Anorexia nervosa \u00e4r en allvarlig form av \u00e4tst\u00f6rning som inneb\u00e4r att den sjuke sv\u00e4lter sig sj\u00e4lv eller tr\u00e4nar extremt mycket f\u00f6r att g\u00e5 ner i vikt. Men med st\u00f6d och behandling g\u00e5r det att bli frisk och i dag tillfrisknar majoriteten av de som drabbats av sjukdomen. \u00c4ven om studier p\u00e5 senare tid indikerar att sjukdomen delvis kan vara \u00e4rftlig, s\u00f6ker forskare fortfarande svar p\u00e5 de bakomliggande orsakerna.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Vi vet inte tillr\u00e4ckligt om de biologiska orsakerna bakom sjukdomen, konstaterar Suzanne Dickson, professor i neurovetenskap vid G\u00f6teborgs universitet.<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Arial||||||||” text_text_color=”#141414″ text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”1.5em” header_font_size=”24px” header_2_font=”||||||||” header_2_text_color=”#222222″ custom_padding=”|20px|||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”|0px|||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”23px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n
Den behandling som i dag erbjuds \u00e4r \u00f6ppen- och slutenv\u00e5rd, med \u00e5terkommande uppf\u00f6ljningar. V\u00e4ntetiden kan ibland ocks\u00e5 vara l\u00e5ng. Sj\u00e4lva behandlingen kan beh\u00f6va p\u00e5g\u00e5 under en l\u00e4ngre tid.<\/p>\n
\u2013 M\u00e5let inom v\u00e5rden \u00e4r att patienten ska g\u00e5 upp i vikt, men det botar inte sjukdomen i sig, s\u00e4ger Suzanne Dickson och p\u00e5pekar att ungef\u00e4r h\u00e4lften av patienterna f\u00e5r \u00e5terfall inom tv\u00e5 \u00e5r efter avslutad behandling. F\u00f6r en del patienter \u00e4r anorexia nervosa en sjukdom som man kan beh\u00f6va tackla flera g\u00e5nger under sitt liv.<\/p>\n
\u2013 Att det inte finns n\u00e5gon medicinering \u00e4r ett stort problem. Det skulle ocks\u00e5 vara v\u00e4ldigt bra om det gick att ta reda p\u00e5 vilka patienter som riskerar \u00e5terfall.<\/p>\n
I sin forskning fokuserar Suzanne Dickson och hennes team d\u00e4rf\u00f6r bland annat p\u00e5 hur hormonniv\u00e5erna \u00e4ndras i samband med anorexi och vilken betydelse den kunskapen kan ha f\u00f6r att f\u00f6ruts\u00e4ga risken f\u00f6r \u00e5terfall.<\/p>\n

Anorexia nervosa \u00e4r en allvarlig psykiatrisk sjukdom som inneb\u00e4r kraftigt begr\u00e4nsat matintag och f\u00f6rvr\u00e4ngd kroppsuppfattning.
