Summary
This study tested a mobile app that delivers cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on its own for adults whose panic disorder hasn't improved with standard treatments. 45 participants used the app for eight weeks, covering skills like relaxation and changing unhelpful thoughts. The goal was to see if the app could reduce anxiety and improve quality of life.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a convenient, low-cost way to help people with hard-to-treat panic disorder manage their symptoms.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with no placebo group, so results may not be reliable. The app is meant to ease symptoms, not cure the condition.
