Hyperphagia in Bardet–Biedl syndrome: Pathophysiology, burden, and management [PDF]
Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare, genetically heterogeneous, and highly pleiotropic autosomal recessive ciliopathy. Patients typically present with early loss of vision, hyperphagia, severe obesity, learning difficulties, and renal dysfunction.

A phenotypic Caenorhabditis elegans screen identifies a selective suppressor of antipsychotic-induced hyperphagia [PDF]
The molecular pathway(s) driving antipsychotics (AP) induced hyperphagia remains unclear. A novel C. elegans system is used here to screen for FDA approved drugs that selectively suppresses this response, unraveling potential molecular mediators ...

Burden of hyperphagia and obesity in Bardet–Biedl syndrome: a multicountry survey
Background Signs and symptoms of Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) occur during early childhood, progress over time, and place substantial, multifaceted burden on patients and their caregivers. Hyperphagia may be a contributing factor to early-onset obesity in

Health state utilities associated with hyperphagia: Data for use in cost‐utility models [PDF]
Objective Rare genetic diseases of obesity typically present with hyperphagia, a pathologic desire to consume food. Cost‐utility models assessing the value of treatments for these rare diseases will require health state utilities representing hyperphagia.

Hyperphagia in craniopharyngioma- a real-world study from the international hypothalamic-pituitary brain tumors patient registry [PDF]
We previously showed that hyperphagia affects quality of life of craniopharyngioma (CP) survivors. Characteristics of hyperphagia are unknown. This study aimed to characterize and quantify hyperphagia in CP survivors with and without hypothalamic obesity

Cold-induced hyperphagia requires AgRP neuron activation in mice
To maintain energy homeostasis during cold exposure, the increased energy demands of thermogenesis must be counterbalanced by increased energy intake.

Hyperphagia: Current concepts and future directions proceedings of the 2nd international conference on hyperphagia [PDF]
ObjectiveHyperphagia is a central feature of inherited disorders (e.g., Prader–Willi Syndrome) in which obesity is a primary phenotypic component. Hyperphagia may also contribute to obesity as observed in the general population, thus raising the potential importance of common underlying mechanisms and treatments.

The Hyperphagia Questionnaire: Insights From a Multicentric Validation Study in Individuals With Prader Willi Syndrome [PDF]
Background/ObjectivesThe present study aimed to validate the Italian version of the Hyperphagia Questionnaire (HQ), a 11-items questionnaire developed to assess hyperphagia in individuals with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS).

Involvement of inflammatory gene expression pathways in depressed patients with hyperphagia [PDF]
The pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD) is highly heterogeneous. Previous evidence at the DNA level as well as on the serum protein level suggests that the role of inflammation in MDD pathology is stronger in patients with hyperphagia ...
