Night eating syndrome in liver transplant recipients with diabetes or excess-weight: a cross-sectional study
NES is present among LT recipients and appears more prevalent in those with obesity and disrupted sleep patterns. Given the metabolic and psychological vulnerability of this population, NES may represent an under recognized barrier to optimal post-transplant care. These findings support incorporating psycho-nutritional screening tools in transplant follow-up protocols.
