Obepi-Roche 2020 by the "Ligue Contre l'Obésité" (League Against Obesity) estimated overweight and obesity prevalence in France. The adopted methodology was chosen to be as similar as possible to that of a series of quota-based surveys conducted every three years from 1997 to 2012 (Obepi-Roche studies). The 2020 survey was conducted online from 24th September to 5th October 2020 by the Odoxa polling institute on a sample of metropolitan French subjects aged 18 years or over. Participants ( = 9598) self-measured their height and weight according to detailed instructions. Prevalence estimates were produced for all categories of body mass index. The prevalence of excess weight was 47.3% (17.0% of subjects with obesity), with higher values in the north and east of France. When comparing these 2020 estimates to previous Obepi-Roche estimates in order to visualize trends since 1997, it appeared that overweight fluctuated around 30%, and obesity prevalence increased steadily at a rapid pace. The increase was even steeper in the youngest age groups and for severe and complex obesity. Given the slightly different methodologies between the 1997-2012 studies and the 2020 survey, the worrying trends in obesity prevalence since 1997 must be confirmed, calling for a reedition of the Obepi-Roche series.
“反肥胖联盟”开展的2020年奥贝皮-罗氏研究估算了法国超重和肥胖的患病率。所采用的方法尽可能与1997年至2012年每三年进行一次的一系列基于配额的调查（奥贝皮-罗氏研究）的方法相似。2020年的调查由奥多克萨民意调查机构于2020年9月24日至10月5日在线进行，样本为18岁及以上的法国本土受试者。参与者（n = 9598）根据详细说明自行测量身高和体重。对所有体重指数类别进行了患病率估算。超重患病率为47.3%（肥胖受试者占17.0%），法国北部和东部的患病率更高。为了观察自1997年以来的趋势，将2020年的这些估算值与之前奥贝皮-罗氏研究的估算值进行比较时，发现超重率在30%左右波动，肥胖患病率则快速稳步上升。在最年轻的年龄组以及重度和复杂肥胖人群中，增长更为显著。鉴于1997 - 2012年研究与2020年调查的方法略有不同，1997年以来肥胖患病率令人担忧的趋势必须得到证实，这就需要重新开展奥贝皮-罗氏系列研究。
