Popis: | Background and aims Adolescents are increasingly referred to our specialist eating disorder (ED) program having lost large amounts of weight and having the diagnostic features of anorexia nervosa (AN) with the exception of underweight. Many of these adolescents with EDNOS-AN[wt] were premorbidly overweight. We aimed to identify the changing prevalence of this phenotype from 2005-2010 in an inpatient sample, and compare the associated complications with adolescents with AN. |
