Abstract
PREVALENCE OF DISORDERED EATING BEHAVIOURS IN MENTAL ILLNESS-A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Author(s): Aditi Hombali, Mithila Mahesh, Sherilyn Chang, Hui Lin Ong, Edimansyah Abdin, Siow Ann Chong, Mythily SubramaniamObjective
Disordered eating behaviours are more prevalent and generally are subtle as compared to eating disorders. The objective was to review the empirical studies that have determined the prevalence of disordered eating behaviours in patients with psychiatric illness.
Method
This review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. We searched Ovid (MEDLINE), EMBASE, PsycINFO (OVID) and web of science databases from inception to April 2017. Three reviewers independently screened the citations and included if they reported the prevalence of disordered eating behaviours in patients with primary diagnosis of mental illnesses (i.e. mood disorders, anxiety disorders, substance use disorder, and schizophrenia spectrum disorder). Data- extraction was performed using a pre-piloted data extraction form and a narrative synthesis of the data of prevalence of eating disorders was carried out.Â
Results
Thirteen studies were included in this review. The evidence suggests that the individuals seeking treatment for various mental illnesses endorsed having disordered eating behaviours such as binge eating, fasting, purging (use of diuretics, diet pills and laxatives; vomiting and excessive exercise), loss of control over eating, bulimic tendency and anorexia. The prevalence range of binge eating (19.0% - 44.0%), bulimic tendency (4.4% – 13.2%), anorexia (19.8%), fasting (4.0% - 40%), laxative use (1.0% - 11.1%), diuretics use (1.0% - 1.6%), vomiting (1.6% - 8.6%), diet pills (36.0%), loss of control over eating (17.0%) and excessive exercise (1.0% - 32.0%) were reported in the included studies.
Conclusion
This review provides evidence on the prevalence of disordered eating behaviours in a wide spectrum of psychiatric illnesses. The results of this review should be interpreted with caution due to limitations. There is a clear need for studies with larger sample size to confirm the findings and further the understanding of prevalence of specific type of disordered eating behaviours in psychiatric populations.
