Systematic review (October 2025, MDPI Nutrients) provides strongest current evidence synthesis: 'To date, no clinical evidence links GLP-1RA use to the onset or worsening of AN.' Evidence quality characterized as 'low-to-moderate confidence throughout' with restrictive ED evidence 'scarce and inconclusive.' Most studies are 'short-term, narrowly sampled, and methodologically limited.'

Dr. Aaron Keshen reports EDs developing 'in people who take drugs as prescribed' supporting direct causality, while Dr. Anjali Pandit states 'not seeing this frequently' suggesting prescriber screening matters significantly. This is not a scientific debate about interpretation of shared data — it's a pre-data debate where different clinical populations and practices produce different observed patterns. Keshen's observation supports pharmacological causation; Pandit's suggests population selection (careful screening prevents cases). The divergence itself is evidence of the current state: we are in the clinical pattern recognition phase before systematic epidemiological data. NBC News notes 'no drug label warnings about ED risk currently exist' and the Collaborative of Eating Disorders Organizations is 'calling for mandatory screening before prescribing' — regulatory and professional responses to uncertainty rather than established risk. This represents the characteristic evidence gap where case reports accumulate but incidence rates, risk factors, and causal pathways remain unquantified.

Systematic review characterizes current evidence state as 'low-to-moderate confidence throughout' with BED/BN findings 'preliminary' and restrictive ED evidence 'scarce and inconclusive.' Explicitly identifies methodological limitations: 'most studies are short-term, narrowly sampled, and methodologically limited.' Long-term follow-up data (>1 year) identified as missing.

Review frames GLP-1RAs as 'at the intersection of medical innovation and psychological risk' requiring 'integrated psychological monitoring within multidisciplinary care.' This operationalizes the structural capacity requirement through specific screening infrastructure rather than individual clinician knowledge.

# GLP-1 eating disorder screening protocol combining SCOFF questionnaire, recent ED history review, and compensatory behavior assessment is recommended for pre-treatment risk stratification
The systematic review identifies a specific pre-treatment screening protocol for GLP-1 receptor agonist prescribing: (1) SCOFF questionnaire administration, (2) recent ED history review, (3) assessment for compensatory behaviors, and (4) weight-suppression history evaluation. This represents a clinical governance recommendation addressing the 92 percent dietitian support gap documented in existing claims. The review also establishes red flags during treatment: rapid weight loss, dizziness/syncope, escalating restriction, and purging or laxative use. This screening infrastructure addresses the structural capacity gap identified in glp1-eating-disorder-screening-gap-structural-capacity-not-clinical-knowledge. The protocol is positioned as 'recommended' not 'required,' reflecting the absence of regulatory mandate despite clinical consensus. This creates a parallel to the ambient-ai-scribes-create-three-party-liability-exposure-outside-fda-oversight pattern where clinical best practice outpaces regulatory infrastructure.

This confirms the pharmacological mechanism operates through existing vulnerability, not de novo ED creation.

Systematic review refines mechanism: 'Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea and vomiting may complicate treatment, particularly in patients with purging behaviours, where these side effects could inadvertently reinforce or exacerbate existing cycles' — critically qualifies as 'existing cycles' not de novo induction. Requires pre-existing behavioral vulnerability markers: high perfectionism, obsessive-compulsive traits, elevated baseline emotional eating, mixed binge-purge patterns, weight suppression history.

# GLP-1-induced GI side effects may reinforce pre-existing purging cycles but no clinical evidence supports de novo eating disorder induction in patients without behavioral vulnerability
This systematic review provides the strongest current evidence synthesis on GLP-1 receptor agonists and eating disorder risk. The review explicitly states: 'To date, no clinical evidence links GLP-1RA use to the onset or worsening of AN.' This is a definitive closure of the de novo causation hypothesis for anorexia nervosa. The review identifies that 'gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea and vomiting may complicate treatment, particularly in patients with purging behaviours, where these side effects could inadvertently reinforce or exacerbate existing cycles' — critically, the qualifier is 'existing cycles,' not new onset. The mechanism requires pre-existing behavioral vulnerability: vulnerability markers include high perfectionism, obsessive-compulsive traits, elevated baseline emotional eating, mixed binge-purge patterns, and weight suppression history. The review characterizes evidence quality as 'low-to-moderate confidence throughout' with BED/BN findings 'preliminary' and restrictive ED evidence 'scarce and inconclusive.' This closes the GI-mediated purging disconfirmation hypothesis from session 36 — the pharmacological pathway requires behavioral substrate.

The AgRP silencing mechanism strengthens the case for mandatory (not just recommended) pre-treatment screening. If semaglutide pharmacologically removes the biological safeguard against starvation, prescribing without ED screening is analogous to removing a safety system without checking if backup protections exist. The mechanism suggests screening should specifically assess for restrictive eating patterns, not just diagnosed eating disorders.
