Genetic Biomarkers of Panic Disorder: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT: (1) Background: Although panic disorder (PD) is one of the most common anxiety disorders severely impacting quality of life, no effective genetic testing exists; known data on possible genetic biomarkers is often scattered and unsystematic which complicates further studies.
