The aim of this article is to provide a narrative review of empirical studies related to health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and eating disorders and to report recent changes in the measurement of HRQOL in eating disorders.
Twenty-five articles of central importance to the topic were identified in a systematic search of six databases. All articles were selected based on a consensus relevancy rating process. Key themes were extracted from the articles and validated by all authors.
We identify six themes in the extant empirical literature.
We discuss these six themes and review them in light of the fact that they are identified in studies using only generic measures of HRQOL. Four recently developed disease-specific HRQOL measures specific to patients with eating disorder are discussed.
本文旨在对与健康相关生活质量(HRQOL)和饮食失调相关的实证研究进行叙述性综述,并报告饮食失调中HRQOL测量的近期变化。
通过对六个数据库的系统检索,确定了25篇对该主题至关重要的文章。所有文章均基于共识相关性评级过程进行选择。从文章中提取关键主题并经所有作者验证。
我们在现有实证文献中确定了六个主题。
我们讨论这六个主题,并鉴于它们是在仅使用HRQOL通用测量方法的研究中确定的这一事实对其进行综述。还讨论了最近开发的四种针对饮食失调患者的特定疾病HRQOL测量方法。
