description The study analyzed the correlation between body mass index (BMI) values and the occurrence of acute coronary events (ACE) on a sample of 865 subjects. In order to evaluate the ACE risk, the BMI was followed, and according to its values, the classification of subjects into groups of normoponderales, overweight and obese. The prevalence of ACE was increasing in relation to the increase in BMI, being maximum in obese subjects (10%), and 7.52% in the overweight ones.
