AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how different eating disorders (like anorexia and bulimia) vary in terms of symptoms related to anxiety, OCD, and depression upon treatment admission.
- It included a sample of 3,730 adults and found that symptom patterns varied by disorder, with anorexia and avoidant/restrictive disorders showing more anxiety and OCD symptoms, while binge eating disorder had more depressive symptoms.
- Overall, all patients, especially those with ARFID and binge eating disorder, showed significant improvement in their symptoms after treatment, although some groups had higher initial severity compared to others.
Article Abstract
Objective: The present study examined whether patients with binge/purge and restricting anorexia nervosa (AN-BP and AN-R), bulimia nervosa (BN), binge eating disorder (BED), avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), and other specified feeding and eating disorder (OSFED) differ in generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and depression symptom patterns and overall comorbid symptom severity at admission. We also assessed between-group differences in the patterns of change and overall comorbid symptom severity change from admission to discharge from routine eating disorder (ED) treatment at higher levels of care (HLOC).
Method: The initial sample included 3730 adults routinely assessed for GAD, depression, and OCD at admission and discharge from treatment.
Results And Conclusions: ED diagnostic groups exhibited somewhat different symptom patterns (e.g., AN-R and ARFID were more prone to GAD and OCD than depression symptoms; BED exhibited the opposite pattern) and overall symptom severity at admission (i.e., AN-BP and OSFED had the highest overall comorbid symptom severity; BED had the lowest). Although the overall symptom improvement was significantly greater in ARFID and BED than in AN-BP, AN-R, and OSFED, ED patients collectively and within each diagnostic group improved significantly in GAD, OCD, and depression symptoms following routine ED treatment at HLOC.

Introduction And Objective: Conditions resulting from diseases of the brain-gut axis and gum-gut axis show many mutual, often bi-directional interrelationships. The accompanying quantitative and/or qualitative disorders of intestinal microflora may be effectively regulated by implementation of a properly adjusted diet therapy. The aim of the study is to investigate whether there is a relationship between small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and non-specific inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), as well as indications for the mode of nutrition.

Objective: Refeeding oedema, believed to result from the effects of insulin on renal sodium retention and subsequent oedema formation, typically occurs during the first 2 weeks after reintroduction of nutrition in individuals with severe malnutrition and can intensify body image distress in patients with eating disorders (EDs). Phosphate supplements have been found to increase insulin sensitivity, and it is hypothesised that they may also contribute to refeeding oedema in patients with EDs.
Method: In this retrospective cohort study of 633 patients with severe malnutrition due to anorexia nervosa (AN) or avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), the impact of phosphate supplementation on the rate of weight gain was investigated.
