Health state utilities associated with hyperphagia: Data for use in cost‐utility models [PDF]
Obesity Science & Practice, 2023 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]
Scientific ReportsWe 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

Obesity and metabolism, 2013 Since ancient times, mankind is faced with the problem of obesity, caused by mismatch between energy intake and energy use. In recent decades, both women and men are involved in obesity epidemic, the occurrence of which can be attributed to the increased consumption of energy – and fat-rich foods. There are several reasons for the increased consumption

The study of hyperphagia in dementia
, 1995 About 750 000 people suffer from dementia in the United Kingdom. This number is rising as the proportion of those over 65 years old increases. Excessive eating (hyperphagia) occurs at some stage in about 25 % of people suffering from dementia. This can lead to consumption of unsuitable substances and a significant gain in weight, which may make care at

A phenotypic Caenorhabditis elegans screen identifies a selective suppressor of antipsychotic-induced hyperphagia [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 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 ...
