## Abstract ## Objective To examine whether gray and white matter volumes are preferentially reduced and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) increased with starvation in patients with anorexia nervosa compared with healthy controls and to determine what changes occur with weight normalization. ## Method
Objective: To assess the role of carnitine in the skeletal myopathy present in anorexia nervosa. Method: Serum levels of free and total carnitine were measured in a group of severely underweight women with anorexia nervosa and skeletal myopathy before and after an inpatient refeeding program. Result
Patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) are suited to study the effects of both an exceedingly low and high leptin secretion on energy expenditure and metabolism, because their serum leptin levels are below the reference range of healthy controls during the acute stage and above the reference range upon
Plasma testosterone was measured in three males and thirty-six female patients before and after treatment for anorexia nervosa. Low testosterone values were found before treatment, and weight gain was associated with an increase to normal levels. LH, and to a lesser extent FSH, increased during trea
