Oxytocin Effects on Food Stimulus Processing and Food Intake in Females With or Without Binge Eating Disorder
These results indicate disorder- and, respectively, sex-specific effects of oxytocin on food-related incentive salience and food intake and point to a role of oxytocin in binge eating pathology. They moreover suggest that sex hormones determine the acute effect of oxytocin on eating behavior in females.
