Obesity (OB) and feeding and eating disorders (FED) are complex and prevalent pathologies in ado lescents. OB has been shown to be a risk factor for developing binge eating disorder and bulimia nervosa, and vice versa, these FED also develop OB. However, obese adolescents may present atypical or sub-threshold criteria for FED. The objective of this review is to describe the epidemiological, cli nical, and therapeutic relationship between FED and OB in adolescents, with emphasis on the urgent need for research and collaboration among professionals in the fields of mental health and nutrition.
肥胖症（OB）以及进食和饮食失调（FED）是青少年中复杂且普遍存在的病症。肥胖症已被证明是发展为暴饮暴食症和神经性贪食症的一个风险因素，反之，这些进食和饮食失调症也会导致肥胖症。然而，肥胖青少年可能表现出进食和饮食失调的非典型或亚阈值标准。本综述的目的是描述青少年进食和饮食失调与肥胖症之间的流行病学、临床和治疗关系，重点强调心理健康和营养领域专业人员开展研究与合作的迫切需求。
