Title: Thyroid disorders in female psychiatric patients with panic disorder or agoraphobia. Author: Orenstein H, Peskind A, Raskind MA. Journal: Am J Psychiatry; 1988 Nov; 145(11):1428-30.

A personal history of hyperthyroidism or goiter was found almost exclusively in the subgroup of patients with panic/agoraphobia who also had a lifetime history of major depression.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
