“…In accordance with previous studies, we also found a relationship between specific phenomena such as loss of control of eating, purging behaviour, and body distortion, in youth with later depression [41,42], independent of prior body weight and baseline depressive symptoms. Eating-disordered behaviour likely reflects high dissatisfaction with oneself and ''the undue influence of body weight or shape on self-esteem'' (DSM-5, [43]), both of which may contribute to the development of depression.…”

This study reports the outcomes of childhood and adolescent eating-disordered behaviour on the development of body mass index (BMI) and psychological functioning in young adulthood in a population-based sample in Germany (the BELLA study). Information at baseline and follow-up was obtained through a telephone interview and mailed self-report questionnaires. At both measurement points, BMI, eating disorder symptoms (SCOFF questionnaire), and symptoms of depression and anxiety were assessed in the same cohort of 771 participants (n = 420 females, n = 351 males). The age range at baseline was 11-17 years, and the age range at follow-up was 17-23 years. High scores for eating-disordered behaviour in childhood or adolescence significantly predicted eating-disordered behaviour in young adulthood (multiplicative effect estimate: 1.31; 95 % CI: 1.2-1.42, p < 0.0001), although there was a decline in prevalence (from 19.3 to 13.8 %, p = 0.002) and severity (mean decrease in SCOFF 0.07, 95 % CI: -0.01-0.14, p = 0.06). After accounting for potentially confounding variables at baseline (SES, probands' BMI, parental BMI, depressive symptoms), participants with more eating disorder symptoms at baseline had a higher risk of developing overweight (odds ratio (OR): 1.58; 95 % CI: 1.19-2.09, p = 0.001), obesity (OR = 1.67; 95 % CI: 1.03-2.66, p = 0.03), and depressive symptoms at follow-up (additive effect estimate: 0.45; 95 %CI: 0.19-0.7, p = 0.0006). Early symptoms of depression showed a significant relationship with extreme underweight in young adulthood (OR = 1.13; 95 %CI: 1.01-1.25, p = 0.02). The high stability of eating disorder symptoms and the significant association with overweight and worse mental health in adulthood underscore the need for early detection and intervention during childhood and adolescence. Youth with depression should be monitored for the development of restrictive eating disorders.

“…21,22 LOC eating is associated with excess body weight and adiposity, 23 and reports of LOC eating increases the risk of excess adiposity gain during childhood, 24 as well as incidence of overweight and obesity in adolescents and young adults. 25 After adjusting for fat mass, youth who report LOC eating have higher blood pressure and higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol compared to their peers who do not report LOC eating. 26 Moreover, those with LOC eating are five times more likely to develop metabolic syndrome at 5-year follow-up, with changes in BMI only partially explaining this association.…”

Pediatric Loss of Control Eating and High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Concentrations

Background: Loss of control (LOC) eating in youth is associated with excess body weight and adiposity. After adjusting for fat mass, youth with LOC eating have higher blood pressure and higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol compared to youth without LOC eating. Increased inflammation may account for this relationship, although few data have examined this hypothesis. Therefore, this study explored the association between LOC eating and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), a marker of inflammation.Methods: We investigated hsCRP concentrations in relation to LOC eating in a convenience sample of 194 youth (age 14.3 -2.1 years; 63.9% female; BMI-z 1.64 -1.06). The presence of LOC eating in the past month was assessed by the Eating Disorder Examination interview. Serum hsCRP was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Adiposity was measured by air displacement plethysmography or dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. We compared hsCRP in those with and without LOC eating in analyses accounting for sex, adiposity, height, depressive symptoms, and eating psychopathology.Results: Youth with LOC eating had significantly greater hsCRP than youth without LOC eating ( p = 0.02), after accounting for all covariates. The number of LOC eating episodes in the past month was positively associated with hsCRP ( p = 0.01). The relationship between LOC eating and hsCRP was not mediated by depressive symptoms or eating psychopathology ( ps > 0.05).Conclusions: Youth with disinhibited eating may manifest increased chronic inflammation. Those with LOC eating may be an important subgroup at risk for adverse health outcomes associated with both chronic inflammation and obesity. Future research should examine whether hsCRP concentrations mediate the relationship between LOC eating and its association with cardiometabolic risk.

“…Loss of control (LOC) is central to binge eating episodes. For instance, research suggests that LOC over eating is a risk factor for eating disorder severity, general psychopathology, and poorer quality life in diverse samples (Elder et al 2008;Latner et al 2007), and that it predicts obesity even after controlling for total amount of food consumption (Sonneville et al 2013). LOC is also related to poor health (Tanofsky-Kraff et al 2008) and negative response to bariatric surgery (White et al 2010) Until recently there were no assessment methods for measuring LOC over eating as a standalone uni-dimensional construct in clinical samples.…”
