Long‐Term Outcome and Mortality in Adolescent Girls 8 Years After Treatment for Anorexia Nervosa
In the long run, eating disorder diagnoses decreased significantly. Although a considerable proportion of patients recovered from their eating disorder, the number of recovered patients remained limited, with long-term negative consequences in a large proportion of patients. Standardized mortality was excessive, calling for ever-better therapies. Additional studies are needed to show if improved therapies lead to a better long-term outcome.
