Differential Neural Correlates of Set-Shifting in the Bingeing-Purging and Restrictive Subtypes of Anorexia Nervosa Vrije Universiteit Brussel Universiteit Gent
In this study, possible differences in the neural correlates of set-shifting abilities between the restrictive (AN-R) and bingeing/purging (AN-BP) subtypes of anorexia nervosa have been explored. Three groups of participants performed a set-shifting task during functional magnetic resonance imaging: patients with AN-R (N = 16), AN-BP (N = 13) and healthy control participants (N = 15). As in a typical set-shifting experiment, participants had ...

Forearm bone mineralization in recently diagnosed female adolescents with a premenarchal onset of anorexia nervosa Vrije Universiteit Brussel
OBJECTIVE: Data available on bone mineralization by peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) in adolescents with an early onset anorexia nervosa (AN) is limited. We investigated whether a disturbed bone mineralization can be observed at the distal radius in recently diagnosed female adolescents with AN and a premenarchal onset of this disease.
METHOD: Twenty-four premenarchal patients with AN and 22 healthy females which ...
Acute gastric dilatation causing acute limb inschemia in an anorexia nervosa patient. Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Acute gastric dilatation causing acute limb ischemia in an anorexia nervosa patient Vrije Universiteit Brussel
BACKGROUND: Acute gastric dilatation is a rare but severe complication of anorexia nervosa. Gastric dilatation causing abdominal compartment syndrome with lower-limb ischemia is even less common. This case report illustrates the importance of a holistic clinical approach of every patient presenting to the emergency department (ED), even when the reason for admittance is organ specific.
CASE REPORT: We report the case of a young female ...
