Satiety responses in eating disorders.
Appetite and satiety responses in a test meal paradigm were studied in six anorexia nervosa patients (four had bingeing and purging behaviors) and in nine normal control women. The anorexic patients were distinguished from normal controls by the amounts of food taken and by the pattern of the hunger and fullness responses to the test meal. Possible explanations for these findings are discussed.
