The authors investigated the role of genetic factors in 35% CO2-induced panic attacks.
Ninety twins recruited from the general population were challenged with one-vital-capacity inhalations of 35% CO2-65% O2. Probandwise concordance rates were calculated and rates compared for monozygotic and for dizygotic twins.
A significantly higher concordance was found for 35% CO2-induced panic attacks among monozygotic than dizygotic twins (55.6% versus 12.5%).
These results suggest a relevant role of genetic factors in 35% CO2-induced panic attacks.
作者研究了遗传因素在35%二氧化碳诱发惊恐发作中的作用。
从普通人群中招募了90对双胞胎,让他们进行一次肺活量吸入35%二氧化碳 - 65%氧气的激发试验。计算先证者一致率,并比较同卵双胞胎和异卵双胞胎的一致率。
发现同卵双胞胎中由35%二氧化碳诱发的惊恐发作一致率显著高于异卵双胞胎(55.6%对12.5%)。
这些结果表明遗传因素在35%二氧化碳诱发的惊恐发作中起相关作用。
