All EDs lead to physical and psychosocial functioning impairments in the patients which, in turn, may contribute to the persistence of the disease. The severity of EDs has been highlighted by their chronicity, medical complications, comorbidity, and high rates of mortality. Therefore, to address this important health issue, the current Special Issue collected 21 articles (i.e., three reviews and 18 research articles) focusing on the most recent and relevant scientific findings regarding advances in ED, such as genetic and epigenetic factors, biomarkers, comorbidity, clinical phenotypes, neurocognition, treatment predictors, and treatment models and therapeutic targets. Altogether, we believe that the articles contained in this Special Issue have largely achieved the initial objective of providing increased knowledge about the pathogenesis, the risk factors, the maintenance factors, and the most appropriate treatments tools for ED.HumanitiesbicsscSocial interactionbicsscaccelerometryacyl-ghrelinADHDadolescencealcohol and/or drug abuseanimal modelsanorexiaanorexia nervosaASDattentionattention-deficit/hyperactivity disorderautismAvon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC)binge eating disordersbody anxietybody image disturbancesbody mass indexbody-related attentional biasbulimiabulimia nervosacaloric intakecaregiverscarerschildren and adolescentschronic food restrictionclinical trialcognitive interpersonal modelcomorbiditycortical complexitydance studentsdeep brain stimulationdelayed sleep-wake phasedesacyl-ghrelindisordered eating attitudesdisordered eating behaviorsdisordered eating cognitionsDNA methylationdropoutEating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26)eating disordereating disordersectomorphyEEGemotion recognitionemotion regulationemotional dysregulationepigeneticsevent related potentialsexecutive functionsfear of gaining weightfood addictionfood cravingfractal dimensiongene-environment interactionsglutamatehigh expressed emotionimpulsivityinsulainterventionlongitudinalmagnetic resonance spectroscopymalnutritionmesomorphyMRSMUPSN-acetylaspartaten/aNAAneuroimagingneurophysiologynocturnal eating syndromenon-suicidal self-injurynucleus accumbensonline interventionparasomniaparentsphysical activitypolygenic scorespsychopathologypsychosurgeryReceiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve analysisrefeeding protocolrefeeding syndromerestrictive anorexia nervosarTMSsensory sensitivitysevere enduringsleep-related eating disordersubcallosal cingulatesubstance use disordertemperamenttreatmenttreatment outcomevirtual realityweight gainweight recoveryworkshopHumanitiesSocial interactionAguera Zaidaedt1302775Jiménez-Murcia SusanaedtAguera ZaidaothJiménez-Murcia SusanaothBOOK9910557561003321Advances in Eating Disorders3026553UNINA
