Abstract ObjectivesAnalyze the influence of Binge Eating Disorder (BED) and symptoms of depression and anxiety on anthropometric and body composition changes over five years after bariatric surgery in patients with obesity.MethodsEvaluation of 118 individuals undergoing bariatric surgery, divided into two groups: Group 1: individuals with BED; Group 2: individuals without BED. The individuals were submitted to anthropometric and body composition evaluation, and analysis of the presence of BED, depression, and anxiety according to the DSM-V and using validated questionnaires. The Kolmogorovi-Smirnov, t-test, Fisher’s, chi-square, and ANOVA were used for statistical analysis.ResultsThe groups with BED (N=61, 51,7%) and without BED (N=57, 48,3%) did not differ from each other for all sociodemographic assessed variables (p>0.05) and had similar changes in waist circumference and body composition over five years after bariatric surgery (p>0.05). On the other hand, only patients with BED had severe depression (13,11%, p=0.0079) and had a higher frequency of moderate (22.95%, p=0.0022) and severe (14.75%, p=0.0022) anxiety in the preoperative period of bariatric surgery. In addition, only the group with BED had increased weight and increased BMI in the fifth year after bariatric surgery (p<0.05).ConclusionPatients with BED had more intense symptoms of depression and anxiety, and this disorder may reappear in the postoperative period of bariatric surgery and contribute to weight gain and an increase in BMI.Level of evidence: III (evidence obtained from case-control analytic study).

Despite considerable comorbidity between mood disorders, binge eating disorder (BED), and obesity, the underlying mechanisms remain unresolved. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine models by which internalizing behaviors of depression and anxiety influence food intake in overweight/obese women. Thirty-two women (15 BED, 17 controls) participated in a laboratory eating-episode and completed questionnaires assessing symptoms of anxiety and depression. Path analysis was used to test mediation and moderation models to determine the mechanisms by which internalizing symptoms influenced kilocalorie (kcal) intake. The BED group endorsed significantly more symptoms of depression (10.1 versus 4.8,P=0.005) and anxiety (8.5 versus 2.7,P=0.003). Linear regression indicated that BED diagnosis and internalizing symptoms accounted for 30% of the variance in kcal intake. Results from path analysis suggested that BED mediates the influence of internalizing symptoms on total kcal intake (empiricalP<0.001). The associations between internalizing symptoms and food intake are best described as operating indirectly through a BED diagnosis. This suggests that symptoms of depression and anxiety influence whether one engages in binge eating, which influences kcal intake. Greater understanding of the mechanisms underlying the associations between mood, binge eating, and food intake will facilitate the development of more effective prevention and treatment strategies for both BED and obesity.

Abstract Objectives: Verify the frequency of polymorphisms related to obesity and Binge Eating Disorder (BED) in DRD2 and BDNF genes in patients undergoing bariatric surgery with weight regain above 10% of the weight lost. Methods: Evaluation of 177 individuals undergoing bariatric surgery with weight regain, divided into two groups: Group 1: individuals with BED; Group 2: individuals without BED. The individuals were submitted to anthropometric evaluation, analysis of the presence of BED using a validated questionnaire, and blood collection for genotyping of the polymorphisms, rs6265 (BDNF) and rs1800497 (DRD2). The Kolmogorovi-Smirnov, t-test, chi-square, Mann Whitney, Pearson correlation were used for statistical analysis. Results: CC genotypes for rs1800497 polymorphism, and GG for rs6265 polymorphism were more frequent in patients without the disorder. The presence of at least one T allele (DRD2) and at least one A allele (BDNF) was more frequent in patients with BED. The combination of AA + GA + TT + TC genotypes prevailed in patients with the disorder. Conclusions: The CC (DRD2) and GG (BDNF) genotypes suggest protection for patients against BED, while genotypes that have at least one T allele (DRD2) and one A allele (BDNF) suggest greater risk and appear to act in synergism.Level of evidence: III (evidence obtained from case-control analytic study).

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Eating pathologies among bariatric surgery candidates are common and associated with adverse surgical outcomes, including weight regain and low quality of life. However, their assessment is made difficult by the great variety and inconsistent use of standardized measures. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this review was to synthesize current knowledge on the prevalence of binge eating disorder (BED) in presurgical patients and to make a critical appraisal of assessment tools for BED. METHODS: A search was conducted on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases from January 1994 to March 2017. Data were extracted, tabulated and summarized using a narrative approach. RESULTS: A total of 21 observational studies were reviewed for data extraction and analysis. Prevalence of BED in bariatric populations ranged from 2% to 53%. Considerable variation in patient characteristics and in BED assessment measures was evident among the studies. In addition, several methodological weaknesses were recognized in most of the studies. Ten different psychometric instruments were used to assess BED. Clinical interviews were used in only 12 studies, though this is the preferred tool to diagnose BED. CONCLUSION: Study heterogeneity accounted for the variability of the results from different centers and methodological flaws such as insufficient sample size and selection bias impaired the evidence on the magnitude of BED in surgical settings. For the sake of comparability and generalizability of the findings in future studies, researchers must recruit representative samples of treatment-seeking candidates for bariatric surgery and systematically apply standard instruments for the assessment of BED.

AbstractObjectiveThe present study sought to: 1) assess the prevalence of Binge Eating Disorder (BED) and abnormal eating behaviors in bariatric surgery candidates; 2) compare patients with and without BED as regards to eating disturbances, psychological characteristics, and health status; 3) individuate which factors were significantly related to binge eating severity.MethodsSixty-three preoperative patients (17 males and 46 females) were screened by means of an ad hoc socio-demographic schedule, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Eating Disorders Inventory-3, the Binge Eating Scale, and the General Health Questionnaire-28. BED diagnosis was performed through a clinical interview.ResultsBED and disordered eating, such as episodes of binge eating, sense of lack of control over eating and inappropriate compensatory behaviors, appear common in patients undergoing weight loss surgery. Significant differences between BED and non-BED subjects in relation to eating disturbances and psychological characteristics emerged. Multiple regression analysis revealed that only emotional dys-regulation significantly predicted binge eating vulnerability.ConclusionThe recognition of factors involved in the development and maintenance of disordered eating in bariatric patients may support the choice of particular therapeutic strategies and improve bariatric surgery outcome. Further studies on this issue would be useful.
