OBJECTIVE
We previously reported elevated serum levels of the cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) in patients with anorexia nervosa (AN). We investigated the cellular production of these two cytokines and of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), interleukin-1alpha
It is believed that omentin is secreted by stromal cells of adipose tissue and modulates insulin sensitivity. Data from a few studies have shown lower serum omentin in obese children and higher in anorexia nervosa. However, to date, there is lack of research on serum omentin concentrations in
The serotonergic (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) system has been implicated in body weight regulation and in the etiology of anorexia nervosa (AN). Here we describe the screening of the known Phe-124-Cys polymorphism in the 5-HT1Dbeta receptor gene and of the known Pro-279-Leu polymorphism in the 5-HT7
The mean 24-hour secretion and circadian rhythm of melatonin were studied in 12 female subjects with anorexia nervosa (AN), 13 massively obese (OB) women, and 9 normal weight healthy volunteers to investigate the relationship between type of feeding behavior and hormonal secretory pattern. Blood
Adrenalectomy of gold thioglucose (GTG)-treated hyperphagic obese mice had been shown by us earlier to result in anorexia, weight loss, hypoglycemia and subsequent death of all mice. More recent studies suggest that adipose tissue mass may not be the critical determinant of anorexia since a large
Chickens from lines that have been selected for low (LWS) or high (HWS) juvenile body weight for more than 57 generations provide a unique model by which to research appetite regulation. The LWS display different severities of anorexia, whereas all HWS become obese. In the present study, we measured
A wide spectrum of diseases, as well as states of attenuated ability to heal and recover, can be traced to over- or underweight. Patients at the extremes of the energy balance spectrum are becoming more and more common. In order to provide adequate care for such patients an understanding of the
There is some evidence for the existence of a precise weight/fat threshold for puberty. Following puberty, body weight and shape take on important new psycho-social significances for both males and females. Adolescent females usually strive to reduce their 'fatness' even it is not excessive from a
OBJECTIVE
This case report describes a 16 year-old girl of normal weight with acute gastric dilatation due to binge eating habits.
RESULTS
Psychiatric assessment revealed a history of obesity and later atypical anorexia nervosa, but no current diagnosis of a typical eating disorder. After one month
Objectives: Cognitive biases, particularly attentional biases, have been shown to be central to anorexia nervosa (AN). This study looked at attention deployment when consecutively viewing an obese and own body stimulus that both might
The objective was to compare eating attitudes, conceptualized as beliefs, thoughts, feelings, behaviors and relationship with food, of anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED) patients and a group of obese (OBS) without eating disorders (ED). Female patients from
Intravenous glucose tolerance tests (0,33 g glucose per kg body weight) are performed in 11 self starved women suffering from anorexia nervosa, 10 obese and 8 normal women. They have no genetic or chemical diabetes and belong to the same age group. Plasma concentrations of immuno-reactive insuline
Cholecystokinin (CCK), glucose dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP), and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) regulate satiety as enterogastrons and incretins. They also directly affect the satiety centers. Therefore, these peptides may participate in the pathogenesis of eating disorders. CCK, GIP, and
The present study was conducted in order to analyze the relationship existing between leptin and insulin levels in massive weight loss and weight recovery. Thirteen patients with severe obesity, 14 patients with anorexia nervosa and 13 healthy control subjects were studied. The patients with severe
OBJECTIVE
We examined longitudinal associations between weight dissatisfaction, weight changes, anorexia of aging, and obesity among 1,793 seniors followed over 4 years between 2003 and 2009.
METHODS
Obesity prevalence (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 30) and prevalence/incidence of weight dissatisfaction,
