BACKGROUND Interactive mobile technologies (IMB) are viewed as a promising opportunity to provide support in treatment for patients’ with eating disorders. The authors analyzed papers to find out the patterns of research domains in cognitive-behavioral therapy using interactive mobile technologies and eating disorder treatments. The development of interactive mobile technologies in eating disorder treatments was enhanced significantly during the last decade. Therefore this emerging research field has been found interesting and attractive to keep it in the research agenda. Consequently, the author planned various research settings for current and further studies. OBJECTIVE This research aims to explore the scientific patterns of interactive mobile technologies for cognitive-behavioral treatment for individuals with eating disorders in scholarly publications and analyze the findings to suggest further studies in an emerging research field. METHODS The bibliometric analysis employed such as identifying publication patterns, most important keywords, and trends for the subjects and fields for the period of the last decade (2010 to 2021). In this study, research questions were formed based on the relevant literature. The author concentrated on highly ranked sources, the data retrieved from the known databases, and the study conducted with the proven bibliometric approach, RESULTS A total of 875 studies were found concerning the research domains and retrieved from the LENS database. The vast majority of the papers were written in the English language by 100 authors/co-authors from 70 different countries, leading with the United Kingdom, then followed by the USA, Australia, Spain, Germany and Sweden. Descriptive characteristics The vast majority of the papers were written in the English language by 100 authors/co-authors from 70 different countries, leading with the United Kingdom, then followed by the USA, Australia, Spain, Germany and Sweden. CONCLUSIONS The research revealed that, although the early years of publication record shown as low, recent years (from 2016) represent an overall increase in research domains. The main contribution of the findings indicates that IBM, in combination with in-person cognitive-behavioral therapy for eating disorders, increases the efficiency of health intervention, including reducing essential symptoms and improving life quality. Besides, IBM can be used as a supportive tool in managing diet, body dissatisfaction, stress, and sleep disturbance. This paper would be useful for researchers to obtain an overview of the publication trends on research domains to be concerned for further studies and shows the potential gaps in those fields.

Objectives(1) To estimate weight change from a low-carbohydrate diabetes prevention programme (LC-DPP) and (2) to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of an LC-DPP.Research designSingle-arm, mixed methods (ie, integration of quantitative and qualitative data) pilot study.SettingPrimary care clinic within a large academic medical centre in the USA.ParticipantsAdults with pre-diabetes and Body Mass Index of ≥25 kg/m2.InterventionWe adapted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP)—an evidence-based, low-fat dietary intervention—to teach participants to follow a very low-carbohydrate diet (VLCD). Participants attended 23 group-based classes over 1 year.Outcome measuresPrimary outcome measures were (1) weight change and (2) percentage of participants who achieved ≥5% wt loss. Secondary outcome measures included intervention feasibility and acceptability (eg, attendance and qualitative interview feedback).ResultsOur enrolment target was 22. One person dropped out before a baseline weight was obtained; data from 21 individuals were analysed. Mean weight loss in kilogram was 4.3 (SD 4.8) at 6 months and 4.9 (SD 5.8) at 12 months. Mean per cent body weight changes were 4.5 (SD 5.0) at 6 months and 5.2 (SD 6.0) at 12 months; 8/21 individuals (38%) achieved ≥5% wt loss at 12 months. Mean attendance was 10.3/16 weekly sessions and 3.4/7 biweekly or monthly sessions. Among interviewees (n=14), three factors facilitated VLCD adherence: (1) enjoyment of low-carbohydrate foods, (2) diminished hunger and cravings and (3) health benefits beyond weight loss. Three factors hindered VLCD adherence: (1) enjoyment of high-carbohydrate foods, (2) lack of social support and (3) difficulty preplanning meals.ConclusionsAn LC-DPP is feasible, acceptable and may be an effective option to help individuals with pre-diabetes to lose weight. Data from this pilot will be used to plan a fully powered randomised controlled trial of weight loss among NDPP versus LC-DPP participants.Trial registration numberNCT03258918.

Eating disorders affect about five million Americans every year. There are three different eating disorders: anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder. Eating disorders are complex conditions deriving from a complex interplay of long-standing behavioural, emotional, psychological, interpersonal, and social factors. The neuronal circuits that control the ingestion of food are mainly related to catecholaminergic, serotoninergic, and peptidergic systems. In this respect, while serotonin, dopamine and prostaglandin promote the ingestion of food, by contrast, neuropeptide Y, noradrenaline, γ‎-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and opioid peptides inhibit food ingestion, thus causing the development of eating disorders (1). Eating disorders typically occur in adolescent girls or young women, although 5–15% of cases of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa and 40% of cases of binge eating disorder occur in boys and men. Approximately 3% of young women are affected with these disorders, and probably twice that number has clinically important variants. Although early disorders mostly develop in adolescence or young adulthood, they can occur after the age of 40 years and are increasingly seen in young children (2). Eating disorders are more prevalent in industrialized societies than in nonindustrialized societies, and occur in all socioeconomic classes and major ethnic groups in the USA. About half of those who have anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa fully recover, approximately 30% have a partial recovery, and 20% have no substantial improvement in symptoms (2). The aim of this chapter is to give an overview of the endocrinology of eating disorders leading to excessive weight gain or excessive weight loss in humans. It is of note that despite the strong association between obesity and eating disorders, the increase in obesity is not followed by an increase in eating disorders (3).

ObjectivesViolence is a major public health problem in the USA. In 2016, more than 1.6 million assault-related injuries were treated in US emergency departments (EDs). Unfortunately, information about the magnitude and patterns of violent incidents is often incomplete and underreported to law enforcement (LE). In an effort to identify more complete information on violence for the development of prevention programme, a cross-sectoral Cardiff Violence Prevention Programme (Cardiff Model) partnership was established at a large, urban ED with a level I trauma designation and local metropolitan LE agency in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area. The Cardiff Model is a promising violence prevention approach that promotes combining injury data from hospitals and LE. The objective was to describe the Cardiff Model implementation and collaboration between hospital and LE partners.MethodsThe Cardiff Model was replicated in the USA. A process evaluation was conducted by reviewing project materials, nurse surveys and interviews and ED–LE records.ResultsCardiff Model replication centred around four activities: (1) collaboration between the hospital and LE to form a community safety partnership locally called the US Injury Prevention Partnership; (2) building hospital capacity for data collection; (3) data aggregation and analysis and (4) developing and implementing violence prevention interventions based on the data.ConclusionsThe Cardiff Model can be implemented in the USA for sustainable violent injury data surveillance and sharing. Key components include building a strong ED–LE partnership, communicating with each other and hospital staff, engaging in capacity building and sustainability planning.
