Malnutrition in the elderly is one of the greatest threats to health, well-being and autonomy, it is therefore crucial to understand and to contrast the causal factors of inadequate energy intake. This review focuses on the mechanisms of the so-called ‘anorexia of aging’. In recent years, it has been shown that elderly subjects have abnormal peripheral

Anorexia Nervosa/Atypical Anorexia Nervosa
Current Problems in Pediatric and Adolescent Health Care, 2017Anorexia nervosa has the highest mortality rate among all psychiatric illnesses, as it can result in significant psychopathology along with life-threatening medical complications. Atypical anorexia nervosa is a new variant described in the latest DSM edition, which has much in common with anorexia nervosa and also can result in significant morbidity ...

The physiopathological decline in appetite and food intake known as “anorexia of aging” can lead to involuntary weight loss and protein-energy malnutrition, with devastating consequences in older men and women. Food intake can be influenced by numerous endogenous and exogenous factors, both physiological and pathological: mechanisms underlying age ...

Ageing is associated with a reduction in appetite and food intake, which has been termed the 'anorexia of ageing'. After age 70-75 years average body weight decreases, even in healthy people, disproportionately due to loss of lean tissue. The 'physiological' anorexia and weight loss of ageing predispose to pathological weight loss and malnutrition ...

We first discuss current diagnostic issues concerning the classification of anorexia nervosa (AN) by reference to the proposed criteria of the fifth version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). We strongly welcome the changes in the latest revision of DSM-5 (update April 2012), which in our opinion partially solve the ...

Anorexia of aging is a physiologic decrease in food intake, which gradually leads to weight loss accompanied by age-related changes in body composition. Animal experiments have revealed that advanced age is associated with altered regulation of food intake and energy homeostasis: suppression of orexigenic mechanisms mediated by neuropeptide Y, orexins,

Undernutrition is common in the elderly, particularly those in nursing homes and other institutions. It is associated with substantial adverse effects. The age-associated physiologic reduction in appetite and food intake, which has been termed "the anorexia of aging," contributes to the development of pathologic anorexia and undernutrition.
