L'obésité intra-abdominale [...] se distingue [...] de l'obésité dite abdominale en ce que cette dernière tient compte à la fois des dépôts viscéraux (profonds) et des dépôts sous-cutanés (superficiels) de tissu adipeux. Or, des différences métaboliques notables distinguent ces deux types de dépôts, et il appert que le tissu adipeux viscéral soit celui qui est associé de façon plus importante au risque de développer les maladies cardiovasculaires et le diabète de type 2. 3, record 1, French, - ob%C3%A9sit%C3%A9%20visc%C3%A9rale
