by waist circumference (WC), which is also closely associated with hypertension (10,11) . Studies from Iran and Switzerland showed no significant association of MHO and hypertension (12,13) . Another major issue is that studies used different MHO definitions when estimating the associated hypertension risk, so comparing existing data is difficult (9) .…”

“…Elevated fasting glucose (drug treatment of elevated glucose is an alternate indicator): ≥100 mg/dL. MHO was considered as absence of MetS and with obesity [23]. Metabolically healthy non-obese (MHNO) was diagnosed as those without MetS and obesity.…”

“…First, due to the lack of uniform criteria of metabolic healthy obesity, the rate of metabolic healthy obesity might have varied results which make the conclusion has bias. However, in the present study, we chose the relatively widely used de nition [23]. Second, the calculation of eGFR was based on a single assessment of blood pressure which might introduce bias.…”

“…Murcia is highlighted as the region in which obesity and overweight are most prevalent (Fernandez‐Ruiz, Paniagua‐Urbano & Sole‐Agusti, ; Aranceta‐Bartrina, Pérez‐Rodrigo, Alberdi‐Aresti, Ramos‐Carrera, & Lázaro‐Masedo, ). Overweight and obesity are related to a large amount of pathologies (Aleksandrova, Mozaffarian, & Pischon, ; Calderone et al, ; Latifi et al, ; Pavelka, ; Şahin, Naz, Varol, & Kömürcüoğlu, ), as well as to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (Scherbaum et al, ).…”
