Death risk of metabolic obesity phenotypes stratified by metabolic syndrome and obesity categories. MH metabolically healthy, MU metabolically unhealthy, NO non-obesity, O obesity, MetS metabolic syndrome. HRs were calculated based on weighted cox regression model after adjusting for age, gender, race, smoking status, drinking habit, socioeconomic status and education level. p for interaction was calculated based on Wald test. All-cause mortality, p for interaction = 0.025; Heart disease mortality, p for interaction = 0.644; Hypertension mortality, p for interaction = 0.984; Diabetes mortality, p for interaction = 0.601; Cancer mortality, p for interaction = 0.257. *Statistically significant.
