TL;DR: V vertebral BMAT increased significantly during high-calorie feeding and fasting, suggesting BMAT may have different functions in states of caloric excess compared with caloric deprivation, and immunomodulatory regulators in the marrow may provide further insight into the homeostatic function of this unique adipose tissue depot.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a 12-month longitudinal study including 46 premenopausal women (n = 26 with anorexia nervosa and n = 20 normal-weight controls) with a mean (s.e.m.) age of 28.2 ± 0.8 years.

TL;DR: Overfeeding and fasting for 10 days modulate brain activity in response to food stimuli, suggesting that in healthy adults, changes in energy balance affect saliency and reward value of food cues.

TL;DR: IGF-1 is strongly associated with estimated bone strength in the radius and tibia in women with anorexia nervosa and further studies are needed to assess whether treatment with recombinant human IGF-1 will further improve bone strength and reduce fracture risk in this population.
