Explainable artificial intelligence in ICU admission prediction for methanol poisoning patients: a comparative study of deep and machine learning models.

Eating behaviors are shaped by sociocultural and emotional influences that can affect individuals’ relationship with food and body image throughout life. Body- and food-related issues, which disproportionately affect women, often emerge during childhood and adolescence, two critical periods for the development of eating- and body-related attitudes. Early experiences during these years can have lasting implications for women’s relationships with food, health, and well-being in adulthood. Accordingly, examining how childhood and adolescent memories shape adult women’s eating behaviors remains an important area of inquiry. The prevalence of disordered eating behaviors and certain eating disorders has increased over recent decades, particularly among adolescent girls and young women. This trend has been partly attributed to sociocultural pressures related to body appearance, including media exposure, perceived pressure to be thin, and internalization of thinness ideals, which contribute to disordered eating attitudes and behaviors among women. The Tripartite Influence Model of Body Image and Eating Disturbances is a key theoretical framework in this field, emphasizing the role of the social environment in the development of body dissatisfaction and subsequent disordered eating among women. Body dissatisfaction and disordered eating behaviors often emerge early in development. Evidence indicates that some girls express concern about weight and eating as early as age five and are already familiar with dieting concepts by this age. These concerns typically intensify during adolescence, a period recognized as a heightened risk for the onset of eating disorders and related symptoms due to substantial physical, social, and emotional changes. Exposure to weight- or body-related messages from peers and the media further contributes to maladaptive eating cognitions, including fear of weight gain, body dissatisfaction, and low self-esteem. Family influences also play a critical role, as the home environment shapes eating behaviors and attitudes through parental practices such as modeling and shared family meals during childhood. During adolescence, parental behaviors may additionally reinforce negative sociocultural messages conveyed by peers and media.
