Voxel-Based Morphometry Study of Gray Matter Abnormalities in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
To examine regional abnormalities in the brains of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), we assessed the gray matter (GM) density using voxel-based morphometry (VBM). We compared magnetic resonance images (MRIs) acquired from 71 OCD patients and 71 age- and gender-matched normal controls and examined the relationship between GM density and various clinical variables in OCD patients...
متن کاملA Voxel Based Morphometry Study of Brain Gray Matter Volumes in Juvenile Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
INTRODUCTION Adult patients with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) have been shown to have gray matter (GM) volume differences from healthy controls in multiple regions - the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), medial frontal gyri (MFG), striatum, thalamus, and superior parietal lobule. However, there is paucity of data with regard to juvenile OCD. Hence, we examined ...
متن کاملBrain structural abnormalities in behavior therapy-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder revealed by voxel-based morphometry
BACKGROUND Although several functional imaging studies have demonstrated that behavior therapy (BT) modifies the neural circuits involved in the pathogenesis of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), the structural abnormalities underlying BT-resistant OCD remain unknown. METHODS In this study, we examined the existence of regional structural abnormalities in both the gray matter and the white ...
متن کاملGray Matter Abnormalities in the Inhibitory Circuitry of Young Binge Drinkers: A Voxel-Based Morphometry Study
Binge drinking (BD) is defined as a pattern of high alcohol intake in a short time followed by periods of abstinence. This behavior is very common in adolescence, a developmental stage characterized by the maturation of the prefrontal and striatal networks, important circuits underlying the capacity to control and regulate the behavior. In this study, we conducted a voxel-based morphometry (VBM...
متن کاملGray matter abnormalities associated with betel quid dependence: a voxel-based morphometry study.
BACKGROUND Betel quid dependence (BQD) patients have a cluster of cognitive, behavioral, and physiological symptoms which are associated with structural abnormalities in brain gray matter. However, so far there have neither been brain structural studies investigating the alterations related to BQD, nor studies assessing the brain structural changes with clinical indexes. METHODS 65 subjects w...
