Abstract Anorexia nervosa (AN) is associated with very low levels of leptin, a cytokine secreted by adipose tissue and known to suppress appetite. Leptin may play a permissive role in onset of puberty and in resumption of gonadal function in conditions of undernutrition. The soluble leptin receptor (sOB-R) is the main leptin binding protein, and the ratio of serum leptin to sOB-R provides a measure of the free leptin index (FLI), which may be a more accurate determinant of leptin function. Determinants of sOB-R and FLI have not been examined in an adolescent population. We examined levels of sOB-R, leptin, and FLI, and body composition and hormonal determinants of these variables in 23 adolescent girls with AN and 21 healthy adolescent girls of comparable maturity prospectively over 1 yr. Measures of insulin resistance and adiponectin were also examined. We determined changes in levels of sOB-R, leptin, and FLI with weight recovery (defined as an increase in body mass index of ≥10%, n = 11), and with resumption of menstrual cycles (n = 13). Girls with AN had significantly higher levels of sOB-R (P = 0.0008) and significantly lower levels of leptin and FLI (P < 0.0001 for both) than healthy controls, and levels of FLI were reduced more than levels of leptin in girls with AN compared with controls. An inverse correlation was noted between levels of leptin and sOB-R for the group as a whole (r = −0.64, P < 0.0001) but not in girls with AN considered alone. The most important predictor of levels of sOB-R was cortisol in the group as a whole (r = 0.61, P < 0.0001) and in girls with AN considered alone (r = 0.66, P = 0.0008). Other independent predictors of sOB-R levels for the entire group were percent body fat (r = −0.44, P = 0.003) and levels of IGF-I (r = −0.37, P = 0.01). The most important predictors of leptin and FLI were body mass index and percent body fat. An inverse relationship was noted between measures of insulin resistance and sOB-R levels, whereas a positive association was noted between these measures and leptin and FLI. Adiponectin values did not differ in girls with AN compared with healthy controls and did not correlate with sOB-R, leptin, or FLI. Weight recovery resulted in significant decreases in levels of the sOB-R (24.7 ± 1.7 to 17.6 ± 1.2 U/ml, P = 0.004), and increases in levels of leptin (4.4 ± 1.0 to 13.7 ± 2.9 μg/liter, P = 0.02). Resumption of menstrual function, but not weight recovery alone, was associated with significant increases in FLI (0.19 ± 0.04 to 0.50 ± 0.09 μg/U × 10−3, P = 0.02). We demonstrate an increase in levels of sOB-R and a decrease in the FLI in adolescent girls with AN, and also demonstrate that cortisol is the most important predictor of levels of sOB-R in this condition. Levels of leptin and FLI, conversely, are primarily predicted by body composition. Weight recovery is associated with a decrease in sOB-R and an increase in leptin. Resumption of menses is associated with significant increases in the FLI, suggesting that free leptin may be an important determinant of menstrual recovery.

The Ideal

ABSTRAKMasa remaja merupakan masa perubahan dramatis dalam diri seseorang. Salah satu perubahan yang terjadi adalah perubahan komposisi tubuh, terutama akumulasi lemak tubuh pada remaja puteri. Dengan adanya akumulasi lemak tubuh tersebut, ada anggapan bahwa mereka tidak memiliki tubuh semenarik yang diinginkan. Hal ini akan mendorong remaja puteri mencari jalan keluar agar memiliki tampilan fisik yang ideal, salah satunya adalah dengan melakukan perubahan kebiasaan makan yang umumnya menyimpang. Kebiasaan makan yang tidak benar itu dapat mengakibatkan terjadinya gangguan makan atau eating disorder yang dapat berdampak buruk bagi remaja. Eating disorders (ED) merupakan gangguan mental yang meskipun berhubungan dengan pola makan dan berat badan, gangguan tersebut bukanlah mengenai makanan, tetapi mengenai perasaan dan ekspresi diri. Pada umumnya, penderita ED adalah mereka yang memiliki kepercayaan diri rendah. Terdapat dua macam ED, yaitu anorexia nervosa dan bulimia nervosa. Kedua gangguan tersebut mempunyai tujuan yang sama, yaitu menguruskan badan. ABSTRACTAdolescence is a time of dramatic change in a person. One of the changes that occur are changes in body composition, especially the accumulation of body fat in girls. Given the accumulation of body fat, there is the assumption that they do not have a body as attractive as desired. This will encourage the girls find a way out in order to have the ideal physical appearance, one is to change eating habits are generally distorted. Improper eating habits can result in eating disorders or disordered eating can be bad for teens. Eating disorders (ED) is a mental disorder even though associated with diet and weight, the disorder is not about food, but about feelings and self-expression. In general, patients with ED are those who have low confidence. There are two kinds of ED, namely anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. Both of these disorders have the same goal, which is to lose weight.

Abstract Background Anorexia Nervosa (AN) is a complex psychiatric disorder that can lead to specific somatic complications. Heart abnormalities are frequently reported, while their frequency and associated factors in severely malnourished AN patients remain poorly defined. Objectives This study aimed to characterize echocardiographic abnormalities in severely malnourished AN patients and to assess associated clinical, biological and related body composition features. Methods Between January 2013 and January 2015, all severely malnourished adult patients with AN (Mental Disorders, 4th Edn.-DSM IVr) were included in a monocentric study performed in in a highly specialized AN inpatient unit. Electrocardiogram (ECG) and echocardiography were used to assess both heart rhythm and function. All inpatients underwent a Doppler echocardiography procedure after undergoing combined blood volume adjustment, micronutrients deficiencies supplementation and electrolyte disorders correction. Right Ventricular (RV) and Left Ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic functions were collected and compared to 29 healthy normal subjects in a control group. Results One hundred and 24 patients (119 (96%) women, 5 (4%) men) with a mean age of 30.1 ± 11 years old and an average Body Mass Index (BMI) of 12 kg/m2 were included. Ninety patients (73%) had been diagnosed with AN Restrictive type (AN-R), 34 (27%) an AN Binge eating/Purging type (AN-BP). Eighteen patients (15%) disclosed an abnormal Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) (< 52% for male and < 54% for female). LVEF impairment was associated with AN-BP patients (p < 0.017) and hypertransaminasemia (AST and/or ALT ≥2 N) (p < 0.05). Left Ventricular mass (LV mass) and Left Ventricular End Diastolic Diameter (LVEDD) were significantly reduced in patients (p < 0.001, p < 0.001). Left and right ventricular tissue Doppler Imaging Velocities (TDI) peak were reduced in patients: Septal and Lateral LV Sm velocities peaks respectively 10 ± 2 cm/s (vs 14 ± 2 cm/s in controls, p < 0.001), 12 ± 3 cm/s (vs 16 ± 3 cm/s in controls, p < 0.001), basal RV Sm velocity peaks at 14 ± 3 cm/s (vs 19 ± 3 cm/s in controls, p < 0.001). Additionally, LV and RV diastolic velocity peaks were reduced: LV septal and lateral velocity peaks were respectively 13 ± 3 cm/s (vs 18 ± 2 cm/s p < 0.001), 12 ± 3 cm/s (vs 22 ± 4 cm/s, p < 0.001) and RV diastolic velocity peaks at 14 ± 3 cm/s (vs 21 ± 4 cm/s p < 0.001). LV diastolic velocity TDI peaks were significantly associated with hypertransaminasemia (p < 0.05) and tended to be associated with a low all body Fat-Free Mass Index (FFMI) (using Dual-energy X- ray Absorptiometry (DXA) (HOLOGICQDR 4500) (p = 0.056). Thirty-four patients (27%) had a pericardial effusion and were significantly associated with a decreased all body FFMI (p < 0.036). Conclusion Heart abnormalities are frequent in malnourished patients with AN, particularly in AN-BP type. Both liver enzymes and body composition abnormalities tended to be associated with heart dysfunction (non-significant association). Prospective studies are needed to better characterize and describe the evolution of cardiac abnormalities during the refeeding period and subsequent weight restoration.
