Résumé

L’obésité est reconnue comme une pathologie chronique caractérisée par son origine multifactorielle et par son hétérogénéité en termes de déterminants et de présentations phénotypiques [1]. Selon l’Organisation Mondiale de la Santé, l’obésité est définie comme «une situation d’accumulation anormale ou excessive de masse graisseuse dans le tissu adipeux entraînant des inconvénients pour la santé» [1]. La masse grasse et sa relation à l’état de santé sont donc essentielles à la définition et la compréhension des phénotypes d’obésité.
