To follow and predict the evolution of adiposity during growth, individual adiposity curves, assessed by the weight/height2 index, were drawn for 151 children from the age of 1 month to 16 yr. Adiposity increases during the 1st yr and then decreases. A renewed rise, termed here the adiposity rebound, occurs at about 6 yr. Individual weight/height2 curves may differ regarding their percentile range level and age at adiposity rebound. The present study shows a relationship between the age at adiposity rebound and final adiposity. An early rebound (before 5.5 yr) is followed by a significantly higher adiposity level than a later rebound (after 7 yr). This phenomenon is observed whatever the subject's adiposity at 1 yr. The present observations might be connected with the cellularity of adipose tissue.
为追踪和预测生长过程中肥胖的发展，通过体重/身高²指数评估，为151名1个月至16岁的儿童绘制了个体肥胖曲线。肥胖在第1年增加，然后下降。大约在6岁时会再次上升，这里称为肥胖反弹。个体体重/身高²曲线在肥胖反弹时的百分位数范围水平和年龄可能会有所不同。本研究表明肥胖反弹年龄与最终肥胖之间存在关联。早期反弹（5.5岁之前）之后的肥胖水平显著高于后期反弹（7岁之后）。无论受试者1岁时的肥胖情况如何，都会观察到这种现象。目前的观察结果可能与脂肪组织的细胞构成有关。
