مستخلص: A study conducted by the University of Rzeszow in Poland explored the relationship between food addiction (FA) and the physical and mental health status of adults with overweight and obesity. The study found that FA was more common among individuals up to 50 years old and was associated with higher BMI, body fat mass, diastolic blood pressure, and sedentary behavior. Additionally, 22.7% of participants with overweight and obesity had symptoms of depression. The researchers concluded that increasing physical activity may be particularly important in managing overweight or obesity and FA. Further research is needed to explore these relationships.

مستخلص: A recent report from Loyola University Medical Center discusses the correlation between psychological factors, obesity, serum cortisol, and C-reactive protein in patients with fibromyalgia diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain disorder that often co-occurs with obesity and OSA. The study found that patients with fibromyalgia and OSA had higher rates of anxiety and depression, particularly those with 25 or more medical diagnoses and a BMI over 30. Addressing psychological factors in patients with fibromyalgia and OSA is important due to high healthcare utilization in these individuals. [Extracted from the article]

مستخلص: A recent study conducted by researchers at the Faculty of Health Sciences in Alicante, Spain, explored the relationship between obesity, quality of life (QoL), and mental health. The study found that anthropometric variables, such as body fat accumulation, were linked to all QoL factors. Additionally, individuals with lower QoL were more likely to experience symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, and engage in emotional eating. The researchers concluded that integrating psychological support into obesity treatment strategies and using QoL questionnaires specific to people with obesity is crucial. This information emphasizes the importance of addressing mental health in obesity management. [Extracted from the article]

الشركة/الكيان: KING'S College London

مستخلص: Researchers from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience at King's College London have conducted a study on a new home-administered treatment for binge eating disorder (BED). The treatment combines transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a brain stimulation technique, with a training program that targets unhelpful patterns of attention around food. The study found that the treatment was feasible and potentially effective, with participants who received real tDCS with attention bias modification training (ABMT) experiencing significant reductions in binge eating episodes and improvements in mood and weight loss. The researchers believe that this home-based treatment could offer a new approach to treating BED and reach individuals who may find it difficult to access community-based treatment.

مستخلص: Riphah International University in Pakistan is conducting a clinical trial, NCT06442371, to examine the effects of combining high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with Quranic listening meditation on cardiovascular fitness and mental health in obese adults. The study will involve 52 obese adults aged 18-45 years who have no prior experience with Quranic listening meditation. Participants will undergo HIIT sessions three days per week for six weeks, either with or without Quranic listening meditation. The trial aims to measure outcomes such as dyspnea, body mass index, peak VO2, heart rate recovery, depression, anxiety, stress, blood pressure, and blood lipid profile. The trial is currently recruiting and is expected to be completed by July 2024. [Extracted from the article]

مستخلص: A recent study conducted in Turkey examined the eating attitudes of migraine patients and their relationship to anxiety disorders. The study found that patients with migraine had higher scores on measures of eating attitudes, depression, and anxiety compared to a control group. The results suggest that there may be a link between migraine and eating disorders, and that depression and anxiety are common among migraine patients. This research provides valuable insights into the potential relationship between migraine, eating habits, and mental health, which could inform future therapeutic approaches.

الشركة/الكيان: UNIVERSITY of California, San Francisco

مستخلص: A recent study conducted by the University of California has found that perceived social isolation is associated with negative health outcomes, including altered eating behaviors, obesity, and psychological symptoms. The study focused on healthy, premenopausal female participants and used functional magnetic resonance imaging to measure brain reactivity to food cues. The results showed that participants with higher perceived social isolation reported higher fat mass percentage, lower diet quality, increased maladaptive eating behaviors, and poor mental health. The study suggests that social isolation is linked to altered neural responses to food cues, which may contribute to adverse health consequences. The findings highlight the importance of holistic interventions to mitigate the effects of social isolation on health. [Extracted from the article]

مستخلص: A recent study conducted by the Laureate Institute for Brain Research in Tulsa, Oklahoma, explored the association between physical health factors and major depressive disorder (MDD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). The study found that individuals with MDD and MDD + GAD exhibited impaired eating behaviors, such as higher disinhibition and hunger scores, compared to healthy controls. However, metabolic hormone levels, including leptin, insulin, and adiponectin, were found to be intact in these individuals. The findings suggest that difficulties in regulating eating behaviors may contribute to functional impairment and increased disease burden in individuals with MDD and GAD.

مستخلص: A recent report from Heidelberg University Hospital in Germany discusses the views of mental health professionals on the use of digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) for eating disorders. The study conducted qualitative interviews with 24 German mental health professionals who treat patients with eating disorders. The professionals expressed positive attitudes towards DMHIs, particularly in terms of low-threshold access for patients and useful functionalities such as digital meal records, skills training, and psychoeducation. However, concerns were raised about the integration of DMHIs into routine care, particularly for patients with severe anorexia nervosa or suicidality. The study concludes that targeted DMHIs are needed, especially for blended care concepts. [Extracted from the article]

مستخلص: A recent study conducted by Harbin Medical University in China examined the association between high body mass index (BMI) and subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) in young patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). The study found that among the 1,289 young patients with MDD, 58.26% had SCH. Patients with SCH had higher BMI levels, increased prevalence of overweight and obesity, and higher levels of certain lipids. The study suggests that obesity and overweight may be associated with SCH in young patients with MDD, emphasizing the importance of regular thyroid function assessment in this population.
