Article Synopsis
- The study examined how pharmacotherapy (PT) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) influence brain glucose metabolism in adults with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) using PET scans.
- A total of 16 OCD patients were analyzed, focusing on changes in local metabolic rates before and after treatment, specifically in therapy responders versus non-responders.
- Results showed an increase in glucose metabolism in the right caudate for those who responded to therapy, which correlated with reduced OCD symptoms, differing from past studies which found no such increase.
