Some long-term studies show that weight loss in overweight and obesity is associated with increased mortality, and many cardiovascular studies show better prognosis with higher BMI, leading to the suggestion that purposeful weight loss may not be beneficial and may even be detrimental in patients with cardiovascular diseases.
“Considering that some long-term studies have shown that weight loss in overweight and obesity is associated with increased mortality coupled with many CV studies showing a better prognosis with a higher BMI, it has been suggested that purposeful weight loss may not be beneficial and may even be detrimental in patients with CV diseases (31,66 -68).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
