The frequency of AN in schizophrenia has been approximated
to be between 1 and 4% [11, 24]; the comorbidity
between these disorders seems to vary with sex, at 0.81% for
men and 4.01% for women, as found by Gotestam et al. in
a large outpatient Norwegian psychiatric population, using
a staff-report questionnaire [25]. Interestingly, men with
AN are 3.6 times more likely to present with an associated
diagnosis of schizophrenia than women [24].
AN can occur as a symptom on the spectrum of manifestations
of schizophrenia, and overlapping symptoms in
the psychopathology of schizophrenia and AN (such as
distortion of body image and fear of being fat) are frequently
observed. AN may precede or follow schizophrenia. For
example, many male patients who are diagnosed with AN
are found to have schizophrenia several years after the initial
diagnosis
