Two children presenting symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and with acquired toxoplasmosis are described and the possibility of a previously rarely reported association between OCD and acquired toxoplasmosis is discussed. Case 1 is a 14-year-old boy with Tourette syndrome (TS), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in partial remission and a three-year history of OCD referred to our department due to an acute deterioration of obsessive-compulsive (OC) symptoms. Case 2 is an 11-year-old boy referred to our department because of a two-year history of OCD. The OC symptoms were observed immediately following an infection. In both cases laboratory tests confirmed the diagnosis of acquired toxoplasmosis. The pharmacological therapy of T.gondi infection without any psychopharmacological treatment caused remission or significant improvement regarding OC symptoms.

Diabetes is associated with increased risk for eating disorders, various dependent on type of diabetes. Binge eating disorder is more common in patient with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Whereas, intentional omission of insulin doses for the purpose of weight loss occurs mainly in patient with type 1 diabetes (T1DM), however, in some patients with type 2 diabetes omission of oral hypoglycemic drugs can be present. Risk factors for the development of eating disorders in patients with diabetes include: age, female gender, greater body weight, body image dissatisfaction, history of dieting and history of depression. Poor glycemic control, recurrent episodes of ketoacidosis or recurrent episodes of hypoglycemia, secondary to intentional insulin overdose, missed clinical appointments, dietary manipulation and low self-esteem should raise concern. The consequence of eating disorders or disordered eating patterns in patients with diabetes is poor glycemic control and hence higher possibility of complications such as nephropathy, retinopathy and premature death.
