Abstract
Rationale: Measuring body composition is an important issue to phenotype obese patients and to follow the nutritional care efficiency. Bioimpedance (BIA) is a simple and rapid technique. However, validity of BIA in patients with obesity remains controversial. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the validity of several BIA equations to assess body composition in a large cohort of obese patients by using dual X ray absorptiometry (DXA) as reference.
