Relationship of obesity to adverse events in myocardial infarction patients without primary percutaneous coronary intervention: results from the Occluded Artery Trial (OAT).

CONCLUSION: A U-shaped relationship was observed between BMI and all-cause mortality or non-cardiac death. Overweight patients have the lowest risk of all-cause mortality, which may be attributed to their having the lowest risk of non-cardiac death of the groups studied.
