Clinical data at first admission and at discharge in 289 inpatients with AN (children: n = 72; adolescents: n = 217) from a German multicenter, web-based registry for consecutively enrolled patients with childhood and adolescent AN were analyzed. Inclusion criteria were a maximum age of 18 years, first inpatient treatment due to AN, and a BMI <10th BMI percentile at admission. Compared to adolescents, children with AN had a shorter duration of illness before admission (median: 6.0 months vs. 8.0 months, p = 0.004) and higher BMI percentiles at admission (median: 0.7 vs. 0.2, p = 0.004) as well as at discharge (median: 19.3 vs. 15.1, p = 0.011). Thus, in our study, children with AN exhibited clinical characteristics that have been associated with better outcomes, including higher admission and discharge BMI percentile. Future studies should examine whether these factors are actually associated with positive long-term outcomes in children. 4950 https://doi.org/10.3390/nu11112593$xR$3Volltext$534 4950 https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:8-mods-2020-00472-2$xR$3Volltext$534 4961 https://macau.uni-kiel.de/receive/macau_mods_00000882 5051 610 5550 Adolescent 5550 Adolescents 5550 Aging 5550 Anorexia Nervosa 5550 Anorexia Nervosa 5550 BMI 5550 Child 5550 Children 5550 Clinical Characteristics 5550 Female 5550 Hospitalization 5550 Humans 5550 Inpatients 5550 Male 5550 Outcome 5550 Patient Discharge
