Objective: This review aimed to measure the degree of placebo response in panic disorder. Data Sources: We searched major databases up to 31 January 2021, for randomized pharmacotherapy trials published in English. Study Selection: A total of 43 studies met inclusion criteria to be in the analysis (with 174 separate outcome measurements). Data Extraction: Changes in outcome measures from baseline in the placebo group were used to estimate modified Cohen’s d effect size. Results: A total of 43 trials (2392 subjects, 174 outcomes using 27 rating scales) were included in the meta-analysis. Overall placebo effect size was 0.57 (95% confidence interval = [0.50, 0.64]), heterogeneity ( I2: 96.3%). Higher placebo effect size was observed among clinician-rated scales compared to patient reports (0.75 vs 0.35) and among general symptom and anxiety scales compared to panic symptoms and depression scales (0.92 and 0.64 vs 0.56 and 0.54, respectively). There was an upward trend in effect size over the publication period ( r = 0.02, p = 0.002) that was only significant among clinician-rated scales ( r = 0.02, p = 0.011). There was no significant publication bias, Egger’s test ( p = 0.08). Conclusion: We observed a substantial placebo effect size in panic disorder. This effect was more prominent for some aspects of panic disorder psychopathology than for others and was correlated with the source of the assessment and publication year. This finding has implications both for research design, to address the heterogeneity and diversity in placebo responses, and for clinical practice to ensure optimal quality of care. Systematic review registration number: PROSPERO, CRD42019125979.

Введение. В силу существенной схожести симптомов острого респираторного синдрома SARS-CoV-2 и панического расстройства (ПР), диагностика представляет значительные трудности. ПР имеют тенденцию развиваться хронически, с рецидивами на протяжении всей жизни. Цель работы: выявить особенности клинического проявления ПА/ПР на фоне COVID-19 и обосновать оптимальную схему терапии. Методы. Проведен анализ данных 86 пациентов, у которых диагностировано ПР при обращении на консультативный неврологический прием КФ UMC с мая 2020 г по май 2021 г. Скрининг панического расстройства проведен по Шкале тревоги Шихана (Sheehan Anxiety Rating Scale, ShARS). Результаты. Среди пациентов было 54 (62,8%) женщины и 32(37,2%) мужчины. По шкале ShARS тяжелым тревожное расстройство (80 баллов и выше) определено у 39 (45,3%), у остальных тревога (от 30 до 80 баллов) - клинически выраженная. Диагноз ПР у 21(24,4%) был диагностирован ранее заражения ковидной инфекцией. У остальных, выставлен впервые 26 (30,2%) пациентам, ранее не обращавшихся к неврологу и 39 (45,3%) пациентам, обращавшихся к неврологу с диагнозами соматоформная вегетативная дисфункция, сосудистая цефалгия, мигрень, обсессивно-компульсивное расстройство. Бронхиальная астма отмечалась в анамнезе в 13 (15,1%) случаях. Разновидности панических приступов были расценены как большие (развернутые) ПР (4 симптома и более) - у 55 (64%), в остальных случаях как симптоматически бедные. Особенность течения ПР на фоне SARS-CoV-2 определяется возникновением на фоне ипохондрических фобий. В то же время агорафобии и избегающего поведения, характерных для ПР, не отмечалось. Заключение. Использование бензодиазепинов для анксиолитических целей, противоастматических препаратов может быть контрпродуктивным в лечении тревожных расстройств. Ятрогенный риск наслаивается на возможную гипокалиемию, удлинение интервала QTc, артериальную гипертензию, вызванную COVID-19. Оценка результатов проведённого нейрофармакологического анализа и назначения препаратов анксиолитического действия Бифрен, в более тяжелых случаях ПР Прегабина показала клинический положительный эффект. Introduction. Due to the significant similarity between the symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 acute respiratory syndrome and panic disorder (PD), diagnosis presents significant difficulties. PD tend to develop chronically, with lifelong relapses. Purpose of the work: to identify the features of the clinical manifestation of PD in the presence of COVID-19 and to substantiate the optimal therapy regimen. Methods. We analyzed the data of 86 patients who were diagnosed with PD when they applied for a consultative neurological appointment CF UMC from May 2020 to May 2021. Panic disorder was screened according to the Sheehan Anxiety Rating Scale (ShARS). Results. Among the patients there were 54 (62.8%) women and 32 (37.2%) men. On the ShARS scale, severe anxiety disorder (80 points and higher) was identified in 39 (45.3%), in the rest anxiety (from 30 to 80 points) was clinically expressed. The diagnosis of PD in 21 (24.4%) was diagnosed earlier than contracting a covid infection. The rest were exposed for the first time to 26 (30.2%) patients who had not previously visited a neurologist and 39 (45.3%) patients who visited a neurologist with diagnoses of somatoform autonomic dysfunction, vascular cephalgia, migraine, obsessive-compulsive disorder. A history of bronchial asthma was observed in 13 (15.1%) cases. The types of panic attacks were regarded as large (extensive) PR (4 symptoms or more) - in 55 (64%), in other cases as symptomatically poor. The peculiarity of the course of PR against the background of SARS-CoV-2 is determined by the occurrence of hypochondriac phobias against the background. At the same time, agoraphobia and avoidant behavior characteristic of PD were not observed. Conclusion. The use of benzodiazepines for anxiolytic purposes, anti-asthma drugs may be counterproductive in the treatment of anxiety disorders. The iatrogenic risk is superimposed on possible hypokalemia, prolongation of the QTc interval, arterial hypertension caused by COVID-19. Evaluation of the results of the neuropharmacological analysis and the appointment of drugs with anxiolytic action Bifren, in more severe cases of Pregabin in PR showed a clinical positive effect.

Abstract The older African American (AA) population is expected to triple by 2050; however, research on depression, anxiety, and alcohol use among older AAs is lacking. Current mental health and substance use studies involving older AAs often focus on between-race differences, frequently comparing AAs to Whites, without addressing within-group variation in the former. As such, little is known about the associations between depression, anxiety, alcohol use and related disorders in this population. The present study used data from 2016-2017 Midlife in the United States (MIDUS) Milwaukee 2 to examine whether depressive and anxiety symptoms and disorders are associated with alcohol use and alcohol problems among 274 African Americans aged 50 to 93 (62.8% women). Of the sample, 9.5%, 3.6%, and 6.6% met criteria for depression, generalized anxiety (GAD), and panic disorders, respectively. About 8.1% had drank heavily and 18.5% binge drank in the past month with 10.2% reporting alcohol problems in the past year. Those with depression and those with panic disorder were more likely to be heavy drinkers; while only those with panic disorder were more likely to be binge drinkers. Meeting criteria for depression or panic disorder but not GAD disorder were both more likely to have had alcohol-related problems than those not meeting criteria. Only panic disorder was associated with increased likelihood of drinking more than intended in the past year. Preliminary exploratory findings suggest that the associations between depressive symptoms, type of anxiety disorder, alcohol use, and problems varied by gender.
