Altered functional connectivity in binge eating disorder and bulimia nervosa: A resting ‐state fMRI study

ConclusionOur findings demonstrate abnormalities in brain networks involved in salience attribution, self ‐referential processing, and cognitive control in bulimic‐type eating disorders. Together with our observation of functional connectivity differences between BED and BN, this study offers a differentiated account of both similarities and differences regarding brain connectivity in BED and BN.
