Fasting levels of fatty acids and fatty acid ratios that significantly differed between restricting AN (purple) and binging and purging AN (green) subtypes when comparing ill (A,B) and recovered states (C,D). Bars and error bars represent covariate-adjusted mean and standard error of the mean, respectively. p represents the p-value from ANCOVA models comparing the two AN subtypes when adjusted for age, BMI, and assay batch. IAN: ill anorexia nervosa; RecAN: recovered anorexia nervosa; AN-R: restricting AN; AN-BP: binging and purging AN; n-3 PUFA: total n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ALA + stearidonic acid + 11,14,17-eicosatrienoic acid (ETE) + EPA + DPA + DHA); SFA: total saturated fatty acids (lauric acid + myristic acid + pentadecanoic acid + palmitic acid + margaric acid + stearic acid + arachidic acid).
