This study used a large population to examine the association between metabolic health (by three definitions of metabolic health status) and the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Congratulations to your hard work.

I have a question about the BMI cut-off values in the study.

Since the cut-offs of Chinese adults are 24 and 28 kg/m 2 for overweight and obesity, I'm wondering if using the Chinese cut-off, weather the results would be changed or not.
