Eating - Pathology and Causes
Eating - Pathology and Causes reflects on current problems related to eating disorders and obesity. It includes six chapters that address such topics as the impact of media and social networks on the prevalence of eating disorders among youth, epidemiological issues and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the development and aggravation of eating disorders, nutritional therapy and obesity, and lifestyle, genetic, and psychological factors of obesity.
Psychosomatic Medicine
Modern psychosomatic medicine is a comprehensive framework for a holistic (biopsychosocial) perspective of illnesses and patient care. It highlights the influence of psychosocial factors on health, the interaction between psychosocial and biological factors in the course and outcome of diseases, and a whole perspective with respect to treatments. This book discusses holistic approaches to both organic and psychopathological diseases. Over three sections, authors address psychosomatic approaches to fibromyalgia, palliative care, anxiety and depression, obesity, and traumatic stress disorders.
Anorexia and Bulimia Nervosa
The prevalence of eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia nervosa is growing, and these disorders are affecting adolescents and young adults at increasingly younger ages. This has led to a greater number of patients presenting to health services. Although novel therapeutic approaches have been introduced in recent decades, the mortality rates of patients with anorexia and bulimia nervosa remain alarmingly high. The course of anorexia nervosa in particular is often chronic and can lead to persistent disability. This book covers the clinical features and symptoms, neurobiology, pathophysiology, and current and potential future treatment options for both anorexia and bulimia nervosa. It also highlights the important aspects of support for families and their perspectives on these disorders.
Recent Updates in Eating Disorders
Recent Updates in Eating Disorders raises recent relevant issues about eating disorders and obesity that have led us to speak of an 'eating disorder society', especially among adolescents who are at the most vulnerable stage of life. It is important not only to be aware of the behaviours that occur before the emergence of an eating disorder, but also, from a clinical perspective, to talk about diagnostic criteria. It is also important to specify, as accurately as possible, the severity criteria and the presence of comorbidity, in order to establish better protocols for therapeutic action. We also address the issue of social media networks and their influence on the development of eating disorders (and many other problems). While this work is neither exhaustive nor extensive, we nevertheless hope it will be of interest and will open up further lines of study and research in the near future.
