3.7.2. ED Treatment Outcome in BN (1/5)

A study by Smith et al. [69], which can be included in Group 2, were the only ones to examine, in a sample of adult suffering from BN, the links between PPA and suicide in a multivariate analysis. Smith et al. [69] found that PPA was positively associated with suicidal gestures and attempts even when controlling for frequency of vomiting episodes, laxative abuse, dietary restraint and age.
