[Disorders of eating behavior: recent research and controversial results].
The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive profile of research developments in the field of eating disorders. Eating disorders may be defined as a multidisciplinary field, not only because diverse specialist disciplines are required for treatment, but also because the need to establish ad hoc Eating Disorders Units comprised of psychiatrists, internists, dietologists and endocrinologists has become evident. New research data, collected by use of informatics-based systems, are presented.
