Regrettably, there is limited research on the eating patterns and behaviours of AYA with SBH, as well as their body image perceptions.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title><jats:p>The purpose of this study was to explore the nature of disordered eating behaviours among AYA with SBH and their perceptions surrounding their body image. This study represents the first investigation of its kind conducted within a Canadian population. It fills a literature gap regarding the understanding of disordered eating behaviours and body image perceptions among young individuals with SBH in Canada.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study comprised a self\u2010report, cross\u2010sectional online survey of AYA with SBH across Canada. The survey comprised validated brief measures to evaluate eating behaviours, disordered eating and body esteem. AYA aged 12\u201326\u2009years with any type of SBH were eligible to participate.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Twenty\u2010four participants were recruited. Results indicated that AYA with SBH may face an elevated risk for eating disorders\/disordered eating compared to their typically developing peers, due to a myriad of reasons not typically experienced in the general population such as bowel and bladder management, mobility issues and eating aversions. Findings also indicated that some AYA with SBH may have poor body image and that it is possible that this is not discussed in SBH clinics.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our work underscores the urgency for further research that focuses on assessing eating disorders\/disordered eating behaviours in AYA with SBH.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/cch.70046","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,6]],"date-time":"2025-02-06T03:04:48Z","timestamp":1738811088000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Exploring the Extent and Nature of Disordered Eating Among Canadian Adolescents and Young Adults With Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"51","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9711-851X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Revi","family":"Bonder","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Bloorview Research Institute Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shauna","family":"Beaudoin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Programs &amp; Information Hydrocephalus Canada  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lorry","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Child Development Program Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5844-3953","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paige","family":"Church","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Divison of Neontology Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marie","family":"Hooper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Flourish Health Services  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Melissa","family":"Thorne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Spina Bifida and Spinal Cord Injury Clinic Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alene","family":"Toulany","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Adolescent Medicine Hospital for Sick Children  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4186-3200","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amy\u00a0C.","family":"McPherson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bloorview Research Institute Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital  Toronto Ontario Canada"},{"name":"SickKids Research Institute University of Toronto  Toronto Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"American Psychiatric Association.2013. \u201cDiagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders [Internet].\u201dArlington.","DOI":"10.1176\/appi.books.9780890425596"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2007-2329C"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/erv.2448"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3233\/PRM-200723"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_6_1","volume-title":"Eating Disorders and Obesity: A Comprehensive Handbook","author":"Brownell K.","year":"2017"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/02739610701766909"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_8_1","unstructured":"Canadian Eating Disorder Alliance.2019. \u201cThe Canadian Eating Disorders Strategy: 2019\u20132029 [Internet].\u201d Eating Disorders Association of Canada.https:\/\/nedic.ca\/media\/uploaded\/Canadian_Eating_Disorders_Strategy_2019\u20102029_\u2010_dps_\u2010_ENG.pdf."},{"key":"e_1_2_13_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pcl.2016.02.002"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0005-7967(00)00033-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_11_1","volume-title":"Body Image: A Handbook of Science, Practice, and Prevention","author":"Cash T.
