This book was released on 2019 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: Diet-related chronic health conditions (DRCHCs) are a category of diseases that include Type I Diabetes, Cystic Fibrosis, Celiac Disease, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and revolve around food, diet, and weight. IBD is an umbrella term for Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis, both of which are chronic, autoimmune conditions that primarily affect the gastrointestinal system. Although previous research has demonstrated that adolescents with DRCHCs are vulnerable to disordered eating behaviors, the prevalence and risk factors of such concerns within a pediatric IBD population has yet to be explored. This study investigated the prevalence of, and risk factors for, disordered eating behaviors in adolescents with IBD. Methods: This cross-sectional, multi-site survey study recruited via three outpatient pediatric IBD clinics in the ImproveCareNow research collaborative and ImproveCareNow social media postings. Interested pediatric patients with IBD between 12 and 22 years of age were electronically consented to the study and completed the online survey study. Survey study measures included the EDE-Q, IMPACT-III, and the RCADS-25, which assessed disordered eating behaviors, pediatric IBD-specific quality of life, and internalizing symptoms, respectively. Results: Approximately 34% of participants reported clinically significant shape concerns (i.e., discomfort with body shape) and more than 17% reported clinically significant EDE-Q total scores. No differences were found by gender between adolescents with IBD and established norms for healthy individuals. Lower body image, higher anxiety, and lower quality of life were found to significantly predict disordered eating behaviors in this population. Small effect sizes were identified for several medical variables, including diagnosis subtype, surgery history, and previous steroid use, on disordered eating behaviors. Conclusions: Over one third of the study sample endorsed clinically significant shape-related disordered eating thoughts and nearly 20% endorsed symptoms that suggest clinically significant disordered eating, consistent with findings from other DRCHCs research. These findings suggest that pediatric patients with IBD are more likely to identify concerns with thoughts related to disordered eating than disordered eating behaviors. Medical variables may be related to disordered eating thoughts and behaviors. Future research should seek to assess if these findings are replicated with a large sample size. Given the relatively high prevalence, findings suggest that clinicians and researchers should continue to assess body image concerns and disordered eating behaviors in adolescents with IBD in the medical and psychosocial care for this population.

Download or read book Eating Disorders in Boys and Men written by Jason M. Nagata and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-12 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boys and men with eating disorders remain a population that is under-recognized and underserved within both research and clinical contexts. It has been well documented that boys and men with eating disorders often exhibit distinct clinical presentations with regard to core cognitive (e.g., body image) and behavioral (e.g., pathological exercise) symptoms. Such differences, along with the greater likelihood of muscularity-oriented disordered eating among boys and men, emphasize the importance of understanding and recognizing unique factors of clinical relevance within this population. This book reviews the most up-to-date research findings on eating disorders among boys and men, with an emphasis on clinically salient information across multiple domains. Five sections are included, with the first focused on a historical overview and the unique nature and prevalence of specific forms of eating disorder symptoms and body image concerns in boys and men. The second section details population-specific considerations for the diagnosis and assessment of eating disorders, body image concerns, and muscle dysmorphia in boys and men. The third section identifies unique concerns regarding medical complications and care in this population, including medical complications of appearance and performance-enhancing substances. The fourth section reviews current findings and considerations for eating disorder prevention and intervention for boys and men. The fifth section of the book focuses on specific populations (e.g., sexual minorities, gender minorities) and addresses sociocultural factors of particular relevance for eating disorders in boys and men (e.g., racial and ethnic considerations, cross-cultural considerations). The book then concludes with a concise overview of key takeaways and a focused summary of current evidence gaps and unanswered questions, as well as directions for future research. Written by experts in the field, Eating Disorders in Boys and Men is a comprehensive guide to an under-reported topic. It is an excellent resource for primary care physicians, adolescent medicine physicians, pediatricians, psychologists, clinical social workers, and any other professional conducting research with or providing clinical care for boys and men with eating disorders. It is also an excellent resource for students, residents, fellows, and trainees across various disciplines.

'Presents information in manageable chunks which are easy to digest. Research is clearly linked to clinical practice. Easy to read. Helpful. Comprehensive. A valuable resource for new as well as experienced clinicians.' - Primary Care and Community Psychiatry. "Last year's Review was very well received, by researchers and clinicians alike, and I am confident that the same will be true this year. Keeping track of the latest developments in the research on eating disorders is a major challenge for all of us. The abundant information that is now available via journals, online reference web sites, university databases, and individualized e-alerts can be so overwhelming that it is difficult to see the forest trough the trees. Integrating results from various sources and translating these findings into day-to-day clinical practice is not easily done. The "Annual Review" truly is the best way to stay up to date!" - Eric F van Furth, in the Foreword.
Download or read book Maternal Factors in the Disordered Eating of Adolescent Girls written by Miriam Goldstein and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disordered eating behaviors occur at high rates among adolescent girls of all ethnicities and are associated with increased risk of eating disorders. Maternal influences such as maternal disordered eating, childhood feeding practices, and the mother-teen relationship quality have been implicated as risk factors for disordered eating in adolescent girls, but few studies have examined the interplay of these influences within a single model, controlling for adolescent age. To address this gap, the current study proposed a theoretical model and tested a series of moderated mediation pathways from maternal disordered eating to disordered eating behaviors in female adolescents. The model was examined using an existing dataset from a diverse sample of 100 mother-daughter dyads, with adolescents aged 10 to 18 years. Contrary to expectations, mothers’ and adolescents’ disordered eating were not significantly related. Results provided partial support for paths between disordered maternal eating and unhealthy feeding, as well as unhealthy feeding and disordered adolescent eating. Specifically, model paths were supported when both variables were reported by the same informant (i.e., mother or daughter) but not when variables were reported by different informants (i.e., mother and daughter). Mother-daughter closeness moderated the feeding–adolescent eating association, such that greater emotional feeding was associated with more emotional eating among adolescents reporting average or low closeness, but not high closeness. Mother-daughter discord was not a significant moderator of model paths. Findings suggest that a close mother-daughter relationship may serve as a buffer against the negative impact of unhealthy feeding behaviors in adolescent disordered eating. In addition, results underscore the importance of informant perspective in dyadic research and suggest that individuals understand and interpret their own and others’ behaviors through an internally consistent lens

Book excerpt: Key issues common to nutritionally related disorders of adolescents - atherosclerosis, hypertension, obestity, anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and birth of suboptimal weight infants - are examined here in terms of macro- and micro-nutrient requirements and their effects on growth and pubertal development. Key investigators present data addressing the genetic, behavioural and environmental contributors to these nutritional disorders, including diet, exercise, habitual physical activity, body composition, dyslipidemia, and risk-taking behaviour. The effects of changing roles of women and ideals in body shape on the eating habits of adolescents are examined as well.

Download or read book Treating Bulimia in Adolescents written by Daniel Le Grange and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2007-01-16 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teenagers are twice as likely to have bulimia nervosa than anorexia nervosa, and are often more motivated to seek help. Yet while well-tested therapies exist for anorexia, until now there has been a total lack of evidence-based treatment guidelines for bulimia. This state-of-the-art manual is the first to focus specifically on this significant clinical population. The authors present a time-limited bulimia treatment that is based on the proven Maudsley approach to treating anorexia, and that has been demonstrated effective in a controlled clinical trial at the University of Chicago.
