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 …
Safety and Efficacy of Pramipexole Treatment in Resistant Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
The most common and effective treatment for OCD is pharmacological therapy that includes selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) antidepressants and, in the case of patients resistant to this approach, a combination with antipsychotics. Risperidone and aripiprazole are atypical antipsychotics that act on dopamine (D2) and serotonin receptors. Studies have shown …
Reducing Maximal Support in OCD: Efficacy of Stepped-Care Online CBT
This study is conducted to explore the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of stepped-care internet-based cognitive behavior therapy (sc-ICBT) with reduced support compared to cognitive-behavioral group therapy(CBGT), to identify the optimal transition points for shorter effective stepped treatments, to find clinical indicators that can predict the effectiveness of CBT interventions, and to …
Deep Brain Stimulation for Obsessive-compulsive Disorder
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the treatment method of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients diagnosed with severe and treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). DBS will be administered into the brain area of the bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BNST). The main research questions are: Does active …
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 …
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Psychotherapy for Treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
This study will test how people with OCD respond to a type of noninvasive brain stimulation, repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS), when it is combined with psychotherapy. Participants will either engage in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) Therapy or supportive therapy (ST) while receiving rTMS. Biobehavioral data from wearable devices …
