Do impulsivity-related traits distinguish women with co-occurring bulimia nervosa in a psychiatric sample?
Impulsivity-related traits of negative urgency and lack of premeditation significantly differentiated women with versus without co-occurring BN among women with borderline personality disorder. Lower levels of impulsivity-related traits in women with MDD indicated that effects were not simply attributable to any form of psychopathology. Of the impulsivity traits, negative urgency demonstrated the strongest effect, providing further evidence of the important relationship between negative urgency and the expression of bulimic symptomology. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.(Int J Eat Disord 2016).
Our results show that pre-existing DM in men with PCa is associated with more aggressive recurrence, suggesting that DM may affect disease progression following RP. Further investigation would be needed to elucidate exact biologic interaction between DM and PCa and also assess causal relationships that potentially could be modified to improve long-term outcome in patients with the two diseases.
