We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of anorexia nervosa (AN) using a
stringently defined phenotype. Analysis of phenotypic variability led to the identification of a …

Genetic correlations suggest a coexisting genetic predisposition to both low leptin levels and
risk for anorexia nervosa (AN). To investigate the causality and direction of these …

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a complex disorder with a strong genetic component.
Comorbidities are frequent and there is substantial overlap with other disorders. The lack of …

Background Anorexia nervosa is a multifactorial eating disorder that manifests with self‐
starvation, extreme anxiety, hyperactivity, and amenorrhea. Long‐term effects include organ …

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder presenting with dangerously
low body weight, and a deep and persistent fear of gaining weight. To date, only one …

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a complex and heritable eating disorder characterized by
dangerously low body weight. Neither candidate gene studies nor an initial genome-wide …

Objective Although low weight is a key factor contributing to the high mortality in anorexia
nervosa (AN), it is unclear how AN patients sustain low weight compared with bulimia …

Polygenic factors are relevant for the genetic predispositions to the eating disorder anorexia
nervosa (AN). The most recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) for AN comprised …

The etiology of anorexia nervosa (AN) remains elusive. Recent genome-wide association
studies identified the first genes liked to AN which reached genome-wide significance …

Purpose Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder presenting with
dangerously low body weight, and a deep and persistent fear of gaining weight. Up to now …
