Reduced Serum Soluble L‐Selectin Levels but Not <scp>PCSK9</scp> May Be Associated With Generalized Anxiety Disorder: A Case–Control Study
This study provides a better understanding of the relationship between inflammatory cytokines and GAD pathogenesis. The results indicate that sL-selectin, rather than PCSK9, may be associated with the pathophysiology of GAD. Still, more advanced investigations with greater sample sizes and extensive studies are essential to verify the probable diagnostic utility of serum sL-selectin levels.
