Materials and Methods: Eighty-two type 2 diabetic patients were enrolled. The participants were assessed for eating disorders by a psychiatrist. Blood samples were drawn and HbA1c and other biochemical parameters were measured. Results: Of the 82 subjects, 27 (34.1%) met the criteria for BED. No other types of eating disorders were detected. HbA1c was significantly higher in individuals with BED (p< 0.05). Conclusion: Our findings reveal that BED is highly prevalent among type 2 diabetic patients and it impairs glycemic control. Thus, patients with type 2 diabetes should be assessed carefully for eating disorders.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBinge eatingdiabetes mellituseating disorderglycemic controlArticle15226272-s2.0-80054701906Q4WOS:000217315100002N/A
