The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of binge eating disorder (BED) in nonpatient women in the community and in weight control groups in France and to compare the characteristics of weight history of subjects with and without BED.
Eating patterns over the past six months were studied by questionnaires in self-report format. The prevalence of binge eating, BED, and bulimia was studied in 447 nonpatient women and in subjects seeking help for weight control either in private practice (PP, n = 292) or in a hospital department of nutrition (H, n = 85).
BED was common (PP = 9%; H = 15%) among patients attending weight control clinics but very rare in the community (0.7%). The disorder was associated with a history of weight fluctuations. Many subjects with BED referred to regular use of diet pills (29%) or vomiting (39%) but the prevalence of these strategies of weight control fell short for the requirement for the diagnosis of bulimia.
BED was common in subjects seeking help for weight control and extremely rare in the community nonpatients.
本研究旨在评估法国社区非患者女性及体重控制组中暴饮暴食症（BED）的患病率，并比较有和没有BED的受试者体重史特征。
采用自我报告格式的问卷对过去六个月的饮食模式进行研究。在447名非患者女性以及在私人诊所（PP，n = 292）或医院营养科（H，n = 85）寻求体重控制帮助的受试者中研究暴饮暴食、BED和神经性贪食症的患病率。
在前往体重控制诊所就诊的患者中，BED很常见（PP组为9%；H组为15%），但在社区中非常罕见（0.7%）。该疾病与体重波动史有关。许多患有BED的受试者提到经常使用减肥药（29%）或催吐（39%），但这些体重控制策略的患病率未达到神经性贪食症诊断要求。
BED在寻求体重控制帮助的受试者中很常见，而在社区非患者中极为罕见。
