Abdominal obesity and respiratory function in men and women in the EPIC-Norfolk Study, United Kingdom.

Abdominal obesity and respiratory function in men and women in the EPIC-Norfolk Study, United Kingdom.

Poor respiratory function and obesity are associated with all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality. Obese persons may also have impaired lung function, but the mechanism is unclear. The authors investigated the relation between abdominal pattern of obesity and respiratory function in the Europ...
