According to Healio (7/5, Demko), even though “the incidence of eating disorders was relatively low compared with some other mental disorders in Wales, patients with eating disorders had a higher burden of morbidity, other mental health problems and mortality,” researchers concluded in a study that involved some “15,558 people” who “received an eating disorder diagnosis between 1990 and 2017 in Wales.” The findingswere published online July 1 in the British Journal of Psychiatry.
