Panic attacks linked to higher heart attack stroke risk in women
A study of 3,243 older women finds those with at least one full panic attack in six months face about a threefold increase in heart attack or stroke risk over five years. Researchers note stress hormones and heart rhythm disruption may underlie the link, even after accounting for smoking blood pressure inactivity and mood. The findings, based on memory rather than medical diagnoses, urge monitoring and cardiovascular risk reduction for women prone to panic attacks.
