Abstract

Purpose of review: The Arab world is dealing with modernization and sociocultural changes both associated with eating disorders. The present review provides an update of 'Eating disorders in the Arab world: a literature review', which was published in 2020.

Recent findings: There are 22 recent epidemiological studies on eating disorders in five different countries in the Arab world. A large-scale national mental health survey reported a 12-month eating disorder prevalence of 3.2% and an eating disorder lifetime prevalence of 6.1%. Binge-eating disorder was the most common eating disorder (12-month prevalence = 2.1%, lifetime prevalence = 2.6%), 1.6% was at high risk for binge-eating disorder. Overall, between 23.8 and 34.8% was at high risk for any eating disorder. Body-shape dissatisfaction, a high BMI and separated/widowed/single marital status were associated with eating disorder pathology.

Summary: Although there is still a lack of studies compared to the western world, the number of epidemiological studies on eating disorders in the Arab world is growing and there is an increase in studies using appropriate assessment-tools and norms. It is recommended to offer specialized treatment and to implement preventive programs.

阿拉伯世界饮食失调流行病学系统回顾。
审查目的:阿拉伯世界正在应对与饮食失调有关的现代化和社会文化变革。本综述是对 2020 年发表的《阿拉伯世界的饮食失调症:文献综述》的更新:在阿拉伯世界的五个不同国家中,最近有 22 项关于饮食失调的流行病学研究。一项大规模的全国心理健康调查报告显示,饮食失调症的 12 个月患病率为 3.2%,终生患病率为 6.1%。暴饮暴食症是最常见的饮食失调症(12 个月患病率 = 2.1%,终生患病率 = 2.6%),1.6% 的人是暴饮暴食症的高危人群。总体而言,有 23.8%至 34.8%的人是饮食失调症的高危人群。小结:虽然与西方国家相比,阿拉伯国家对饮食失调症的流行病学研究仍然缺乏,但其数量正在不断增加,而且使用适当评估工具和标准的研究也在增多。建议提供专门治疗并实施预防计划。
