Abstract
ABSTRACT A broad array of important and diverse studies surrounding the treatment of eating disorders were published in Eating Disorders: The Journal of Treatment & Prevention in 2022. Novel interventions such as neurosurgical and neuromodulatory treatments were discussed, as evidence continues to mount around their potential utility in treating eating disorders, in particular namely anorexia nervosa. Important pragmatic and theoretical developments around feeding and refeeding approaches emerged, and are also discussed. In this review, we carefully review evidence alluding to the potential efficacy of exercise in partially ameliorating binge eating disorder symptomatology, while examining broader evidence underscoring the importance of therapeutically ameliorating compulsive exercise in anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. In addition, we overview evidence relating to the risk and sequelae associated with premature discharge from intensive eating disorder treatment, as well as the efficacy of CBT versus group therapy-based maintenance treatments. Finally, important developments around the use of open versus blind weighing in treatment are assessed. Overall, the articles published in Eating Disorders: The Journal of Treatment & Prevention in 2022 evidence the promise of treatment advances in the field and requires further work to address the development of efficacious treatments to achieve greater outcomes for those with eating disorders.
