Young Patients with Anorexia Nervosa: The Contribution of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Traumatic Events

Abstract: Background and Objectives: Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a complex disorder whose etiopathogenesis involves both biological and environmental factors.

Materials and Methods: Sixty-four patients with AN (<… Show more

“…From a clinical perspective, the patients who experienced traumatic events in this study had a more impaired psychopathological profily than the others, reportingmore severe ED psychopathology and psychological symptoms and a poorer quality of life. This evidence is in line with the recent literature from various different countries that has revealed a more complex profile in patients with traumatic experiences and various EDs (Backholm et al, 2013;Brewerton et al, 2020;Longo et al, 2021), and it corroborates the evidence of a specific adverse effect of trauma with a possible specific ecophenotype for ED patients with traumatic experiences (Chami et al, 2019). We confirmed the presence of a poorer quality of life and an impaired psychosocial domain (Backholm et al, 2013;Brewerton et al, 2020) in ED patients with traumatic events, supporting the importance of evaluating traumatic history in ED patients (Brewerton, 2019).…”

“…Si consideramos el tipo específico de situación adversa sea el abuso físico, sea el emocional que el sexual padecido en la infancia se han asociado a un IMC elevado o bajo y a alta insatisfacción corporal; más específicamente, el abuso emocional se reporta con más frecuencia en personas con bajo peso, mientras que el abuso físico y el sexual se relacionan con un peso alto Kothary et al 2015;Richardson et al, 2014;Vartanian et al, 2018;Tagay et al, 2014;Roenholt et al, 2012;Longo et al, 2020).

“…En todos los estudios revisados la correlación descrita es positiva excepto en el de Villarroel et al (2012) que describe una asociación negativa entre abuso físico e insatisfacción corporal. También se ha encontrado asociación positiva entre aco- so escolar, violencia intrafamiliar e IMC elevado (Mitchison et al, 2018;Hicks White et al, 2018;Longo et al, 2020), violencia en la pareja y aumento de la preocupación entorno a la silueta (Kothari et al, 2015), estrés derivado del combate y riesgo de obesidad . Todos los estudios han evaluado diferentes tipos de situaciones adversas y solo 1 (Groff Stephens y Wilke, 2016) se ha centrado exclusivamente en los efectos de la violencia sexual encontrando asociación positiva con conductas purgativas mientras que la alteración de la imagen corporal parece ser una variable independiente que predice bajo peso.…”
