Prevalence of all relevant eating disorders in patients waiting for bariatric surgery: A comparison between patients with and without eating disorders
OBJECTIVE:
To study the prevalence of all relevant eating disorders in 157 obese patients waiting for bariatric surgery. Another aim was to explore for possible differences between gender, and those with and without ED. The dependent variables were: socio-demographic characteristics, BMI, obesity onset, and obesity-related somatic diseases.
METHODS:
ED was assessed using the self-report questionnaire, “Eating Disorders in Obesity” (EDO). The patients answered a questionnaire that targeted socio-demographic and health information.
RESULTS:
Subgroups were based on the patients responses to items on the EDO: 1 patient (0.6%) with Bulimia Nervosa (BN), 6 (3.8%) with Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (EDNOS), 21 (13.4%) with Binge Eating Disorder (BED), and 23 (14.6%) with Binge Eating (BE). The patients in the EDNOS group were those who lacked one criterion of the BN diagnosis. The patients in the BE group lacked one criterion of the BED diagnosis. Twenty-eight (17.8%) fulfilled the DSM-IV-TR criteria for ED. When patients with BE were added, 51 patients (32.5%) were identified with ED or sub-threshold ED. In the explorative part of the study, no gender differences in socio-demographic variables, BMI, obesity onset, and obesity-related somatic diseases emerged. With the exception of age, no differences were found in these variables between those with and without ED.
CONCLUSION:
Employing all relevant eating disorders and binge eating symptoms (BE) for this population identified patients with pathological eating behaviors, which are not detected in previous studies measuring only BED and BE.

Greenland: Political Structure of Self-Government
This paper treats Greenlandic Home Rule which was founded in 1979. More specifically, this paper addresses (1) the contradiction between Greenlandic development and decolonization, (2) the ideological development in Greenland during the 1960s and how that shaped the political system in place when Home Rule was adopted, and (3) the centrality of the Home Rule authority. In a general sense, it is possible to speak of the Greenlandic Home Rule \"state.\"

The Integrative and Cultural Role of Hunting and Subsistence in Greenland
Au Groenland, il existe deux modes de production qui co-existent et s'interpénétrent étroitement: la pêche industrielle ou commerciale d'une part, la chasse et la pêche de subsistance d'autre part. A partir d'exemples tirés du village de Saqqaq, cet article souligne le rôle intégrateur et culturel de la chasse au phoque et au beluga, et de la pêche traditionnelle. L'analyse de ces exemples montre que la distinction entre ce qui est commercial et ce qui ne l'est pas n'a pas vraiment de sens dans le contexte groenlandais. Two modes of production coexist in Greenland and they are inextricably bound together: industrial or commercial fishing on the one hand, subsistence hunting and fishing on the other. On the basis of examples drawn from the settlement of Saqqaq, this paper highlights the integrative and cultural functions of sealing, beluga hunting and traditional fishing. Analysis of these examples shows that in the Greenlandic context the differentiation between commercial and non-commercial is meaningless.
