OBJECTIVE: The quality of life of individuals with panic disorder and agoraphobia can be improved by the alleviation of agoraphobia. In other words, examining panic disorder in terms of whether agoraphobia is present is crucial. The current study examined panic disorder from this perspective.
METHODS: Subjects were 253 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for panic disorder (lifetime) according to the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI). Of those patients, 179 had agoraphobia and 74 did not. Statistical analysis was used to examine gender differences in the presence (or absence) of agoraphobia, comorbidities, and the effects of the presence of agoraphobia (severity, assessment of depression, assessment of anxiety, and personality) in these patients.
RESULTS: Results indicated gender differences in the presence (or absence) of agoraphobia. Compared to patients without agoraphobia, significantly more patients with agoraphobia were female (p<.001), and had a higher prevalence of comorbidities. Patients with agoraphobia had a higher suicide risk (p<.05), more hypomanic episodes (current) (p<.05), and more frequent episodes of social phobia (p<.05). In addition, patients with agoraphobia had more severe panic disorder and a higher level of neuroticism, sensitivity to anxiety, and trait anxiety [PDSS-J, P&A, NEO-N: p<.01, ASI, STAI (Trait Anxiety): p<.05].
CONCLUSIONS: The current findings suggest that when treating a panic disorder, diagnosing the presence of agoraphobia is extremely important.
