From Canada: Electrolyte Abnormalities Tied to Adverse Outcomes in Eating Disorders
For people with an eating disorder, electrolyte abnormalities are associated with death and poor physical health outcomes, according to a study published in the October issue of The Lancet Psychiatry.
Marco Solmi, M.D., Ph.D., from the University of Ottawa in Ontario, Canada, and colleagues conducted a retrospective population-based cohort study in Ontario involving people aged 13 years or older with an eating disorder and an outpatient electrolyte measure within one year to examine the association with mortality and physical health outcomes.
