Schlueter et al. [ 34] suggested that enhanced proteolytic activity in the saliva of bulimic patients might contribute to an altered buffering capacity of the saliva, as well as development and progression of dental erosion through degradation of dentine and the pellicle.
As you will have read, we are now paying the price for 30 years of bulimic over-spending, not least on works such as Rabbit.
Results supported the model with regard to maintenance and exacerbation, but not onset, of bulimic symptoms.
Forbidden Food Survey: Measure of bulimic's anticipated emotional reactions to specific foods.
An interactive model of bulimic symptom development, first suggested by Vohs et al. (1999), was tested in adult women (mean age = 45.19).
However, results did not show a significant effect of alcohol on body size discrepancy or self-awareness, regardless of bulimic symptom severity.
Bacaltchuk and Hay [ 11] analysed the dropout (attrition) rate of bulimic patients from treatment with SSRIs.
One study found large improvements in a measure of bulimic features at the end of the intervention, although this was inconclusive at follow-up (Carrard et al., 2011).
About 25 to 33percentt of bulimics also struggle with alcohol or drugs, according to a study published last year in the journal Biological Psychiatry.
Bulimia is also very serious, and if left untreated, 10percentt of bulimics will die as a result of the disease.
