Background:.The Overviews of Systematic Reviews (SRs) are devoloped by The Cochrane Collaboration in order to compile the results of multiple SRs for specific clinical condition. There are 5 SRs of psychosocial interventions for one or more Eating Disorders (EDs) published in The Cochrane Library up to now. Due to the high rate of relapse, chronicity and the possibility of migration of a type of Eating Disorder to another, a single document that presents the scientific evidence on psychosocial interventions can facilitate the decision making in health. Objective: To conduct an Overview of Cochrane Systematic Reviews on the effectiveness of psychosocial interventions in treatment of EDs. Methods: We performed a critical evaluation of all Cochrane Systematic Reviews (CSRs) published in The Cochrane Library about psychosocial interventions for EDs. The AMSTAR instrument with 11 items was used for evaluate the quality of included SRs. Results: Five CSRs were included (90 studies, 5487 participants), as shown in the Table 1. The main outcome analyzed was symptomatic remission. The categories of EDs were analyzed separately (Anorexia Nervosa (AN); Bulimia Nervosa (BN); Binge Eating (BED); (EDs). All 5 CSRs were assessed as high quality according to the AMSTAR. Conclusions: Current evidences suggest that for AN, Family Therapy may be effective for younger patients; For BN and BED, Cognitive Behavior Therapy is effective and your combination with antidepressants too, despite likely side effects; For BED, self-help may be effective as first step and less for BN also. However, are required further studies with larger samples, which analyses treatments according to ages, chronicity of disease, psychiatric comorbidities (especially anxiety and depression) and subtypes of EDs. Furthermore, preventive and promotional strategies are needed as well as the dissemination of knowledge on EDs for health professionals in general.
