Sažetak
Anorexia nervosa (AN), as one of the eating disorders today, represents one of the most common chronic diseases in adolescents with high mortality rate, mainly related to the female gender and adolescent age. The research conducted in collaboration with the Observational Retrospective study included 183 girls (2005 to 2015 period) from the Centre for Eating Disorders in Children and Adolescents in the Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital Centre Zagreb. The average age of the patients was 14.8 ± 2.5 (7 to 23), they were diagnosed with AN for an average of 12.8 ± 13.9 months (0.7 to 108 months). Their average BMI was 15.8 ± 1.9 kg/m2 with IBW of 77.7 ± 9.9 %, and an average weight loss of 21.7 ± 9.9 %. 20.6 % of the patients had a normal menstrual cycle and 74.4 % of the AN patients had secondary amenorrhea. The increased cardiovascular (CVD) risk was found in one third of the AN patients (35.5 %) and in almost half of the restrictive type AN patients (47.4 %). The increased CVD risk correlates with worse anthropometric parameters (p=0.018) and amenorrhea (p<0.001). The results confirm the correlation between the increased CVD risk and the AN entoype, and confirm the importance of physical improvement as the main goal of the AN treatment.
