Background. Most previous mortality research in eating disorders involves individuals attending specialist treatment services. Data linkage across jurisdictional health databases at a population level improves the generalisability of findings. Aims. To investigate mortality risk and causes of death for people with an eating disorder across a large geographic region using administrative health datasets. Method. Using linked hospital, mental health and death records, a retrospective cohort study was conducted including individuals aged 10-59 years who received an eating disorder diagnosis during hospital-based encounters in Australia, over a 10-year period between 2010 and 2019. A contemporary cohort of people accessing community care only were also evaluated. Mortality rates and standardised morality ratios (SMR) compared to the general population were calculated for each state, and by sex and age groups. Cox regression models were used to assess the risk of sociodemographic characteristics on mortality. Results. Mortality in people hospitalised with an eating disorder (N=19,697) was more than four times higher than the general population (SMR: 4.54), and highest in people aged 30-39 years (SMR: 13.32). Men hospitalised for eating disorders had a higher risk of death. Mortality rates in anorexia nervosa were not higher than other eating disorder diagnoses. Almost three-quarters of deaths were caused by suicide/self-harm or cardio/respiratory illness. Conclusions. People accessing hospital care with eating disorders in Australia have a higher risk of premature death regardless of age, sex or eating disorder diagnosis. Gender and age group disparities can inform policy and resource allocation and support the development of targeted interventions.

This dataset comprises survey and interview results from an investigation into the efficacy of motivational interviewing in engaging individuals with anorexia nervosa in treatment. Responses from 47 participants (2 male and 45 female aged between 16 and 37 years) are arranged in a database.Participants were part of an inpatient anorexia nervosa population, assessed over three waves; at admission to hospital (baseline), and at 2 and 6 week follow up. Assessment were conducted face to face for participants in hospital and via the telephone for those who had been discharged.The Anorexia Nervosa Stages of Change Questionnaire (ANSOCQ) was used for the study.Date coverage: 2005-10-01 - 2008-08-01Location: Adelaide, South Australia, Australia

BackgroundEvidence for anorexia and bulimia in relation to the risk of ulcerative colitis (UC) is limited and inconsistent. The objective of this research was to utilize bi-directional, two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to predict the causal association between anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa with UC.MethodsThe genome-wide association studies (GWAS) provided data for anorexia and bulimia from the UK Biobank, utilizing single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) as instrumental variables. Additionally, genetic associations with UC were collected from various sources including the FinnGen Biobank, the UK Biobank and the International Inflammatory Bowel Disease Genetics Consortium (IIBDGC). The main analytical approach utilized in this study was the inverse-variance-weighted (IVW) method. To evaluate horizontal pleiotropy, the researchers conducted MR-Egger regression and MR-PRESSO global test analyses. Additionally, heterogeneity was assessed using the Cochran’s Q test.ResultsThis study found a negative association between genetically predicted bulimia (OR = 0.943, 95% CI: 0.893–0.996; p = 0.034) and the risk of UC in the IIBDGC dataset, indicating that individuals with bulimia have approximately a 5.7% lower risk of developing UC. No association was observed in the other two datasets. Conversely, genetically predicted anorexia was not found to be causally associated with UC. In bi-directional Mendelian randomization, UC from the IIBDGC dataset was negatively associated with the risk of anorexia (OR = 0.877, 95% CI: 0.797–0.965; p = 0.007), suggesting that UC patients have approximately a 12.3% lower risk of developing anorexia, but not causally associated with bulimia.ConclusionGenetically predicted bulimia may have a negative association with the onset of UC, while genetically predicted anorexia does not show a causal relationship with the development of UC. Conversely, genetically predicted UC may have a negative association with the development of anorexia.

PurposeThe unique constraints to everyday life brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic have been suggested to negatively impact those with pre-existing mental health issues such as eating disorders. While individuals with eating disorders or disordered eating behaviors likely represent a vulnerable group to the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact of the pandemic is yet to be fully established.MethodsWe systematically examined the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on eating disorders and disordered eating behaviors. We searched electronic databases MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, and EMBASE for literature published until October 2021. Eligible studies were required to report on individuals with or without a diagnosed eating disorder or disordered eating behaviors who were exposed to the COVID-19 pandemic.FindingsSeventy-two studies met eligibility criteria with the majority reporting an increase in eating disorder or disordered eating behaviors associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, it appears children and adolescents and individuals with a diagnosed eating disorder may present vulnerable groups to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.DiscussionThis mixed systematic review provides a timely insight into COVID-19 eating disorder literature and will assist in understanding possible future long-term impacts of the pandemic on eating disorder behaviors. It appears that the role of stress in the development and maintenance of eating disorders may have been intensified to cope with the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. Future research is needed among understudied and minority groups and to examine the long-term implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on eating disorders and disordered eating behaviors.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?RecordID=284749, PROSPERO [CRD42021284749].

Recent studies have reported altered methylation levels at disorder-relevant DNA sites in people who are ill with Anorexia Nervosa (AN) compared to findings in people with no eating disorder (ED) or in whom AN has remitted. The preceding implies state-related influences upon gene expression in people with AN. This study further examined this notion. We measured genome-wide DNA methylation in 145 women with active AN, 49 showing stable one-year remission of AN, and 64 with no ED. Comparisons revealed 205 differentially methylated sites between active and no ED groups, and 162 differentially methylated sites between active and remitted groups (Q < 0.01). Probes tended to map onto genes relevant to psychiatric, metabolic and immune functions. Notably, several of the genes identified here as being differentially methylated in people with AN (e.g. SYNJ2, PRKAG2, STAT3, CSGALNACT1, NEGR1, NR1H3) have figured in previous studies on AN. Effects also associated illness chronicity and lower BMI with more pronounced DNA methylation alterations, and remission of AN with normalisation of DNA methylation. Findings corroborate earlier results suggesting reversible DNA methylation alterations in AN, and point to particular genes at which epigenetic mechanisms may act to shape AN phenomenology.

How to use the dataset

Using this dataset is quite straightforward. Each row of the table contains information about a certain country or region for a certain year. The following columns are provided: Entity (the country or region name), Code (the code for the country or region), Year (the year the data was collected) Schizophrenia (% - percentage of people with schizophrenia), Bipolar Disorder (%) - percentage of people with bipolar disorder) Eating Disorders (%) - Percentage of individuals with disordered eating patterns Anxiety Disorders (%) - Percentage of individuals with anxiety Drug Use Disorders (%) - Percentage figures for those struggling with substance abuse Depression (%) – Percentages relating to those struggling with depressive illness Alcohol Use Disorders (%) – Percentages relating to those battling alcoholism

Using this dataset requires no special skills; however it is best suited for those comfortable navigating spreadsheets and tables as well as analyzing numerical information quickly and accurately. Many software suites like excel are useful here but simple internet searches will reveal free alternatives if your preference is web-based solutions!

By piecing together these different columns’ values we can get an idea if prevalence rates across different types of mental illnesses increase or decrease over time. For example we could compare depression levels between 2015 and 2018 by creating two separate sets containing information filtered just within our parameters respectively only reading records from 2015 then 2018). From here we can see whether numbers changed very much or stayed stagnant supefying any sort of patterns that could exist

Research Ideas

• Visualizing the prevalence of mental health disorders - Create a data visualization that compares and contrasts the prevalence of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, eating disorders, alcohol use disorder and drug use disorder across different countries. This could provide insight into global differences in mental health and potential causes of those differences.

• Mapping depression rates - Create an interactive map that shows both regional and national variations in depression rates within a specific country or region. This would allow people to easily identify areas with higher or lower than average prevalence of depression which could help inform decision-makers when it comes to policy-making related to mental healthcare services provisioning.

• Developing predictive models for mental health - Use the data from this dataset as part of a larger machine learning project to build predictive models for mental health across countries or regions based on various factors such as demographics, economic indicators etc., This can be helpful for researchers working on understanding populations’ susceptibility towards developing certain disorders so as to craft appropriate preventive strategies accordingly

The HealthLink BC Mental Health and Substance Use (MHSU) data set includes the following: Programs that offer early intervention, transitional care or other services that supplement and facilitate primary and adjunctive therapies; which offer community mental health education programs; or which link people who are in need of treatment with appropriate providers. Programs that provide preventive, diagnostic and treatment services in a variety of community and hospital-based settings to help people achieve, maintain and enhance a state of emotional well-being, personal empowerment and the skills to cope with everyday demands without excessive stress or reliance on alcohol or other drugs. Treatment may include emotional support, introspection and problem-solving assistance using a variety of modalities and approaches, and medication, as needed, for individuals who have a substance use disorder involving alcohol and/or other drugs or for people who range from experiencing difficult life transitions or problems in coping with daily living to those with severe, chronic mental illnesses that seriously impact their lives. Multidisciplinary programs, often offered on an inpatient basis with post-discharge outpatient therapy, that provide comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services for individuals who have anorexia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, bulimia or a related eating disorder. Treatment depends on the specific type of eating disorder involved but typically involves psychotherapy, nutrition education, family counseling, medication and hospitalization, if required, to stabilize the patient's health.

Objective: To evaluate the inappropriate eating behaviors (IEB) of female adolescents over a one-year period.Methods:290 adolescents aged between 11 and 14 years old participated in the three research stages (T1: first four months, T2: second four months and T3: third four months). The Eating Attitudes Test (EAT-26) was applied to assess the IEB. Weight and height were measured to calculate body mass index (BMI) in the three study periods. Analysis of variance for repeated measures was used to analyze the data, adjusted for the scores of the Body Shape Questionnaire and the Brazil Economic Classification Criteria.Results:Girls at T1 showed a higher frequency of IEB compared to T2 (p=0.001) and T3 (p=0.001). The findings also indicated higher values for BMI in T3 in relation to T1 (p=0.04). The other comparisons did not show statistically significant differences.Conclusions:IEB scores of female adolescents declined over one year.

Eating disorders (EDs) are characterized by disturbances in eating behavior and occur worldwide, with a lifetime prevalence of 2 to 5%. Their etiology is complex and multifactorial, involving a complex interplay between genetic, biological, psychological, sociocultural, and environmental factors. They are more common among females than males and may be associated with medical and psychiatric complications, impaired functioning, and decreased quality of life. This narrative review aims at providing an updated contribution to the current understanding of gender differences in eating disorders (EDs) focusing on male population to foster more targeted and effective clinical interventions. A comprehensive review of the scientific literature was conducted by analyzing several major databases, including PubMed, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar. Only in recent years, there has been increased attention on the male population, revealing multiple differences between genders in terms of prevalence, onset, phenomenology, diagnosis, comorbidities, and outcomes of EDs. Moreover, the relationship between different sexual orientations and/or gender identities and EDs is an emerging field of study. Data suggest an increase in eating disorders (EDs) also among the male population underlines the importance that healthcare personnel of all specialties acquire basic competencies for adequately tackling these disorders in a gender perspective. In particular, prevention and early intervention, especially during critical developmental periods like puberty and adolescence, are crucial to avoid permanent damage. Future research and public health initiatives involving schools and families and targeting males should be addressed to promote a healthy relationship with food and body image, reduce stigma, and encourage people to seek help when needed.

Eating disorders significantly impact the quality of life of the persons they affect, as well as their involvement in school bullying. People with bulimia and binge-eating disorders are known to be more likely to be victims of bullying; however, studies provide mixed evidence on the connection between bullying and anorexia. Therefore, in this paper, we suggest an explanation for the bullying victimization of people with anorexia. Our theoretical framework is based on psychoanalytical research on eating disorders, and we illustrate our arguments with the results of biographical interviews with 50 girls who have been diagnosed with anorexia. We show that a hostile family environment may influence the girls’ proneness to fall victim to school bullying. Therefore, school staff hoping to address the involvement of girls with anorexia in bullying should be aware of the role that family members play in bullying victimization and tailor interventions accordingly.

IntroductionMany people with eating disorders report having experienced childhood maltreatment or a traumatic event prior to developing an eating disorder. Although many people with eating disorders eating disorders have significant traumatic exposure or symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder, very little research has examined the effects of combined combined treatments for this group. The purpose of this systematic review was to synthesize all existing research on biological treatments for those with eating disorders and psychological trauma, evaluate their safety, and identify future areas of research research in this area to support to support patients with eating disorders and psychological trauma.MethodA multi-step literature search, according to an a priori protocol was performed on PubMed, Embase, APA PsycINFO, Web of Science, Scopus and Cochrane Central. Studies needed to include a biological intervention and report on at least one eating disorder or psychological trauma outcome. Given the limited research in this area, minimal exclusion criteria were applied. A quality assessment of all included studies was completed using the Risk of Bias in Non-Randomized Studies-or Interventions (ROBINS-I) tool.ResultsAfter removing duplicates, 2623 article titles and abstracts were screened, with 43 articles selected for a full-text review. Following the full-text review, 11 articles met the inclusion criteria. The biological treatments examined included repurposed medications (n = 3), ketamine (n = 2), repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS; n = 2), deep brain stimulation (n =1) electroconvulsive therapy (ECT; n = 1), 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA; n = 1), and neurofeedback (n = 1). All studies reported on some improvement in either eating disorder or trauma pathology, with the strongest effect for repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and MDMA. While some effects were promising, missing data and selective reporting limited the interpretability of the findings. Adverse events across interventions were common.ConclusionAlthough psychological trauma is common in those with eating disorders, very few treatments have been evaluated in this population. Future work should aim to investigate biological treatments for those with co-occurring eating disorders and psychological trauma, as these evolving treatments show potential benefits for this complex group.

Body image disturbance is a core characteristic of anorexia nervosa which might be grounded in distortions in schematic body representations. In line with this, several studies showed that when walking through door-like apertures of different widths individuals with anorexia nervosa move as if their bodies are larger than they actually are. They turn their body at a higher aperture/shoulder width ratio than healthy individuals. We examined whether oversized body-scaled motoric behaviors may not be restricted to anorexia nervosa but concern a general feature of negative body image attitudes. Therefore, we investigated the relation between negative body image as assessed with shape and weight concerns subscales of the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire and aperture/shoulder width turning ratios in women with a healthy weight (N = 62). We found that a more negative body image was unrelated to higher aperture/shoulder width turning ratios. Bayes analysis provided moderate evidence for the null hypothesis that spontaneous body-scaled motoric behaviors are not involved in negative body image. Future studies should disentangle whether being underweight per se is related to distinctive spontaneous body-scaled motoric behaviors or whether an ‘oversized’ body schema is a unique characteristic of anorexia nervosa, potentially contributing to the persistence of this disorder.

Comparing oneself against such internalized body ideals which have extremely low BMI is seen as an important source of body dissatisfaction. The aim of this study was to investigate a novel body image training designed to shift internalized norms for body size towards less extreme positions. Effects of the intervention on body image and eating disorder symptoms were investigated in twelve adolescent girls with an eating disorder using a replicated randomized two-phase single-case experimental design. Participants (N = 12) received six 10-minute training sessions alongside treatment as usual. Participants' starting point in time for the training was randomly assigned between day 8 and 14 within the continuous 23-day study window. Participants were presented 3D images of a female model who varied in BMI, and on each presentation had to judge the model as either “thin” or “fat”. By giving feedback which challenged their judgements, the aim was to gradually increase the BMI representing the transition from thin to fat judgements, thereby shifting participants’ body size norms towards a more realistic standard. Primary outcome measures were assessed on each of the 23 days. Results showed a significant overall small effect of the training on body image. No significant overall decrease in eating disorder symptoms was found. Although these findings are promising, the small effect size and differences between participants suggest that the training procedure should be improved before further investigating this training in clinical practice.

Abstract Orofacial pain and temporomandibular dysfunction may cause chronic facial pain, which may interfere with the emotional state and food intake of patients with eating disorders (ED), such as anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN). Sixty-four patients were assigned to four groups: Group A (AN – restricting subtype): 07; Group B (AN – purging subtype ): 19; Group C (BN): 16; and Group D (control): 22. Complaints of pain are more prevalent in individuals with eating disorders (p<0.004). There are differences between the presence of myofascial pain and the number of hospitalizations (p = 0.046) and the presence of sore throat (p=0.05). There was a higher prevalence of masticatory myofascial pain and complaints of pain in other parts of the body in ED patients; however, there was no difference between ED subgroups. There was no difference in the number of self-induced vomiting between ED patients with and without myofascial pain.
