First seen Jan 30, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a simple carbon dioxide (CO2) breathing challenge can help doctors predict which patients with anxiety, OCD, PTSD, or panic disorder will not respond to exposure-based therapy. Researchers will enroll 600 adults aged 18-70 and measure their response to the CO2 test before starting therapy. The goal is to see if this easy-to-use biomarker can guide treatment decisions and save patients from ineffective therapy.
