NEDA TOOLKIT for Parents Management of Eating Disorders A systematic review conducted by RTI International, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Evidence-based Practice Center This systematic review of the literature focused on key questions concerning anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and eating disorders not otherwise specified (i.e., especially binge eating disorder) to address questions posed by the American Psychiatric Association and Laureate Psychiatric Clinic and Hospital through AHRQ. Funding was provided by AHRQ, the Office of Research on Women’s Health at the National Institutes of Health, and the Health Resources and Services Administration. We received guidance and input from a Technical Expert Panel. This report was also published as four separate articles in the International Journal of Eating Disorders in 2007.
