Gustation, or the sense of taste, is intrinsically linked to the anatomical structures located on the tongue. This organ's surface, along with the entirety of the oral cavity, is adorned with stratified squamous epithelium. Evident on the tongue are elevated structures known as papillae (singular = papilla), which house the mechanisms for the transduction of gustatory stimuli. Four distinct types of papillae exist, each identified by their unique morphological attributes: the circumvallate,...

Main Methods:

  • Convened UK-based researchers, clinicians, charity representatives, and individuals with lived experience.
  • Focused on programme-led and focused interventions for eating disorders.
  • Considered research, policy, and practice recommendations.

Main Results:

  • Programme-led interventions are suitable for diverse eating disorder presentations across all age groups.
  • Close medical and psychiatric risk monitoring is essential.
  • Terminology should avoid implying suboptimal treatment.

Conclusions:

  • Programme-led and focused interventions offer a viable solution to the eating disorder treatment demand-capacity gap.
  • These interventions are particularly crucial for children and young people.
  • Urgent cross-sectoral work is needed for evaluation and implementation.
