The authors assessed airway impedance responses to psychological stressors among 113 individuals: 61 with asthma only (AS), 10 with asthma and panic disorder (ASPD), 24 with panic disorder only (PD), and 18 controls with neither condition (CON). Individuals with either AS or PD were affected by psychological stressors as measured by the forced oscillation technique. Individuals with PD (with or without AS) displayed lower airway impedance than those without PD. These data suggest that the airways of individuals with PD are in a chronic state of preparedness, which may promote hyperventilation.
作者评估了113名个体对心理应激源的气道阻力反应：61名仅患有哮喘（AS），10名患有哮喘和惊恐障碍（ASPD），24名仅患有惊恐障碍（PD），以及18名无上述任何疾病的对照者（CON）。通过强迫振荡技术测量发现，患有AS或PD的个体受心理应激源影响。患有PD（无论是否患有AS）的个体气道阻力低于无PD的个体。这些数据表明，患有PD的个体气道处于慢性准备状态，这可能会促进通气过度。
