Abstract
Background
This study compared whether differences between different anorexia nervosa(AN)subtypes(R-AN,B-AN) in multiple organ complications.
Methods
Peripheral white blood cells (WBCs),thyroid function,etc, were measured in 53 patients (R-AN = 30,B-AN = 23)and compared 55 healthy controls (HCs)
Results
Compared with HCs, significant differences between R-AN in T, P, DBP, SBP WBC, PRL, TT4, TSH, FT3, FT4, TT3, TP, HGB, RBC,, EDI total score and DT, I, ID, IA ,BD, P and MF. Compared with HCs, significant differences between B-AN in DBP, WBC, PRL, TT4, FT3, FT4, TT3, TP, HGB, RBC,, EDI total score, DT, BD, I, ID, and IA and differences in PLT and P. significant differences between R-AN and B-AN in T, P, DBP, SBP, PRL, TSH, B, FT4, and HGB. In R-AN, BMI negatively correlated with amenorrhea, and PRL EDI total score, DT, BD, and P positively correlated with DBP, SBP, HGB and GLB. In B-AN, BMI negatively correlated with amenorrhea, PRL, EDI total score, and DT, and B, BD, positively correlated with T and DBP.
Conclusion
The effects of R-AN and B-AN on T, P, DBP, SBP, PRL TSH, B, FT4, and HGB were different, and BMI played a role in the changes.
