Progression of limited symptom attacks.
To study the progression of limited symptom attacks (LSAs) to panic attacks, we screened a community sample for LSAs using the Structured Clinical Interview of the DSM-IIIR initially and one year thereafter. Of 21 subjects with LSAs initially, 4 (19%) reported progression of their LSAs to panic attacks after one year.
