Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Patients with psychosomatic disorders such as eating disorders and functional gastrointestinal disorders show poor self evaluation. Low self evaluation is relevant to onset and maintenace of the disorders. Social dysfunction by symptoms leads further impairment of self evaluation and these make a vicious circle. We conducted psychological evaluation of patients with eating disorders and acquired anatomical brain image, diffusion tensor image, and resting state functional magnetic resonance brain image. Patients of eating disorder showed poor Rosenberg's self-esteem scale score and showed thinner cortical surface in Precuneus and other regions than healthy controls. Resting state fMRI revealed that impaired functional connectivity between medial prefrontal cortex and temporal cortex which construct self-evaluation network.
