Body image and eating behavior in young adults born preterm
ABSTRACT Objective Previous studies have suggested that people born preterm have increased rates of eating disorders (ED). However, a recent study suggested lower levels of ED‐related symptoms in the extreme group of adults born preterm with very low birth weight (<1,500 g). We examined symptoms...

However, a recent study suggested lower levels of ED‐related symptoms in the extreme group of adults born preterm with very low birth weight (<1,500 g). We examined symptoms related to EDs in adults born early (<34 weeks of gestational age) or late (34 to <37 weeks of gestational age) preterm. Methods We studied young adults (mean age 24.1 years) from two birth cohorts: ESTER (Northern Finland 1985–1989) and AYLS (Uusimaa, Finland, 1985–1986). Of the participants, 185 were born early preterm, 348 late preterm, and 637 were term‐born controls ( N = 1,170). They completed three subscales of the Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI)−2, including Drive for Thinness (DT), Body Dissatisfaction (BD), and Bulimia (B). Group differences were examined by linear regression. Results Young women born early preterm scored 4.1 points (95% CI −8.0, −0.2, P =.04) lower in summed EDI subscale scores than women born at term, when adjusted for age and cohort. This difference was observed also in DT and BD but not for B subscales. The differences persisted after adjustments for current, pre‐ and neonatal characteristics. We did not observe differences in EDI scores among men or women born late preterm when compared to controls. Discussion Women born early preterm have significantly fewer symptoms related to EDs in early adulthood when compared to their peers born at term, which may protect from developing an ED. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
