Marked ascites and serum carbohydrate antigen (CA) 125 elevation in a patient with anorexia nervosa
Abstract
These findings suggest, for psychiatrically hospitalized adolescent females, that different patterns of factors may contribute to the maintenance of eating and body image disturbances across ethnic groups. Future research testing models of the etiology or maintenance of these disturbances needs to include ethnicity to ascertain whether the hypothesized components operate differently by ethnicity. © 2005 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
