Context: Obesity and metabolic syndrome are associated with mild leukocytosis, but whether hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) play a role in metabolic deterioration is unknown.
Objective: Our objective was to analyze the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between CD34(+) HSPCs, adiposity, and metabolic syndrome features.
Design: This is a cross-sectional study on 242 participants, 155 of whom were followed and included in a longitudinal assessment.
