    Abstract Background: Many young women are dissatisfied with their bodies. This study investigated the effect on current body dissatisfaction levels of a newly developed evaluative conditioning procedure that paired self-similar and self-dissimilar images of bodies with positive and neutral affective images, respectively. We hypothesized that learning the contingency that self-similar bodies predict positive affectivity is one process that could aid in explaining how these procedures function.
    Methods: Adult women without disordered eating pathology participated in an online experiment with random assignment to an intervention or a control condition. All participants initially rated body images in self-similarity and were subsequently asked to categorize positive and neutral images by valence as quickly and accurately as possible. In the intervention condition, self-similar bodies systematically preceded positive images, and self-dissimilar images preceded neutral images, creating a similar body → positive contingency. Pairings in the control condition were unsystematic such that no contingency was present. We measured categorization latencies and accuracies to infer contingency learning as well as current body dissatisfaction immediately before and after exposure to the pairings. All participants further completed measures of trait body image concerns and disordered eating psychopathology at baseline, which we examined as moderators of an expected relation between condition assignment, contingency learning, and body dissatisfaction improvements.
    Results: We analyzed data from N = 173 women fulfilling the inclusion criteria. Moderated mediation analyses showed that assignment to the intervention (vs. control) condition predicted increased similar body → positive contingency learning, which in turn predicted improved body dissatisfaction post-intervention, but only among women with higher pre-existing trait body image concerns or disordered eating levels.
    Conclusions: The findings point toward the relevancy of further exploring the utility of pairing procedures. Similar body → positive contingency learning predicted improved body dissatisfaction in individuals with normatively high body image concerns, which suggests pairing procedures could help inform future research on reducing body dissatisfaction.

    Title translation Gender Inequalities of the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Synthesis of Systematic Reviews with a Focus on Sexual and Gender Minorities.
    Abstract Objective: From the very beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, gender was shown to play a significant role in how people were affected by it, while aspects related to sexual and gender minorities (SGM) have been rather understudied. The aim of this review was to synthesize systematic reviews and meta-analyses that explicitly addressed the impact of gender within the context of the pandemic, with a focus on SGM.
    Methods: We based the narrative synthesis of results on a literature search of PubMed. We included systematic reviews and meta-analyses as of 2019 with an identifiable gender comparison or SGM reference and a specified clinical outcome.
    Results: The search yielded 2 658 hits; 29 systematic reviews were included for content synthesis. Of these, we identified 23 systematic reviews with gender comparisons and 8 related to SGM. Men showed higher prevalence, severity, and mortality of COVID-19 compared with women, but the psychological consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic affected women more compared with men. Evidence suggests that women are at higher risk for Long-COVID-19. SGM experienced increased mental health problems during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to the general population.
    Discussion: It appears that biological and social risks led to differential susceptibility to infection and manifestation of COVID-19 disease and also accounted for differences in mortality between men and women. Insights on prevalence, disease burden, and mortality among SGM during the COVID-19 pandemic are lacking. This suggests an underrepresentation of SGM in COVID-19-related research. Despite the abundance of COVID-19 publications, gender effects have not often been explicitly and adequately studied.
    Conclusion: Future studies should examine gender differences and needs and concerns of SGM in mental disorders and further understudied entities like Long-COVID-19, to gain insights and help to provide preventive measures and adequate treatments for all, for potential future pandemics as well.

    Abstract Ziel der Studie: Schon zu Beginn der Pandemie zeigte sich, dass das Geschlecht eine maßgebliche Rolle bei der Art und Weise spielt, wie Menschen von COVID-19 betroffen waren, wobei bei der Betrachtung von Geschlechtseffekten Aspekte von Personen aus sexuellen und geschlechtlichen Minderheiten (SGM) insgesamt weniger untersucht wurden. Ziel dieser Übersicht ist daher eine Synthese systematischer Reviews und Meta-Analysen zum Thema Geschlecht und COVID-19, unter Berücksichtigung von SGM.
    Methodik: Die narrative Synthese der Ergebnisse basiert auf einer Literaturrecherche in PubMed. Eingeschlossen wurden systematische Reviews und/oder Meta-Analysen ab 2019 mit einem erkennbaren Geschlechtervergleich oder SGM-Bezug und einem klinischen COVID-19 Outcome.
    Ergebnisse: Die Suche ergab 2 658 Treffer, 29 systematische Reviews wurden für die inhaltliche Synthese inkludiert. Davon konnten wir 23 systematische Reviews mit Geschlechtervergleichen und 8 mit Bezug zu SGM identifizieren. Männer zeigten im Vergleich zu Frauen eine höhere Prävalenz, einen höheren Schweregrad und eine höhere Mortalität von COVID-19. Die psychischen Folgen der COVID-19 Pandemie haben Frauen im Vergleich zu Männern stärker betroffen. Es gibt Hinweise darauf, dass Frauen ein höheres Risiko für Long-COVID-19 haben. SGM erlebten während der COVID-19-Pandemie verstärkt psychische Gesundheitsprobleme im Vergleich zur Gesamtbevölkerung.
    Diskussion: Es zeigt sich, dass biologische und soziale Risiken zu unterschiedlicher Infektionsanfälligkeit und Manifestation einer COVID-19 Erkrankung führten und auch Unterschiede in der Mortalität zwischen Männern und Frauen begründeten. Einblicke zu Prävalenz, Krankheitslast und Mortalität bei SGM während der COVID-19 Pandemie fehlen. Dies deutet auf eine Unterrepräsentation von SGM in der COVID-19 bezogenen Forschung. Trotz der Fülle an COVID-19-Publikationen wurden Geschlechtereffekte oft nicht explizit und ausreichend untersucht.
    Schlussfolgerung: Zukünftige Studien sollten Geschlechterunterschiede und Bedarfe und Anliegen von SGM in Bezug auf weitere psychische Störungen und bislang wenig untersuchte Entitäten wie Long-COVID-19 untersuchen, um Erkenntnisse für präventive Maßnahmen und adäquate Behandlungen für alle, auch für künftige Pandemien, zu liefern.

  7. Article: All I Need Is Two: The Clinical Potential of Adding Evaluative Pairing Procedures to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Changing Self-, Body- and Food-Related Evaluations.

    Abstract Pairing procedures are among the most frequently used paradigms for modifying evaluations of target stimuli related to oneself, an object, or a specific situation due to their repeated pairing with evaluative sources, such as positive or negative images or words. Because altered patterns of evaluations can be linked to the emergence and maintenance of disordered cognitions and behaviors, it has been suggested that pairing procedures may provide a simple yet effective means of complementing more complex intervention approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Here, we summarize recent studies that explored the clinical potential of pairing procedures for improving self-esteem, body satisfaction, and food and consumption preferences. While no study has yet combined pairing procedures with CBT, there are several successful examples of pairing procedures in clinically relevant domains and clinical populations. We discuss potential sources of heterogeneity among findings, provide methodological recommendations, and conclude that pairing procedures may bear clinical potential as an add-on to classical psychotherapy.

    Abstract Background: Eating disorders are seen mainly as a problem affecting women, not just by the public at large, but also in specialized circles. Although it is true that more women than men suffer from all types of eating disorder, pertinent reviews have clearly shown that they do indeed occur in men, and that the available evidence on the matter is limited. The stigmatization of men with eating disorders makes it harder for these men, and for the relevant professionals, to recognize the symptoms and to seek or provide help.
    Methods: This review is based on publications retrieved by a selective search in PubMed on the epidemiological, diagnostic, clinical, and therapeutic aspects of eating disorders in men.
    Results: Current estimated lifetime prevalences in men are 0.2% for anorexia nervosa, 0.6% for bulimia nervosa, and 1% for bingeeating disorder; the corresponding figures for women are 1.4%, 1.9%, and 2.8%. Men and women may display different manifestations. Women are thought to be mainly seeking a slim figure and weight reduction; men, a muscular build. The established Germanlanguage screening and diagnostic tools, however, do not cover the types of symptoms that are more common in men. Little is known about whether treatment yields comparable results in men and women.
    Conclusion: It is important to combat the stigmati - zation of men with eating disorders and to remove the obstacles to their appropriate diagnosis and treatment. The current methods of screening and diagnosis need to be adapted to take account of the special aspects of abnormal eating behavior in men. It remains unclear whether and how the disorderspecific treatment of these conditions in men should differ from their treatment in women.

    Abstract Eating disorders (EDs) are often stereotyped as affecting the SWAG, that is, as affecting mostly skinny, White, affluent girls. Over the last decade, however, significant progress has been made toward increasing diversity in ED research. There is consensus that EDs affect individuals of all genders, ages, sexual orientations, ethnic, and socio-economic backgrounds, with recent studies exploring social determinants of ED etiology, ED presentation, and developing diversity-affirming ED assessments. This article provides a brief summary of current developments related to diversity as a research theme, and proposes different perspectives toward further improving diversity in ED research. Specifically, we argue for exploring the role of diversity in ED treatment settings and outcomes, for pursuing diversity-oriented research pro-actively rather than as a reaction to issues of under-representation, and for integrating diversity across different areas of medical education and trainings in psychotherapy. Limitations with respect to the paucity of research, and the link between diversity as a research theme and ED-related workforce diversity are discussed.

    Title translation Gesundheitliche Themen von LSBTIQ+Personen in der ärztlichen Ausbildung in Deutschland.
    Abstract Aims: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex and queer (LGBTIQ +) persons continue to experience discrimination and disadvantage in many areas of life, including healthcare. Studies indicate that LGBTIQ+persons show high rates of chronic physical and mental illness on the one hand, and report negative experiences with health care providers on the other hand. The aim of this work is to point towards barriers and the provision of inadequate health care for LGBTIQ+persons, and to draw attention to relevant gaps in medical education in Germany, needing to be followed by specific actions.
    Methods: For these purposes, both scientific evidence for the disadvantage of LGBTIQ+persons within the health care system and important innovative interventions in the education of medical personnel are presented and discussed.
    Results: A variety of different - in terms of scope, format, and content - training programs have already been tested and established, mainly in English-speaking regions of the world. In contrast, medical training in Germany lacks such programs.
    Conclusions: Raising awareness and expanding the training of medical students to include LGBTIQ+health topics is of great importance in Germany.
