Shuba. Mental and non-mental disorders in circadian eating disorders

The aim of the study was to determine mental and non-mental disorders in individuals with circadian eating disorders, in particular, in the presence of night eating syndrome (NES) in patients with compulsive overeating (binge eating) and nervous bulimia (1-year observation), which in the future will help to develop and improve modern methods of treating for these nosologies and their complications enhancing medical and social prognoses.

Materials and methods. Concomitant mental and non-mental nosologies were studied in the presence of night eating syndrome in individ

uals with compulsive overeating and in individuals with nervous bulimia (71 people): (1) female patients suffering from compulsive overeating with NES (30 people), (2) male patients suffering from compulsive overeating with NES (21 people), (3) female patients suffering from nervous bulimia with NES (20). The examination included a set of anamnestic, anthropometric and pathopsychological methods. Statistical processing of the obtained results was carried out using the software packages Statistica 10.0, SPSS 22.0.

Results. Concomitant mental and non-mental disorders were found in individuals with compulsive overeating and nervous bulimia in the presence of circadian eating disorders during their dynamic assessment over 1 year. Moreover, comorbid mental disorders were significantly more often identified in female respondents with nervous bulimia; comorbid non-mental disorders were significantly more often identified in male respondents with NES in the presence of compulsive overeating.

Conclusion. Evaluation of the presence of circadian eating disorders in individuals with compulsive overeating and nervous bulimia makes it possible to predict the detection of concomitant mental and non-mental disorders within 1 year, which will subsequently help to provide timely prevention and treatment of severe disabling diseases and complications of these nosologies.
