Micronutrient Status in Children Suffering From Anorexia Nervosa: A Cohort of 349 Patients in a Referral Center for Eating Disorders

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a serious illness in which more than half of all deaths are due to malnutrition. Critically low energy and protein intake are known causes of massive weight loss, whereas micronutrient deficiencies due to a low‐calorie food pattern remain poorly characterized in children with AN.

Assessing Clinical Severity and Prognosis in Adolescents With Anorexia Nervosa and Atypical Anorexia Nervosa Using the Albumin‐Globulin Ratio

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The albumin‐globulin ratio (AGR) is a biochemical marker reflecting nutritional and inflammatory status, with significant prognostic value in chronic conditions. This study examined its association with clinical/biochemical markers in adolescents with anorexia nervosa (AN) and atypical AN (AAN).

Femoral Skeletal Growth in Early Infancy Assessed by Radiofrequency Echographic Multi‐Spectrometry

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Radiofrequency echographic multi‐spectrometry (REMS) acquisition of raw ultrasound radiofrequency signals from neonatal bone. Signals undergo preprocessing and frequency‐domain analysis to extract spectral features reflecting bone properties. A software‐guided procedure then identifies and selects standardized regions of interest (ROIs).
