Feeding and eating disorders (FEDs) are a heterogeneous grouping of at the mind-body interface, with typical onset from childhood into emerging adulthood. They occur along spectrum disordered compensatory weight management behaviors, low to high body weight. Psychiatric comorbidities norm. In contrast other major psychiatric disorders, first-line treatments for FEDs mainly psychological and/or nutrition-focused, medications playing minor adjunctive role. Patients, carers clinicians all have identified personalization treatment as priority. Yet, FEDs, evidence base supporting this is limited. Importantly, related behaviors can serious physical consequences may put patient's life risk. these cases, immediate safety risk considerations least period need be prioritized over efforts care. This paper systematically reviews several key domains that relevant characterization individual patient FED aimed management. These include symptom profile, clinical subtypes, severity, staging, complications consequences, antecedent concomitant conditions, social functioning quality life, neurocognition, cognition emotion, dysfunctional cognitive schemata, personality traits, family history, early environmental exposures, recent stigma, protective factors. Where possible, validated assessment measures use in practice identified. The limitations current pointed out, possible directions future research highlighted. also novel approaches providing more fine-grained sophisticated ways personalize such those utilize neurobiological markers. We additionally outline remote measurement technologies designed delineate patients' illness recovery trajectories facilitate development intervention approaches.

ABSTRACT Objective The COVID‐19 pandemic was associated with a significant rise in the incidence of anorexia nervosa (AN) and atypical (AAN), longer wait times reduced opportunities for in‐person medical services. How these changes affected clinical outcomes among adolescents newly diagnosed AN/AAN remains largely unknown. Methods We performed retrospective analysis standardized intake follow‐up data from pediatric eating disorder program to compare during pre‐pandemic (July/2017–December/2018) (July/2020–December/2021) periods. Clinical were collected at time diagnosis 1‐, 3‐, 6‐, 12‐month intervals. primary unscheduled AN/AAN‐related emergency department visits need hospitalization. Results Overall, 253 patients included (pre‐pandemic = 77; 176). By 12‐months following diagnosis, 18.8% (95% CI 13.3%–25.3%) had visits, compared 7.8% 2.9%–16.2%, p 0.03) those pre‐pandemic.

Participants were AYA (spouses not included), ages 10-26 years. De-identified data extracted from the Military Health System Data Repository 2016-2021. Kaplan-Meier risk estimates determined proportion participants a following their initial ED diagnosis across time.

ABSTRACT Objective This study investigated post‐pandemic trends in the incidence of eating disorders (EDs) by comparing annual observed from January 1st, 2020, to December 31st, 2023, expected based on pre‐pandemic (2010–2019). Method Primary and auxiliary ICD‐10 diagnoses new‐onset ED cases were retrieved Norwegian Patient Registry which is a national register covering all specialized healthcare services Norway. Incidence rates (IRs) per 100,000 stratified age, sex, diagnosis: anorexia nervosa (AN; F50.0 + 50.1), bulimia (BN; F50.2 50.3), other EDs (F50.4–50.9). To assess impact COVID‐19 pandemic, linear regression models used estimate excess between 2020 2023. Results IRs for peaked 2021, with overall rate females being 45.5% higher than 2021 before declining an 19.4% The highest aged 15–19, followed 10–14 20–24 years.
