We explored the utility of "staging" anorexia nervosa (AN) by duration of illness and psychological wellbeing. We also investigated 12-month symptom trajectories and service usage in a large cohort of patients with AN assessed for outpatient treatment. We conducted secondary analyses on data from a multisite clinical trial of adults with AN (n = 18...

Caregivers (N = 387) completed an online survey about their child's weight history, treatment history, illness trajectory, and recovery. Children were predominantly females with adolescent onset anorexia nervosa and currently 18.4 years old on aver...

Biased attention for disorder-relevant information plays a crucial role in the maintenance of different mental disorders including eating disorders and might be of use to define recovery beyond symptom-related criteria. We assessed attention deployment using eye tracking in a cued choice viewing paradigm to two different categories of disorder-rele...

Malnutrition and low weight in eating disorders (EDs) are associated with increased fracture risk compared to the general population. In a cohort study, we aimed to determine fracture rates compared to age and gender matched controls (ratio 5:1), assess the impact of disease remission on fracture risk, and establish predictive factors for fractures...
