Eating disorder in gambling disorder: a group with increased psychopathology Lemón, Linda Fernández Aranda, Fernando Jiménez-Murcia, Susana Håkansson, Anders Trastorns de la conducta alimentària Epidemiologia Jocs d'atzar Eating disorders Epidemiology Gambling Background and aims: theoretical background and previous data provide some similarities between problematic gambling and eating behaviors, and a theoretically increased clinical severity in individuals suffering from both conditions. However, large datasets are lacking, and therefore, the present study aimed to study, in a nationwide register material, psychiatric comorbidity, age and gender in gambling disorder (GD) patients with or without eating disorder (ED). Methods: diagnostic data from a nationwide register were used, including all individuals with a GD diagnosis in specialized health care in Sweden, in the years 2005-2016 (N = 2,099). Patients with GD and an ED diagnosis (n = 57) were compared to GD patients without ED. Results: patients with GD+ED were significantly more likely than other GD patients to also have a diagnosis of drug use disorder, depressive disorders, bipolar disorders, other mood disorder, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, and neuropsychiatric disorders, when controlling for gender. In logistic regression, a comorbid ED in GD was associated with female gender, younger age, depressive disorder and personality disorders. Discussion and conclusion: in nationwide register data, despite the low number of GD+ED patients, GD patients with ED appear to have a more severe psychiatric comorbidity than GD patients without ED. The combined GD+ED conditions may require particular screening and clinical attention, as well as further research in larger and longitudinal studies. 2021-11-25T12:02:35Z 2021-11-25T12:02:35Z 2021-09-28 2021-11-25T10:53:59Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Reproducció del document publicat a: https://doi.org/10.1556/2006.2021.00060 Journal of Behavioral Addictions, 2021 https://doi.org/10.1556/2006.2021.00060 cc-by (c) Lemón, Linda et al., 2021 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Akademiai Kiado Articles publicats en revistes (Ciències Clíniques)
