“…This is consistent with previous findings in other non-clinical samples (Jones et al, 2009;Ridout et al, 2010; and patients with clinical eating disorders (Jänsch et al, 2009;Kucharska-Pietura et al, 2004;Pollatos et al, 2008). However, contrary to predictions, this deficit was not more evident for negative emotions; although the high EDI group did recognise significantly fewer fear expressions than did the low EDI group, the largest group difference was for neutral expressions.…”

“…For example, there is a body of evidence demonstrating that patients with eating disorders exhibit impaired facial emotion recognition in comparison to healthy controls (Jänsch et al, 2009;Kucharska-Pietura et al, 2004;Pollatos et al, 2008). This deficit is also evident when participants are restricted to viewing just the eyes (Harrison et al, 2010a;2010b;Russell et al, 2009).…”

They also displayed biased attention away from emotional faces during later strategic processing, which is consistent with previously observed impairments in clinical samples. These differences were related to drive-for-thinness.Although we found no evidence of a bias towards angry faces, it is plausible that the observed impairments in emotion recognition and avoidance of emotional faces could disrupt social functioning and act as a risk factor for the development of eating disorders.

“…Difficulties in recognizing facially displayed emotions have been described, although it is not clear whether these are independent from alexithymia (Kessler, Schwarze, Filipic, Traue, von Wietersheim, 2006), and whether they are influenced by comorbid psychopathological conditions, such as depression (Mendlewicz, Linkowski, Bazelmans, Philippot, 2005;Manuel & Wade, 2013;Parling, Mortavazi, Gadheri, 2010). Apart from difficulties in the recognition of facial emotions, especially negative ones (i.e., sadness and fear), people with AN may show impairments in the recognition of emotions in voices, both positive and negative (particularly happiness and sadness) (Kucharska-Pietura, Nikolau, Masiak, Treasure, 2004).…”

Alexithymia, empathy, emotion identification and social inference in anorexia nervosa: A case-control study

et al. 2016

Alexithymia, difficulties in facial emotion recognition, poor socio-relational skills are typical of Anorexia Nervosa (AN). We assessed patients with AN and healthy controls (HCs) with mixed stimuli: questionnaires (Toronto Alexithymia Scale-TAS, Interpersonal Reactivity Index-IRI), photographs (Facial Emotion Identification Test-FEIT) and dynamic images (The Awareness of Social Inference Test-TASIT). TAS and IRI Personal Distress (PD) were higher in AN than HCs.Few or no differences emerged at the FEIT and TASIT, respectively. Despite higher levels of alexithymia, patients with AN seem to properly acknowledge others' emotions while being inhibited in the expression of their own.

Objective: To investigate the cause and nature of palpitations occurring at high altitude. Methods: Implantable loop recorders were inserted subcutaneously in the left pectoral region of 9 healthy male volunteers. Subjects flew to Kathmandu (1,250 m) and then Lukla (2,800 m) before immediately commencing an identical ascent and descent profile to high altitude. The loop recorders were activated with any episode of palpitations and during exercise, rest and sleep. Arterial oxygen saturation was assessed concomitant with device activation. Results: Above 5,000 m all subjects reported palpitations during exercise. All subjects demonstrated sinus tachycardia and marked sinus arrhythmia; one subject demonstrated atrial flutter; one subject had non-conducted p waves, and a further subject had marked ST segment depression. Conclusions: Significant arrhythmias occur at high altitude. In view of the increased risk of sudden cardiac death at high altitude, and considering that the elderly account for 15% of the 100 million visitors to altitude annually, further investigation is required.

The recognition of emotion in the faces and voice of anorexia nervosa

Abstract: People with anorexia nervosa have difficulty recognizing emotions from facial expression and vocal tone. This may contribute to poor interpersonal communication and a lack of empathy, both of which are associated with anorexia nervosa patients.
