Abstract
Current and past frequencies of respiratory diseases were assessed in 30 patients with panic disorder, 30 patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and 30 patients with eating disorders. Lifetime prevalence of respiratory disorders was significantly higher in patients with panic disorder (47%) than in patients with either obsessive-compulsive disorder (13%) or eating disorder (13%). Point prevalences showed no differences.Keywords
