Primary affective disorder in relatives of patients with anorexia nervosa
Abstract
The authors examined the incidence of primary affective disorder (PAD) in relatives of 25 patients with anorexia nervosa and of 25 normal control subjects. Among the relatives of patients with anorexia nervosa, 22% (N = 43) had histories of PAD, while only 10% (N = 17) of the relatives of controls had such histories. Among the PAD relatives of anorectic probands, 34 had histories of unipolar depression and 9 of bipolar affective disorder. These findings provide further evidence of a possible relationship between anorexia nervosa and affective illness.

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.
