Background. sexual abuse may be associated with poorer weight loss outcomes following bariatric treatment. identifying predictors of abuse would enable focused screening and may increase weight management success. methods. we analyzed data from 500 consecutively recruited obese subjects from a population-based,regional bariatric program. the prevalence of self-reported sexual abuse was ascertained using a single interview question. health status was measured using a visual analogue scale (vas). multivariable logistic regression was performed to identify sexual abuse predictors. results. the mean age was 43.7 y (sd 9.6),441 (88.2%) were females,458 (91.8%) were white,and the mean body mass index (bmi) was 47.9 kg/m2 (sd 8.1). the self-reported prevalence of past abuse was 21.8% (95% ci 18.4-25.4%). abused subjects had worse health status (vas score 53.1 (sd 21.2) versus 58.0 (sd 20.1),p = 0.03). bmi was not associated with abuse (p > 0.5). age,sex,bmi,and covariate-adjusted independent predictors of abuse included alcohol addiction (adjusted odds ratio 15.8; 95% ci 4.0-62.8),posttraumatic stress disorder (4.9; 2.5-9.5),borderline personality (3.8; 1.0-13.8),depression (2.4; 1.3-4.3),and lower household income (3.4; 1.6-7.0). conclusions. abuse was common amongst obese patients managed in a population-based bariatric program; alcohol addiction,psychiatric comorbidities,and low-income status were highly associated with sexual abuse. © 2013 danielle l. gabert et al.
