| Core Tip |
This study offered a comprehensive assessment of the global burden of eating disorders (EDs) among children and adolescents over three decades using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019. We observed a continuous increase in the disability-adjusted life years and prevalence rates of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa worldwide. Notably, while EDs predominantly affected females, the relative increase in burden was more significant among males. The study highlighted an association between higher sociodemographic index regions and increased EDs burden, underscoring the need for targeted healthcare strategies across varying socioeconomic landscapes. |
