Using Multivariate Statistics

BACKGROUND Mental disorders have a strong association with suicide. This meta-analysis, or statistical overview, of the literature gives an estimate of the suicide risk of the common mental disorders.

METHOD We searched the medical literature to find reports on the mortality of mental disorders. English language reports were located on MEDLINE (1966-1993) with the search terms mental disorders', 'brain injury', 'eating disorders', 'epilepsy', 'suicide attempt', 'psychosurgery', with 'mortality' and 'follow-up studies', and from the reference lists of these reports. We abstracted 249 reports with two years or more follow-up and less than 10% loss of subjects, and compared observed numbers of suicides with those expected. A standardised mortality ratio (SMR) was calculated for each disorder.

RESULTS Of 44 disorders considered, 36 have a significantly raised SMR for suicide, five have a raised SMR which fails to reach significance, one SMR is not raised and for two entries the SMR could not be calculated.

CONCLUSIONS If these results can be generalised then virtually all mental disorders have an increased risk of suicide excepting mental retardation and dementia. The suicide risk is highest for functional and lowest for organic disorders with substance misuse disorders lying between. However, within these broad groupings the suicide risk varies widely.

Hidden eating disorders and the treatment gap

The meta-analysis by Solmi et al. (1) on bone mineral density, osteoporosis and fractures among people with eating disorders is a tour de force in systematic reviewing. The authors conducted a comprehensive literature search identifying nearly 5000 papers and analysing and applying quantitative synthesis to 57 papers. Although their results may be of no surprise to experts in the area of eating disorders, the new information on size of effects in the meta-analyses is important. They found that indeed people with anorexia nervosa suffer an increased risk of osteoporosis, osteopenia and fractures, and furthermore, that this increased risk is moderated by duration of illness and amenorrhoea. Somewhat less expected was that body weight (body mass index) in itself did not moderate the risk of osteoporosis. They also found insufficient evidence for moderators and risk of osteoporosis in people with other eating disorders. Most studies found no significant differences in bone mineral density between people with bulimia nervosa vs. healthy controls. However, there was a trend for people with bulimia nervosa to have reduced lumbar spine bone mineral density vs. controls, and another recently published meta-analysis (with some differences in which studies were included) has reported significantly reduced spinal bone density in bulimia nervosa (2). This distillation of the evidence (1) is followed in the discussion with a clear exposition of the state of evidence of treatments that accords with clinical practice guidelines and other reviews (3–5) and the second meta-analysis (2). We learn that despite this risk being long-known and easily identifiable, the treatment options for people with anorexia nervosa who suffer osteopenia are limited. Commonly prescribed vitamin D and calcium has little to no evidence of effect. Bisphosphonates are ineffectual in adolescent years and may cause harm in younger women. This lack of evidence also includes other anabolic/anticatabolic medications commonly used in postmenopausal osteoporosis. Oral oestrogen or the contraceptive pill commonly thought to be helpful has insufficient or little evidence of efficacy. The only potential agent on the horizon is transdermal oestrogen, possibly because it does not suppress IGF1 secretion. In the course of writing this Editorial, the author reflected on a 1989 publication that used a now outdated technology to measure bone density, CT scan. The final sentence was ‘The principal conclusion of this study [which found no protective effect of oral contraceptive use] is that management that succeeds in averting prolonged amenorrhoea and low weight is likely to be the most effective way of countering bone loss in anorexia nervosa’ (6). Over a quarter of a century later, progress seems to have been very slow. The state of knowledge of the treatment of this important, potentially irreversible adverse effect of suffering anorexia nervosa is salutary. It exists in the context of similar deficits of knowledge in the primary treatment of anorexia nervosa. For example, although the number of randomized control trials (RCTs) of psychological therapy of anorexia nervosa in adults has improved in recent years, and notably studies from Germany by Zipfel et al. and the United Kingdom by Schmidt et al. have markedly increased the number and quality of RCTs, there still remain fewer than fifteen including two completed and yet unpublished trials (5). The body of knowledge concludes that while specialist treatments and expertise in anorexia nervosa appear to be a necessary condition for efficacy, no trial yet published has supported any specific psychological therapy vs. any other psychological therapy as offering an advantage in outpatient treatment in adults in a ‘head-to-head’ comparison (4, 5). The lack of difference in outcomes between specialist lead therapies underscores the limitations of underlying theoretical paradigms that may provide an understanding of the illness itself, its aetiology and treatment. There are more studies and robust evidence for treatments of other eating disorders and in anorexia nervosa for family based treatments and pharmacological therapy (3–5). There is consensus, for example that family therapy is the approach of first choice in children and adolescents and that antidepressants are ineffective, but antipsychotics may offer some help in reducing anxiety in people in the acute phase of the illness, with the caveat that these

Reflections on the 'State of the Evidence' for treatments in anorexia nervosa.

Introduction Approximately 15%–20% of the adult population self-report symptoms of addictive eating. There are currently limited options for management. Motivational interviewing-based interventions, containing personalised coping skills training, have been found to be effective for behaviour change in addictive disorders (eg, alcohol). This project builds upon foundations of an addictive eating feasibility study previously conducted and co-design process involving consumers. The primary aim of this study is to examine the efficacy of a telehealth intervention targeting addictive eating symptoms in Australian adults compared with passive intervention and control groups. Methods and analysis This three-arm randomised controlled trial will recruit participants 18–85 years, endorsing ≥3 symptoms on the Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS) 2.0, with body mass index >18.5 kg/m2. Addictive eating symptoms are assessed at baseline (pre-intervention), 3 months (post-intervention) and 6 months. Other outcomes include dietary intake and quality, depression, anxiety, stress, quality of life, physical activity and sleep hygiene. Using a multicomponent clinician-led approach, the active intervention consists of five telehealth sessions (15–45 min each) delivered by a dietitian over 3 months. The intervention uses personalised feedback, skill-building exercises, reflective activities and goal setting. Participants are provided with a workbook and website access. The passive intervention group receives the intervention via a self-guided approach with access to the workbook and website (no telehealth). The control group receives personalised written dietary feedback at baseline and participants advised to follow their usual dietary pattern for 6 months. The control group will be offered the passive intervention after 6 months. The primary endpoint is YFAS symptom scores at 3 months. A cost–consequence analysis will determine intervention costs alongside mean change outcomes. Ethics and dissemination Human Research Ethics Committee of University of Newcastle, Australia provided approval (H-2021-0100). Findings will be disseminated via publication in peer-reviewed journals, conference presentations, community presentations and student theses. Trial registration number Australia New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12621001079831).

Examining the efficacy of a telehealth intervention targeting addictive eating in Australian adults (the TRACE Programme): a randomised controlled trial protocol

A singular property in my hands

This small volume (99 pages text, 10 pages appendices) is a treatment manual that contains a wealth of guidance for therapists treating a person with anorexia nervosa. The therapy manual as presented is most applicable to adults, and it is in a large randomised controlled trial of adults that its efficacy has been demonstrated (the ANTOP trial).1 The manual could, however, also be used in treatment of older adolescents.
