| Popis: | Bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED) are characterized by episodes of eating large amounts of food whilst experiencing a loss of control. Recent studies suggest that the underlying causes of BN/BED consist of a complex system of environmental cues, atypical processing of food stimuli, altered behavioral responding, and structural/functional brain differences compared with healthy controls (HC). In this narrative review, we provide an integrative account of the brain networks associated with the three cognitive constructs most integral to BN and BED, namely increased reward sensitivity, decreased cognitive control, and altered negative affect and stress responding. We show altered activity in BED/BN within several brain networks, specifically in the striatum, insula, prefrontal and orbitofrontal cortex, and cingulate gyrus. Numerous key nodes in these networks also differ in volume and connectivity compared with HC. We provide suggestions for how this integration may guide future research into these brain networks and cognitive constructs.Significance statementBinge eating disorder and bulimia nervosa are common eating disorders and remain a major problem due to the association with a variety of health risks. This review shows that three cognitive constructs that underlie these disorders, namely reward sensitivity, cognitive control, and negative affect, can be explained in terms of brain activity differences in key brain networks. These activity differences are interpreted in light of differences in brain volume and connectivity, observed in different studies. Furthermore, the role of these networks involving the striatum, insula, prefrontal and orbitofrontal cortex, and cingulate gyrus, are interpreted by means of the current understanding of their function and mechanisms. Finally, suggestions for further research integrating brain function and structure in binge eating are made. |
