Abstract:
SynopsisAbnormalities in central serotonin function have been implicated in the pathogenesis of anorexia nervosa. It is difficult, however, to separate neuroendocrine abnormalities induced by weight loss and malnutrition from those related primarily to the disorder itself. To minimize these influences, this study assessed long-term weight restored anorexics. A correlation between persistent eating-related psychopathology, co-morbid illness and serotonin dysfunction was sought. Nine female weight-restored out-patients who had previously fulfilled DSM-III-R criteria for anorexia nervosa and nine

Abstract:
SynopsisThe clinical course and outcome of anorexia nervosa are presented in a 10-year followup study of 76 severely ill females with anorexia nervosa who met specific diagnostic criteria and had participated in a well-documented hospital treatment study. Information was obtained on 100% of the subjects. A comprehensive assessment was made in 93% of the living subjects in specific categories of weight, eating and weight control behaviours, menstrual function, anorexic attitudes, and psychological, sexual, social and vocational adjustment. Five subjects had died, which gives a crude mortality r

Abstract:
Anorexia nervosa has emerged as a prominent eating disorder affecting young women. This disorder's fundamental characteristic is an abnormally low weight achieved by severe calorie restriction and refusal to maintain body weight at or above the minimally normal weight for age and height. It is a complex disorder with its origins still not explicitly defined. In anorexic individuals, an imbalance in the molecular signalling and hypothalamic neuropeptides is believed to be significantly responsible for alterations in the biological mechanisms associated with body weight, appetite and energy home

Abstract:
Sixty-nine female patients, mean age 27.5 years (range 20-40), with a past or current history of anorexia nervosa (DSM Ill-R) had spinal trabecular bone density assessed by single energy quantitative CT scan. Current exercise and dietary calcium levels were assessed by detailed questionnaires and categorized. A semi-structured interview was used to record weight, menstruation, exercise and dietary calcium intake histories from early adolescence. Serum sex hormones and total calcium assays were measured. Bone density was significantly lower in the patients compared to 31 controls. Bone density

BackgroundIncreased central serotonin (5-HT) function has been hypothesised to be a vulnerability trait in anorexia nervosa.MethodsEighteen women with a history of DSM–III–R anorexia nervosa and 18 female controls were examined. The subjects had recovered weight and menstrual function. A placebo-controlled d-fenfluramine test was used. Subjects ingested d-fenfluramine or placebo and after three hours were offered a ‘free’ meal. The amounts eaten were recorded and plasma Cortisol and prolactin levels were measured.

Abstract:
Eating behaviour, nutritional intake and psychopathology were examined in 16 weight-recovered anorexia nervosa patients. The Eating Disorders Examination (EDE) and a food diary were the main outcome measures, but body fat content and psychosocial adjustment were also assessed. Although body fat and overall psychosocial adjustment had returned to normal in most patients, 12 still had a restricted eating pattern with nutritional intake below 90% of their energy requirements. These results suggest that weight, menstruation, and psychosocial criteria are not sufficient to determine full recovery f

Background. Achalasia may lead to cachexia if not diagnosed in an early stage. Surgery in cachectic patients is hazardous and complications may result in a protracted recovery or even death. Different treatment options have been described. In this paper, we report a stepwise surgical laparoscopic approach which appears to be safe and effective.Methods. Over a one-year period, a patient with a body mass index (BMI) below 17 being treated for anorexia nervosa was referred with dysphagia. Because of the extreme cachexia, a laparoscopic feeding jejunostomy (LFJ) was fashioned to enable long-term h

Abstract:
Background. Patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) are characterized by a very low body weight but readily give up immediate rewards (food) for long-term goals (slim figure), which might indicate an unusual level of self-control. This everyday clinical observation may be quantifiable in the framework of the anticipation-discounting dilemma. Method. Using a cross-sectional design, this study compared the capacity to delay reward in 34 patients suffering from acute AN (acAN), 33 weight-recovered AN patients (recAN) and 54 healthy controls. We also used a longitudinal study to reassess 21 acAN patie

Abstract:
Anorexia nervosa (AN), a psychiatric disorder characterized by restriction of food intake despite severe weight loss, is associated with increased comorbid anxiety and depression. Secretion of oxytocin, an appetite-regulating neurohormone with anxiolytic and antidepressant properties, is abnormal in AN. The link between oxytocin levels and psychopathology in AN has not been well explored. We performed a cross-sectional study of 80 women ages 18-45 years old [(20 AN, 26 weight recovered AN (ANWR) and 34 healthy controls (HC)] investigating the relationship between basal oxytocin levels and diso
