- W4386314446 abstract "Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a debilitating mental health condition that is largely resistant to conventional treatments, such as pharmacotherapy and behavioural interventions. Individualized noninvasive brain stimulation techniques such as transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) might be capable of successfully treating OCD through modulation of dysfunctional neural circuitry. A randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, pilot clinical trial involving 25 OCD patients was conducted to investigate the efficacy of tACS in improving OCD severity. Treatments targeting the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) were self-administered at home for 6 weeks with a 3-month follow-up. Within the active group, each treatment was delivered at an individualized peak alpha frequency for 30 minutes, while the sham group received 2 blocks of 2-minute treatments at 25 Hz. The clinical severity of OCD and potential symptom improvements were quantified using serial measurements of the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (YBOCS), and a linear mixed model analysis was performed to estimate the time-condition effect. There was a significant time-condition interaction in the YBOCS from baseline to 6 weeks ( <math xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML id=M1> <mi>p</mi> <mo><</mo> <mn>0.0001</mn> </math> ), indicating that active alpha-tACS was significantly superior to sham in improving OCD severity. A trend-level effect remained at the 3-month follow-up, suggestive of a sustained level of improvement. Additionally, depressive symptoms also showed a significant improvement from baseline to follow-up. Our findings suggest that a six-week, home-based treatment course of individualized alpha-tACS targeting the mPFC is capable of improving OCD symptoms. Further large-scale clinical trials are required to definitively establish tACS as a therapy for OCD." @default.
