“…Adiponectin, an immunosuppressive adipokine, is inappropriately secreted in these patients [25][26][27]. There are several reports of NTM lung disease in patients suffering from anorexia nervosa [28,29], in whom impaired cellular immune response has been demonstrated [30]. Unexpectedly, we show that M. massiliense, unlike M. abscessus, affects young CF patients with severe malnutrition.…”

“…Furthermore, low BMI (<18.5 kg/m 2 ) is associated with a greater number of diseased lung segments and NTM-LD-specific mortality [ 69 , 72 ]. Interestingly, NTM-LD has been reported in younger women (ages 20–53 years old) diagnosed with anorexia nervosa [ 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 ]. In general, since NTM-LD is much less common in younger individuals than in the elderly, this lends credence to the possibility that a thin body habitus is a risk factor for NTM-LD.…”

Mycobacterium abscessus: It’s Complex

Mycobacterium abscessus (M. abscessus) is an opportunistic pathogen usually colonizing abnormal lung airways and is often seen in patients with cystic fibrosis. Currently, there is no vaccine available for M. abscessus in clinical development. The treatment of M. abscessus-related pulmonary diseases is peculiar due to intrinsic resistance to several commonly used antibiotics. The development of either prophylactic or therapeutic interventions for M. abscessus pulmonary infections is hindered by the absence of an adequate experimental animal model. In this review, we outline the critical elements related to M. abscessus virulence mechanisms, host–pathogen interactions, and treatment challenges associated with M. abscessus pulmonary infections. The challenges of effectively combating this pathogen include developing appropriate preclinical animal models of infection, developing proper diagnostics, and designing novel strategies for treating drug-resistant M. abscessus.

“…Lung infections due to opportunistic organisms and usually nonpathogenic mycobacteria have been described in patients with AN and no history of a preexisting pulmonary disease [110][111][112]. However, gastroesophageal disease and other causes of chronic aspiration (self-induced vomiting) may predispose patients with AN to develop bronchiectasis, and thus increase their risk for non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections [113].…”

Anorexia nervosa is a complex and deadly psychiatric disorder. It is characterized by a significant degree of both co-occurring psychiatric diseases and widespread physiological changes which affect nearly every organ system. It is important for clinicians to be aware of the varied consequences of this disorder. Given the high rate of mortality due to AN, there is a need for early recognition so that patients can be referred for appropriate medical and psychiatric care early in the course of the disorder. In this study, we present a comprehensive review of the recent literature describing medical findings commonly encountered in patients with AN. The varied and overlapping complications of AN affect pregnancy, psychological well-being, as well as bone, endocrine, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and pulmonary systems.
