Active clinical trials for "Anorexia"

The purpose of this research study is to determine the importance and level of physical activity in people with Anorexia Nervosa.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the hormone dynamics in women with anorexia nervosa and hypothalamic amenorrhea is related to bone loss in those populations.

The aim of this study is to determine serum concentrations of adiponectin (ApN), leptin and ghrelin in different stages of anorectic patients and to evaluate their relationships between biochemical, hormonal and anthropometric parameters.

This study will compare the concentrations of serotonin transporter in the brains of women with a history of anorexia nervosa who are currently maintaining a normal weight to those of healthy women of normal weight.

The purpose of this study is to examine whether body fat distribution changes that occur with weight gain in women recovering from anorexia nervosa are transient or persistent, and if they are associated with other features of Metabolic Syndrome.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between age-related anorexia and personality traits in elderly individuals with comorbidities.

This study is aimed to determine clinical characteristics of patients with anorexia nervosa and outcome of treatment at Sirirraj Hospital.

Etude d'épidémiologie clinique multicentrique (IMM), naturalistique, comparant un échantillon clinique à un échantillon de témoins issus de la population générale. Cette recherche se fixe pour objectif principal de déterminer, sur un large échantillon de patients pris en charge pour anorexie mentale dans des unités de soins spécialisées, les caractéristiques de l'activité physique et la dépendance à l'exercice physique en comparaison avec des sujets issus de la population générale appariés pour l'âge et le sexe. Nous faisons l'hypothèse que les patients anorexiques mentaux sont plus actifs et plus dépendants à l'exercice physique que des sujets de la population générale de même âge et de même sexe.

Body Image distortion is a key diagnostic feature for Anorexia Nervosa. Patients suffering from Anorexia Nervosa tend to perceive themselves as fatter than they are. This bias might be at the origin of a reinforcement of anorectic behavior which might alter medical care. The objective of this study is to identify neural correlates of self-recognition in Anorexia Nervosa. Patients are hypothesized to activate the self-recognition network when seeing images of a fatter body shape than their own.

The primary objective is to obtain stool samples from pre-therapy subjects already undergoing evaluation for an H. pylori infection by upper esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and gastric biopsy.
