abstract = {Objective: To determine differences in resting heart rate variability (HRV)
and heart rate (HR) between young adults with normal-weight obesity (NWO)
and normal-weight lean (NWL).
Methods: A total of 65 normal-weight individuals (18–25 years old, 50 women,
body mass index 18.5 to 24.9 kg/m2) were included in this cross-sectional
study. Body fat percentage was determined using a whole-body dual energy
x-ray absorptiometry scanner. Resting HRV and HR were assessed with the
Polar RS800CX. Forty-one participants were classified as NWO and 24 NWL
using cutoff points for body fat percentage (33.3% for women and 23.1%
for men).
Results: There were no differences in HRV between NWO and NWL groups
(all p > .05). HR was higher in NWO (mean 70 beats per minute [bpm], standard
deviation [SD] 8) than in NWL adults (mean 65 bpm, SD 10), the adjusted
mean difference 5 bpm (95% CI, 0 to 10 bpm).
Conclusion: HR is a noninvasive biomarker and relatively cheap, fast, and
easy to measure that could detect “apparently healthy” young individuals with
an adverse cardiovascular disease risk profile despite presenting a normal body
weight.},
