While ARFID is increasingly recognized within pediatric populations and specialist clinics, data on its prevalence and burden within the adult general population remain sparse.

The survey included the Nine\u2010Item ARFID Screen (NIAS), the Rome IV diagnostic questionnaire for disorders of gut\u2010brain interaction (e.g., irritable bowel syndrome, functional dyspepsia), and questions regarding demographics, body mass index, somatic symptoms, anxiety and depression, quality of life, and healthcare utilization.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Among 4002 participants (mean age 47.1\u2009years, 50% female), 26.0% screened positive for ARFID. Prevalence was significantly higher in females versus males (29.6% vs. 22.1%, OR 1.48, 95% CI 1.28\u20131.71) and varied by age: 18\u201339\u2009years (31.6%), 40\u201364\u2009years (25.0%), and \u2265\u200965\u2009years (16.1%;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001). Participants with a positive ARFID screen demonstrated significantly higher rates of underweight status, disorders of gut\u2010brain interaction, mood disturbances, somatic symptoms, reduced mental and physical quality of life, and increased healthcare utilization compared to unaffected individuals.
