Eating Disorders

摘要

Eating disorders are complex illnesses with profound psychosocial and physical consequences, including high rates of mortality. Despite growing recognition of their prevalence and severity, eating disorders remain underdiagnosed and undertreated. This review provides up-to-date information on eating disorder diagnosis, including tips for early recognition and evaluation, along with an overview of potential complications and evidence-based treatments. Pediatricians, in particular, play an important role in providing patients and their families with the care, resources, and guidance they need to reach and maintain recovery.
