High-Dose Benzodiazepine Users' Perceptions and Experiences of Anterograde Amnesia.
This study was a qualitative exploration of high-dose benzodiazepine users' experiences of anterograde amnesia symptoms and their beliefs about their behavior during the phases of memory impairment in a nonforensic setting. Users subjectively reported experiencing symptoms of anterograde amnesia, especially after combining short-acting benzodiazepines with alcohol, but only rarely when using slow-onset, long-acting compounds. They perceived their experiences as unpleasurable, unpredictable, and embarrassing. Their awareness developed with time, triggered by descriptions of disinhibited and erratic behavior by others.

17.1 Examining the Impact of COVID-19 on Adolescents With Eating Disorders
There is a noticeable lack of evidence regarding the impact of COVID-19 and the associated lockdown on young people with eating disorders (EDs). The goals of this study were to: 1) examine characteristics of adolescents presenting for ED assessment since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic; 2) compare adolescents presenting for ED assessment since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic to those that presented for assessment 1 year previously; and 3) examine implications of the pandemic on the system of care.

15.1 avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder: origins, neurobiology, and psychopharmacology
Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is a new and understudied disorder that is associated with higher rates of comorbid mental health and life-threatening medical conditions than other eating disorders. To date, evidence-based treatment guidelines are lacking. This review summarizes the available literature on the pharmacologic treatment of ARFID, in the context of the biology of taste preference, to determine whether certain options are particularly efficacious.

ConclusionsConsistent with ecological and social-cognitive theories, adolescents look to their friends and family in making healthy food choices. The relationships uncovered by this study describe some of the contextual, interpersonal influences associated with diet quality among low-income, urban African-American adolescents and warrant further exploration in future intervention studies.

The algorithm method: how internet dating became everyone's route to a perfect love match
Six million Britons are looking for their perfect partner online before Valentine's day on Friday, but their chance of success may depend on clever maths rather than charismaIn the Summer of 2012, Chris McKinlay was finishing his maths dissertation at the University of California in Los Angeles. It meant a lot of late nights as he ran complex calculations through a powerful supercomputer in the early hours of the morning, when computing time was cheap. While his work hummed away, he whiled away time on online dating sites, but he didn't have a lot of luck – until one night, when he noted a connection between the two acti...

Questioning the Dietary Acculturation Paradox: A Mixed-Methods Study of the Relationship between Food and Ethnic Identity in a Group of Mexican-American Women
Conclusions This study raises questions about the nature of the “dietary acculturation paradox.” While food—the eating of Mexican foods—is central to the maintenance of ethnic identity throughout acculturation, negative perceptions about the healthfulness of Mexican foods introduce tension into Mexican-American women’s self-identification. This study suggests a subtle contradiction that may help to explain the dietary acculturation paradox: While previous research has suggested that as Mexicans acculturate to the United States they adopt unhealthy diets, this study finds evidence that they do so at least in part ...

5 things parents should know about eating disorders
Dr. Sara Forman, director of Boston Children’s Hospital’s Outpatient Eating Disorders Program, and Dr. Tracy Richmond, director of the PREP weight management program in Adolescent Medicine, share five things parents should know about eating disorders. Kids don’t have to be really thin to have an eating disorder. Not everyone with an eating disorder looks like he or she has an eating disorder. The condition is often hidden in secret habits or obsessions. For example, binge eating and bulimia — or binging and purging — are common eating disorders not necessarily associated with thinness.
