Smoking status and psychosocial factors in binge eating disorder and bulimia nervosa
2016, Eating BehaviorsCitation Excerpt :Although widespread public health campaigns and policies have helped to decrease the prevalence of smoking in the United States, currently 18.1% of US adults smoke cigarettes (Agaku, King, Dube, & Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2014). Though smoking is driven by multiple factors, some of the most common reasons that people smoke are the perceived impact of cigarettes on weight, eating, and mood (Crisp, Sedgwick, Halek, Joughin, & Humphrey, 1999). Nicotine suppresses appetite (Jo, Talmage, & Role, 2002) and decreases food intake (Donny, Caggiula, Weaver, Levin, & Sved, 2011; Mineur et al., 2011) through mechanisms that are not fully understood but are likely a result of both physiological and behavioral factors (Audrain-McGovern & Benowitz, 2011).
Does Cigarette Use Influence Adiposity or Height in Adolescence?
2008, Annals of EpidemiologyCitation Excerpt :In a recent study (26), nicotine was associated with a decreased level of growth hormone in smokers (particularly in female smokers), and this could represent a possible pathophysiologic mechanism underlying the impact of active smoking on growth in youth. Given that most industrialized countries are in the midst of an obesity epidemic (27, 28) and that some adolescents may view cigarette smoking as a weight-control strategy (29–31), it is important to better understand the association between smoking and indicators of growth and adiposity in young persons. We used data from a longitudinal cohort study to investigate whether cigarette use affects height and/or adiposity among adolescents.
Effects of adolescent nicotine and SR 147778 (Surinabant) administration on food intake, somatic growth and metabolic parameters in rats
2008, NeuropharmacologyCitation Excerpt :Female sex hormones and the development of body fat in puberty may play an important role in this effect. It is worth mentioning that gender differences in emotional responses to nicotine have been also reported in both animal and human studies (Crisp et al., 1999; Perkins et al., 1999; File et al., 2001; Marco et al., 2006; Guillon et al., 2007). During the last years, an important body of evidence has emerged involving the endocannabinoid in the regulation of appetite, eating behaviour and body weight.
