A matter of time: A systematic scoping review on a potential role of the circadian system in binge eating behavior.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Emerging research suggests that food intake timing, eating behavior and food preference are associated with aspects of the circadian system function but the role that the circadian system may play in binge eating (BE) behavior in humans remains unclear.

Objective

To systematically evaluate the evidence for circadian system involvement in BE behavior.

Methods

Systematic searches of PubMed, EMBASE, and Scopus were performed for reports published from inception until May 2020 (PROSPERO Registration CRD42020186325). Searches were conducted by combining Medical Subject Headings related to the circadian system, BE behavior, and/or interventions. Observational and interventional studies in humans with BE behavior published in peer-review journals in the English la
