ABSTRACT
Objective. To evaluate the relationship between hyperinsulinism and binge eating disorder (BED) in patients with obesity treated at
the Naval Specialties Hospital of Veracruz.
Materials and methods. An observational, cross-sectional, and analytical study was
conducted, with a non-probabilistic sampling of patients between 18 and 65 years of age with a BMI ›25 kg/m
², during the period from
August 2023 to May 2024. The Binge Eating Scale (BES) was applied and variables such as glycated hemoglobin and HOMA-IR were
analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics with SPSS v26.
Results. A total of 411 patients (163 men and 248 women) were
included, with a mean age of 42 ± 11 years. BED was identified in 49% of the participants, with a higher prevalence in women (p =
0.000). The type of obesity was significantly associated with BED, with obesity type I and obesity grade II predominating in those who
presented the disorder (p=0.000). Hyperinsulinemia was detected in 25% of the sample, being more frequent in men (p=0.0019). A
significant statistical difference was found between the group with BED and the presence of hyperinsulinism (t=7.7, p=0.0000), with
an odds ratio (OR=7.7, 95% CI 4.4–13.5), indicating that BED increases the risk of hyperinsulinism 7.7-fold.
Conclusion. BED was
the most prevalent eating disorder in this population with obesity, and a relationship was established between the presence of this
disorder and hyperinsulinism. These findings demonstrate the need for a comprehensive approach that considers both metabolic and
psychological factors for effective treatment of obesity.
