Healio (2/24, Holden) reports, “Older adults, children, men and certain racial and ethnic groups were found to be underrepresented in U.S.-based clinical trials on eating disorders,” investigators concluded after reviewing data from “21 interventional trials conducted within the U.S.” and then collecting “data on age, sex, race, ethnicity and primary diagnosis, which was classified as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder or other.” The findings were published online Feb. 21 in a research letter in JAMA Network Open.
