Abstract

This article provides a systematic review of articles on quality of life (QoL) among individuals with eating disorders. A literature search was conducted using six databases. Manual searches were also performed in two specialized journals, covering the period from January 1975 to June 2008. The search strategies identified a total of 29,537 articles. Forty-one studies met the inclusion criteria, and 36 were analyzed in the present review. Patients with eating disorders showed reduced QoL as compared to normal controls and individuals with other psychiatric disorders. The mental health component of QoL showed greater impairment than the physical component. Patients with binge eating disorders showed reduced physical and psychological QoL. We identified few studies on QoL in bulimia nervosa-only patients. QoL assessment of anorexia nervosa patients showed a modest impact on the physical domain. However, this finding should be interpreted with caution, since it may be due to an artifact in the disorder's psychopathology rather than better health status per se.

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 10 January 2012.
All research outputs
#17,285,668
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Cadernos de Saúde Pública
#1,012
of 1,855 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#86,408
of 104,814 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cadernos de Saúde Pública
#11
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,855 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.2. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% 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 104,814 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
