Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The benzodiazepine antagonist, flumazenil, can provoke panic attacks in some panic disorder patients. It has been predicted that panic responses to flumazenil may be associated with situational fear. Patients with social phobia frequently experience situational anxiety and panic attacks. The current study tested whether flumazenil induces panic in patients with social phobia. Fourteen patients with social phobia (DSM-III-R) and 14 age- and sex-matched controls were tested in a single session, double blind crossover challenge design, using intravenous flumazenil 2 mg/20 ml or matched placebo infusions 1 hour apart. Panic attacks occurred during flumazenil challenge in 2/14 subjects with social phobia. The rate of panic attacks and the severity of panic symptoms following flumazenil were not significantly greater in patients than in controls. Situational fears that are provoked by social cues therefore do not predict panic responses to flumazenil.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
