Abstract

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe pathology on account of the high levels of associated morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to assess whether time in somatic intensive care unit, justified by a patient's somatic condition in the course of hospital care, has any relationship with patient outcome in terms of mortality in the long term. 195 patients were hospitalised for AN between April 1996 and May 2002, 97 were re-assessed 9 years later on average. Out of 195 patients hospitalised for AN between April 1996 and May 2002, 29 had required transfer to intensive care. Mortality at 9 years was 20 times higher in the group having been transferred to intensive care, irrespective of the duration of follow-up. The clinical seriousness of the somatic condition during hospitalisation for AN is a risk factor for excess mortality in the medium term.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 June 2018.
All research outputs
#21,498,958
of 23,999,200 outputs
Outputs from Eating and Weight Disorders - Studies on Anorexia, Bulimia and Obesity
#882
of 1,078 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#362,557
of 427,233 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Eating and Weight Disorders - Studies on Anorexia, Bulimia and Obesity
#10
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,999,200 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,078 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.2. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 427,233 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
