“…For intake at the hunger quartiles (intake at minimum hunger, 25 were not significant. Similar to the pattern observed with intake at the fullness quartiles, most of the significant differences were observed between BED patients and normalweight controls, but differences were also observed with obese controls at the higher quartiles in the binge meal (see Fig.…”

“…Some physical processes underlying the perception and hunger and fullness appear to be disturbed among patients with BN, including gastric emptying, [17][18][19][20][21][22] release of the hormone cholecystokinin (CCK 18,23,24 ), gastric capacity, 19 and gastric relaxation. 25 One preliminary study investigating similar processes among patients with BED found that gastric capacity in patients with BED was larger than that of nonbinge eating overweight participants, but there was no evidence that gastric emptying was slowed or that release of the hormone CCK was altered among patients with BED. 26 Although this study provides some evidence for a disturbance in one physiological processes contributing to the development of satiety among patients with BED, 26 additional studies are needed to better understand the role of these physical processes in the maintenance of binge eating.…”

“…Within the BN literature, these studies examine stomach distention and capacity with balloons and barostats, medical devices used to maintain constant pressure in a closed chamber. The barostat is also the gold standard used to evaluate the stomach’s volume, filling and emptying (Geliebter et al, 1992; Geliebter and Hashim, 2001; Walsh et al, 2003; Zimmerli et al, 2006) and is frequently used in distention procedures.…”

“…As we learn more about this and other mechanisms promoting satiation, the information gained could have important health-related applications. Disruptions of gastrointestinal satiety mechanisms are thought to contribute substantially to obesity (3) and also to eating disorders, such as bulimia nervosa (9,10,12,33). While the central nervous system remains a hotbed for research in energy balance, we must also continue to elucidate the peripheral mechanisms of feeding control.…”
