Acute anorexia nervosa shows striking brain structural heterogeneity at the individual level, but enough shared signal for robust MRI-based classification. AN subtypes, however, remain structurally indistinguishable. New paper from @tudresden.bsky.social: journals.plos.org/plosmedicine...
Brain morphology in Anorexia Nervosa and its subtypes: A multi-cohort study of individual participant data
In a multi-cohort study, Bernardoni and colleagues investigate potential brain structure differences between patients with Anorexia Nervosa (AN), and AN patients versus healthy controls, using individ...

Impression from our BIOREXIA Workshop @ipnp.bsky.social: This international collaboration studies biomarkers that may help assess disease course, severity and relapse risk in anorexia nervosa. We combine blood-based markers with MRI data to support more targeted treatment. #BIOREXIA #EatingDisorders

New article from our team @tudresden.bsky.social: Same discounting, different engagement: in a time-limited game, anoa nervosa participants more often pick the closer option when optimal—despite the need for more trials/ more effort onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
Intact delay discounting but more optimal reward‐based decisions in anorexia nervosa during an experiential task
Aims Individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN) have an apparent increased capacity to delay gratification and forgo immediate food rewards in their long-term pursuit of thinness. Prior research probed ...

Our new study @tudresden.bsky.social finds that GIP concentrations are elevated in #AnorexiaNervosa. The levels correlate with symptom severity and normalize with weight gain, suggesting GIP as a potential new target for treatment development. authors.elsevier.com/c/1mGWd-Ly9d...

Great work @ingerhellerhoff.bsky.social @tudresden.bsky.social 👍
Happy to share that the third paper of my PhD was just published🎉 We found associations of neurofilament light concentrations in acute anorexia nervosa with white matter volume as well as white matter connectivity🧠 Find the open access paper here: acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....
Our newest work suggests that brain structure alterations in #Anorexia Nervosa are shaped by the underlying distributions of neurotransmitter systems. 🧠The degree of this alignment actually predicts early treatment outcomes. #EatingDisorders @tudresden.bsky.social rdcu.be/eSkF6

🚨New paper alert!🚨 How does the "Bayesian brain" process faces in autism?🧠 We used face aftereffects and a hierarchical Drift Diffusion Model to explore gender face processing. ❗Results: No evidence for imprecise priors or sensory dominance, but a lack of own-gender bias in autistic adolescents.
Thrilled to share our latest study, a first in exploring dynamic functional connectivity in adolescent #anorexia nervosa ... hinting at potential links to nutritional deprivation. Great work by Ilka acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1...
