Impact of metabolically healthy obesity on post percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction: A nationwide propensity matched analysis Open
No statistically significant association was found between obesity and post-PCI outcomes in metabolically healthy patients with AMI. Larger studies are needed to explore the controversial "obesity paradox" in cardiovascular diseases.
