Obsessive-compulsive symptoms and related sex differences in brain structure:An MRI study in dutch twins
Neuroimaging studies have indicated abnormalities in cortico-striato- thalamo-cortical circuits in obsessive-compulsive disorder patients, but results have not been consistent. Since there are significant sex differences in human brain anatomy and obsessive-compulsive symptomatology and its developmental trajectories tend to be distinct in males and females, we investigated whether sex is a potential source of heterogeneity in neuroimaging studies on obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
