摘要
The putamen has been proposed to play a critical role in the development of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The primary objective of this study was to examine the resting-state regional activity and functional connectivity patterns of the putamen in individuals diagnosed with OCD. To achieve this, we employed resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) to collect data from a sample of 45 OCD patients and 53 healthy control participants. We aimed to use the regional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) analysis to generate the ROI masks of the putamen and then conduct the whole brain functional connectivity of the putamen in individuals with OCD. Compared to controls, the OCD group demonstrated decreased ALFF in bilateral putamen. The right putamen also displayed decreased FC with the left putamen extending to the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG), bilateral precuneus extending to calcarine, the right middle occipital cortex extending to the right middle temporal cortex, and the left middle occipital gyrus. The decreased connectivity between the right putamen and the left IFG was negatively correlated with Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive scale (Y-BOCS) Obsession Scores. This study aimed to reveal the putamen changes in resting-state activity and connectivity in OCD patients, highlighting the significance of aberrant ALFF/FC of the putamen is a key characteristic of OCD.
