“…The diagnosis of binge eating disorder was determined using standard diagnostic criteria [32]. Sweet eating was diagnosed when the patient craved simple carbohydrates, and carbohydrate craving could be continuously present or triggered by emotional (anxiety, stress) or physiologic (premenstrual phase) situations [33]. Nibbling was diagnosed when the patient ate small quantities of foods repetitively between meals, typically triggered by inactivity and/or loneliness [33].…”

“…A presença de compulsão alimentar antes da intervenção cirúrgica, por exemplo, tem sido vista como fator de pior prognóstico, seja com relação à menor redução de peso [6][7][8] , seja com relação à reaquisição dele após a fase de estabilização, em geral devido ao equivalente "beliscar" compulsivo 3,[9][10][11][12][13] . Por outro lado, alguns estudos não encontraram associação consistente entre transtorno da compulsão alimentar periódica no pré-operatório e redução de peso após a cirurgia [14][15][16][17][18][19] . Tais discrepân-cias, em boa medida, se devem à ausência de conformidade entre os estudos com relação ao emprego de instrumentos de investigação 20 .…”

“…The questionnaire authors suggest that scores are grouped to act as signifiers of distress. In its current form, the HADS is divided into four ranges: normal (0-7), mild (8-10), moderate (11)(12)(13)(14)(15), and severe (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21) …”

“…EBWL < 20% was viewed as a failed surgical intervention [13]. However, evidence demonstrates that reducing EBWL by 5-10% can lead to significant reductions in the co-morbidities known to be associated with obesity such as cardiovascular disorders and diabetes, and for individuals who are obese these positive health benefits are unlikely to be achieved without surgical intervention [7,14,15].…”
