To examine the effect of bright light therapy on the sleep-wake rhythm, the menstrual cycle, mood, and key eating pathology symptoms in chronic anorexia nervosa.
Five chronic anorectic women (mean duration of illness: 15.3 years) received 5 daily sessions of 30 minutes bright light therapy (10,000 LUX). Participants completed a diagnostic interview and questionnaires at pre-test, post-test and at a three month follow-up.
At follow up there was a slight improvement on core eating pathology, a fair decrease of depressive symptoms and an clinically important improvement on global distress.
Bright light therapy has on short term a positive effect on the physiological and psychological well being of chronic anorectic women. However, at follow-up the effects were partly lost. It is recommended to enhance the exposure period and repeat the treatment after 3 months.
研究强光疗法对慢性神经性厌食症患者睡眠-清醒节律、月经周期、情绪及主要饮食病理症状的影响。
五名慢性厌食症女性患者（平均病程：15.3年）接受为期5天、每天30分钟的强光疗法（10000勒克斯）。参与者在测试前、测试后及三个月随访时完成诊断访谈和问卷调查。
随访时，核心饮食病理症状略有改善，抑郁症状明显减轻，整体痛苦有临床意义的改善。
强光疗法短期内对慢性厌食症女性的生理和心理健康有积极影响。然而，随访时效果部分消失。建议延长暴露时间并在3个月后重复治疗。
