Abstract

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common and often debilitating psychiatric illness. Recent advances in the understanding of the neuroscience of OCD have provided valuable insights that have begun to transform the way we think about the management of this disorder. This educational review provides an integrated neuroscience perspective on formulation and treatment planning for patients with OCD. The article is organized around key neuroscience themes most relevant for OCD. An integrated neuroscience formulation of OCD is predicated on a fundamental understanding of phenomenology and symptom dimensions, fear conditioning and extinction, neurochemistry, genetics and animal models, as well as neurocircuitry and neurotherapeutics. Symptom dimensions provide a means to better understand the phenotypic heterogeneity within OCD with an eye toward more personalized treatments. The concept of abnormal fear extinction is central to OCD and to the underlying therapeutic mechanism of exposure and response prevention. A framework for understanding the neurochemistry of OCD focuses on both traditional monoaminergic systems and more recent evidence of glutamatergic and γ-aminobutyric acid-ergic dysfunction. Obsessive-compulsive disorde...Continue Reading
