Long-term prognosis in anorexia nervosa: lessons from a 21-year follow-up study.

Zipfel S, Löwe B, Reas DL, Deter HC, Herzog W.

Abstract

In a prospective long-term follow-up of 84 patients 21 years after first hospitalisation for anorexia nervosa, we found that 50.6% had achieved a full recovery, 10.4% still met full diagnostic criteria for anorexia nervosa, and 15.6% had died from causes related to anorexia nervosa. Predictors of outcome included physical, social, and psychological variables.
