Twenty-one children who conformed to DSM-III criteria for anorexia nervosa, and who were aged 13 or younger at onset, were followed up after several years (mean = eight) using a range of outcome parameters. Comparison of these results with previous studies of later onset cases suggests that the age of onset of anorexia nervosa carries no prognostic significance.
21名符合《精神疾病诊断与统计手册第三版》（DSM-III）神经性厌食症标准且发病时年龄在13岁及以下的儿童，在数年后（平均8年）采用一系列结果参数进行了随访。将这些结果与先前对发病较晚病例的研究进行比较表明，神经性厌食症的发病年龄不具有预后意义。
