About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

This prospective observational cohort study investigated serum α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase levels in drug-naïve patients with Panic Disorder (PD) at baseline and after six weeks of follow-up and compared them with healthy controls (HC). Associations between enzyme levels, symptom severity, and inflammatory markers were examined. The study aimed to evaluate whether α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase levels are associated with PD symptom severity and inflammatory parameters.

The 2 groups in the trial

  • Panic Disorder (PD)

    Drug-naïve adult participants (18-65 years) diagnosed with Panic Disorder according to DSM-5-TR criteria. Participants were evaluated at baseline and after 6 weeks of routine clinical treatment. No intervention was assigned by the study protocol. Blood samples were collected for measurement of serum α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase levels and inflammatory parameters. Clinical symptom severity was assessed using the DSM-5 Panic Disorder Scale (PDS).

    Treatment: No intervention was assigned as part of the research protocol.

  • Healthy Control (HC)

    Healthy control adult participants (18-65 years) without any current or past psychiatric disorder. No intervention was administered as part of the research protocol. Participants underwent a baseline clinical evaluation and provided a single blood sample for measurement of serum α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase levels and complete blood count inflammatory markers.

    Treatment: No intervention was assigned as part of the research protocol.
