Remission of loss of control eating and changes in components of the metabolic syndrome.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:Pediatric loss of control (LOC) eating prospectively predicts the worsening of metabolic syndrome components. However, it is unknown if remission of LOC eating is associated with improvements in metabolic health. Therefore, we conducted a secondary analysis of a trial that enrolled adolescent girls with LOC eating, examining whether LOC remission (vs. persistence) at end-of-treatment was associated with changes in metabolic syndrome components at 6-month follow-up. METHOD:One hundred three adolescent girls (age 14.5 ± 1.7 years; BMI-z 1.5 ± 0.3; 56.3% non-Hispanic White, 24.3% non-Hispanic Black) with elevated weight (75th-97th BMI %ile) and reported LOC eating were assessed for metabolic syndrome components at baseline and again six months following the interventions. The main effects of LOC status at end-of-treatment (persistence vs. remission) on metabolic syndrome components (waist circumference, lipids, glucose, and blood pressure) at 6-month follow-up were examined, adjusting for baseline age, depressive symptoms, LOC frequency, fat mass, and height, as well as race, change in height, change in fat mass, and the baseline value of each respective component. RESULTS:Youth with LOC remission at end-of-treatment had lower glucose (83.9 ± 6.4 vs. 86.5 ± 5.8 mg/dL; p = .02), higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (50.3 ± 11.8 vs. 44.8 ± 11.9 mg/dL; p = .01), and lower triglycerides (84.4 ± 46.2 vs. 96.9 ± 53.7 mg/dL; p = .02) at 6-month follow-up when compared with youth with persistent LOC, despite no baseline differences in these components. No other component significantly differed by LOC eating status (ps > .05). DISCUSSION:Reducing LOC eating in adolescent girls may have a beneficial impact on some components of the metabolic syndrome.

Project description:BackgroundCurrent evidence on management of impulse control disorders (ICDs) in Parkinson's disease (PD) remains scarce, and exploring modifiable risk factors is crucial.ObjectiveWe evaluated the profiles of ICDs in PD patients and aimed to determine the associations between ICDs, metabolic syndrome components and other clinical features.MethodsWe enrolled patients diagnosed with PD in this study and conducted comprehensive clinical assessments.ResultsWe recruited 39 PD patients with ICDs and 66 PD patients without ICDs. Out of the 39 patients with ICDs, 19 (48.7%) had one impulse control disorder, while 20 (51.3%) had two or more. The most commonly reported symptom of ICDs was compulsive eating (48.7%). Significant differences were observed between the PD patients with and without ICDs in terms of their HbA1c levels, history of diabetes mellitus, dopamine agonist use, levodopa equivalent dose of dopamine agonists (LED DA), and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) scores. HbA1c levels were significantly higher in the PD patients with compulsive eating. Stepwise logistic regression analyses were performed with the dependent variables of ICDs (yes/no) and compulsive eating (yes/no). Among the 105 PD patients, those with ICDs exhibited higher levels of HbA1c, HAMD score and LED DA than those without ICDs (p < 0.01). Among 39 PD patients with ICDs, those with compulsive eating exhibited higher levels of HbA1c (OR = 2.148, 95% CI = 1.004-4.594, p < 0.05). Among 105 PD patients, those with compulsive eating exhibited higher levels of HbA1c, LED DA and HAMD score (p < 0.05).ConclusionThis study provides insights into the profiles of ICDs in PD patients and their associations with various clinical features. Compulsive eating was the most common ICDs symptom reported. Notably, HbA1c levels were found to be higher in patients with compulsive eating, indicating that poor blood glucose control may be a potential risk factor for ICDs in PD. However, it should be noted that the higher HbA1c levels could also be a consequence of compulsive eating rather than a causal factor for ICDs in PD. Further research is needed to confirm the modifiable risk factors for ICDs in PD.
