Association between metabolic health indicators and cardiorespiratory fitness in urban young and middle-aged population: a retrospective cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is an established risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Compared with traditional clinical risk factors for CVD, CRF can better predict health status and possible adverse events. However, few studies have reported the association between multiple metabolic health indicators and CRF as an indicator of CVD risk. Therefore, this study aims to further understand the association between metabolic health indicators and CRF and to provide a theoretical basis for improving the early prevention strategies of CVD in the urban young and middle-aged population.

Methods

A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 889 young and middle-aged urban people who underwent health examinations in Beijing Xiaotangshan Hospital from Jan
