Official Title: Follow-Up Extension to the Family Study of Binge Eating Disorder

Brief Summary: This study involves a 2.5 and 5 year follow-up interview for individuals who participated in the initial family study of binge eating disorder. The study includes individuals with and without eating disorder as well as their first degree relatives. As part of the study, participants will be interviewed about their current psychiatric and medical symptoms, their blood pressure will be measured, and laboratory specimens will be obtained.

Detailed Summary: Previously we completed a family interview study of 150 individuals with binge eating disorder, 150 matched controls, and approximately 888 of their first degree relatives. In follow-up to this, we are interviewing these individuals again at 2.5 and 5 years after their initial interview. During the course of the interview, individuals are asked about their psychiatric and medical history and blood pressure and laboratory specimens are obtained to measure, among other things, fasting lipids and glucose.
