Chronic Course

Eating disorders affect about 5% of adolescent girls and young adult women. They are much less common among men. They typically begin in adolescence and may run a chronic course, interfering with psychological, physical, and social functioning. Three eating disorders are distinguished: (1) anorexia nervosa; (2) bulimia nervosa; and (3) a residual diagnostic category—the most common seen in routine clinical practice— termed ‘eating disorder not otherwise specified’ (eating disorder NOS). They all share a distinctive ‘core psychopathology’, the overevaluation of shape and weight, and patients frequently move between the categories, hence a case may be made for adopting a ‘transdiagnostic’ perspective....

In recent years, outstanding progress has been made in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiomyopathies. Genetics is emerging as a primary point in the diagnosis and management of these diseases. However, molecular genetic analyses are not yet included in routine clinical practice, mainly because of their elevated costs and execution time. A patient-based and patient-oriented clinical approach, coupled with new imaging techniques such as cardiac magnetic resonance, can be of great help in selecting patients for molecular genetic analysis and is crucial for a better characterisation of these diseases. This article will specifically address clinical, magnetic resonance and genetic aspects of the diagnosis and management of cardiomyopathies.
