This study found that adolescent girls with anorexia nervosa had lower hair cortisol concentrations compared to healthy and psychiatric controls.

In this study conducted at a pediatric clinic in southern Jordan, researchers found that picky eating is linked to lower serum zinc levels, lower weight for age, and deficiencies in hemoglobin and vitamin D, indicating a broader range of nutritional deficiencies than just zinc deficiency.

This review discusses the use of very low-calorie ketogenic diets for obesity management and provides recommendations for nutrition experts, but reports no new clinical results.

This pilot study observed that post-bariatric surgery, both zinc and iron deficiencies increased among Iraqi patients, underscoring the importance of lifelong nutritional monitoring and targeted supplementation to address these issues and prevent related complications.

This case report highlights that a restrictive rice milk diet in a young child led to kwashiorkor with severe malnutrition, skin changes, and developmental regression, which improved with a protein-rich therapeutic diet.

In this study, picky eating among children in southern Jordan was associated with lower weight for age, hemoglobin levels, and vitamin D levels, rather than directly with zinc deficiency.

In this study, inducing zinc deficiency in recently weaned female Tan rabbits led to reduced food consumption, weight loss, and reproductive issues, including inactive uterine and ovarian changes.

These guidelines recommend testing thyroid function in patients with obesity due to common hypothyroidism, and highlight that weight loss is crucial for addressing hormonal imbalances, with only modest weight loss benefits from treating endocrine disorders.

The man has a disease causing skin patches, thickened nerves, and mild muscle weakness.

In this case report, an 11-year-old girl with hypothyroidism was found to have Hashimoto thyroiditis after presenting with hair loss, short stature, and pubertal disturbances; the study emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and personalized thyroid hormone therapy for better outcomes.

This review highlights that medical complications, notably in anorexia nervosa, are common and often serious in patients with eating disorders, affecting multiple organ systems.

In this study, researchers observed that pregnant women who were overweight or obese before pregnancy had lower iron concentrations in serum and hair, as well as lower dietary iron intake, during their first trimester compared to women with normal body weight.

In this study, the average force required to pluck hair was significantly lower in malnourished adults, especially those with kwashiorkor, compared to well-nourished individuals.

In this case study, increasing daily calories and adding resistance training led to a 35% increase in resting metabolism and a 3% reduction in body fat over six weeks.

This study reported that patients experienced significant hair loss, attributed to telogen effluvium, after rapid weight loss from a vigorous diet, but hair regrowth occurred within several months.

Skin changes can help identify eating disorders early.

This review examines nutritional deficiencies after bariatric surgery, particularly in essential minerals like zinc and copper, and highlights the need for more research to improve post-surgery nutritional outcomes.

This study found that in adolescents with excess weight and obesity, vitamin D levels are inversely correlated with leptin and positively correlated with adiponectin, influencing metabolic exchange criteria.

In this study, 56% of patients with hypothyroidism had dry, coarse skin, while weight gain and lethargy were also common complaints.

In this source, it is highlighted that dermatologists can identify and manage eating disorders early, potentially improving outcomes and reducing irreversible damage from malnutrition, though specific results are not reported.

In this controlled registry study, 8 years of testosterone therapy in hypogonadal men led to a significant decrease in waist circumference, weight, and BMI compared to those without the therapy.

This review discusses the link between nutritional deficiencies and cutaneous diseases, outlining risk factors, disease presentations, diagnostic processes, and supplementation in undernourished patients, but reports no new results.

In this study, women with severe hair loss after bariatric surgery had lower zinc intake compared to those with mild hair loss, suggesting a possible link between zinc consumption and hair loss severity.

This study found that low BMI may increase the risk of developing chilblains in individuals exposed to cold weather, with many patients experiencing recurrent lesions each winter.

Eating disorders can cause various hair problems, and while hair loss in these disorders is linked to metabolic syndrome, treatment focuses on specific medications and lifestyle changes for the syndrome.

In this study, patients who underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery lost significant weight and improved obesity-related complications, but experienced increased hair loss and needed careful calcium and protein management.

This study found significant weight loss and reductions in blood pressure and serum triglycerides among obese patients following a multidisciplinary program with a very low calorie ketogenic diet.

In this study, the prevalence of skin changes in hospitalized children with acute illness, categorized by nutritional status, was lower than previously reported, and the SKORDoK tool was less reliable for dermatological assessment using photographs.

This pilot study found that a very low-carbohydrate eating pattern, combined with supportive affect and mindful eating skills, was feasible and acceptable for weight management in young women with obesity, with 50% of participants losing at least 5% of their body weight over four months.
