Values presented as mean ± SEM or median (interquartile range). The Student t-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test were used for comparison of AN-0 and AN-1 groups for parametric and

non-parametric data, respectively.

AN: Anorexia Nervosa; HC; Healthy Controls; AN-0: AN subjects who did not gain ≥10% BMI at 6 or 12 months; AN-1: AN subjects who gained ≥10% BMI by 6 or 12 months. % Cal: percent calories obtained from respective macronutrients.
