Abstract

Background To study the long-term prognosis of anorexia nervosa (AN), 484 adult AN patients were followed on a mean duration of 13 years.Results The mortality rate was 1.2%. Eight factors were linked to the lack of recovery at 2 years: low BMI at discharge, low energy and fat intakes, high drive for excessive exercising, high score for perfectionism, for interpersonal distrust and for anxiety, use of tube-feeding and adhesion to treatment (P<0.02). Four factors explained the risk of the binge/purging form at 2 years: having had binge-eating disorder and overweight before AN, having had purging episodes within the first 2 years of AN; having had very high energy intakes through meals and being not treated by tube-feeding. During the 13-year follow-up, very few binge/purging patients turned out to have the restrictive form. Two main factors explained 67% of the variance of menses recovery: having a BMI>18.5 kg/m(2); and having no physical hyperactivity. The recovery rate increased with the elapsing of relapse-free time (P=0.02). After a 13.5-year follow-up, 292 out of the 484 patients were recovered (60.3%), 25.8% had a relatively good outcome, 6.4% a bad outcome and 6.4% a severe outcome. Very few factors were identified as predictors of a good outcome (binge-eating/purging subtype, personality disorder).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
