Predictors of a Healthy Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire (EDE-Q) Score 1 Year After Bariatric Surgery
ConclusionBS seems to promote successful treatment of self-reported eating disorder symptoms during the first postoperative year. The achievement of optimal results is independent of age, sex, weight loss, obesity-related comorbidity status, surgical technique, or 30-day surgical complications. Future studies, using validated questionnaires specifically designed to investigate eating behavior after BS and/or direct measurements of the eating behavior are needed to clarify the underlying neuropsychologic mechanisms that drive the observed postoperative changes.
