SEX DIFFERENCES IN NUTRITIONAL REFEEDING TREATMENT AMONG ADOLESCENTS AND YOUNG ADULTS HOSPITALIZED FOR EATING DISORDERS
Journal of Adolescent Health(2022)
Abstract
Eating disorders in male populations are underrecognized and undertreated, leading to delays in identification, diagnosis, and treatment. Although male adolescents and young adults generally have greater energy requirements than females due to greater body weights, metabolic response, and exercise, current inpatient nutritional refeeding protocols support a single caloric prescription regardless of sex. The objective of this study was to determine sex differences in nutritional refeeding outcomes among adolescents and young adults hospitalized for eating disorders.
