MDMA-Assisted CBT for OCD (MDMA-CBT4OCD Study)
The study assesses the safety and preliminary effectiveness of MDMA-assisted cognitive behavioral therapy in participants diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
Identifying Local Field Potential Biomarkers for Obsessive-compulsive Disorder Treatment With Deep Brain Stimulation
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a complex and severe mental illness characterized by multiple symptoms and is considered a leading cause of non-fatal health loss. However, nearly 20% of patients do not respond to standard pharmacological or psychological treatments. Currently, we lack objective brain-based biomarkers. To address this issue, we used …
The Efficacy of Temporal Interference Stimulation in the Treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Temporal Interference (TI) stimulation in treating patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and to explore its potential neural mechanisms using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electroencephalography (EEG).
Mechanisms of Exposure Therapy for OCD
Exposure therapy is the most effective treatment available for obsessive compulsive disorder, yet up to 50% of patients do not recover because the mechanisms underlying successful response are poorly understood, leading to significant variability in how clinicians conduct exposure therapy. The main purpose of this study is to determine which …
Improving Obsessive-compulsive Disorder Treatments: from Lesions to Neuromodulation Targets
While in most cases of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) a cause cannot be identified, this syndrome may develop as a consequence of focal brain lesions. Neuropsychiatric disorders secondary to brain insults are open windows to understand their underlying neurobiology. Different neuroimaging analysis methods, including pooled lesion topography and lesion network mapping, …
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Improving Targeting Precision
When comparing targeting precision between DBS in parkinsonian patients and OCD patients, an unexpected deviation from the planned targets was discovered in OCD patients (Nuttin et al., 2013). The objective of this trial is to investigate whether the use of a micro-electrode assisted technique improves targeting precision in DBS at …
Effect of a Family-Based CBT Self-Help Intervention for Adolescents With OCD
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if self-help book can be used to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adolescents aged 10 to 17. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can adolescents and their parents effectively reduce the severity of the obsessive-compulsive symptoms in adolescents who …
Gamified Combined Cognitive Bias Modification in Adults Diagnosed With OCD: Randomized Controlled Trial
This randomized controlled trial examines the effects of a mobile-based gamified combined cognitive bias modification (CBM-C) intervention on obsessive-compulsive symptoms, obsessive beliefs, attentional and interpretation biases, depressive symptoms, and psychological distress. The gamified CBM-C condition is compared to a standard mobile-based CBM-C and a placebo control condition. All interventions are …
Precision Analytic Research Methods in OCD
Psychiatric disorders characterized by compulsivity, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), result in considerable functional impairment and many individuals do not respond to gold-standard treatments. Compulsivity has long been thought to occur due to exaggerated habits and reduced goal-directed control, although more recently, this conceptualization of compulsivity as an imbalance of …
Accelerated rTMS in Hospitalized Patients With OCD: a Feasibility and Mechanistic Study
This study investigates a new treatment approach for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), a condition characterized by unwanted repetitive thoughts and behaviors. The goal is to determine whether combining specialized inpatient care with repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is feasible, well-tolerated, and effective. rTMS is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic pulses …
