title: Reactivity to challenge with carbon dioxide as a prospective predictor of panic attacks.
abstract: Fear responding induced by carbon dioxide was prospectively evaluated as a risk factor for the development of anxiety pathology in a nonclinical sample (N=404) followed for 2 years. Baseline response to a CO(2) challenge was a very strong predictor of future panic attacks (though not for panic disorder or other anxiety disorders).
