Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a neuropsychiatric condition affecting 1-3% of the population. Typically, symptoms start in adolescence or early adulthood, are time-consuming, and have a significant impact on quality of life. However, first-line approved treatments, based on a combination of pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy, are ineffective in at least 50% of cases. Since the pathophysiology of OCD remains largely unknown, it is expected that a better understanding of the biological mechanisms of OCD would contribute to improved strategies for treatment of the disorder. Current neurobiological models for OCD highlight the role of corticostriatal dysfunction and hyperactivity of the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), a part of the prefrontal cortex. Indeed, the lateral OFC plays a crucial role in controlling transitions between automatic, repetitive stimulus-response driven behaviors, and behaviors that reflect the acquisition, by the agent, of a predictive model of the consequences of each action. Previous studies have suggested that the ability to operate this transition is compromised in OCD and may be objectively measured using specifically designed Reinforcement Learning (RL) tasks. Furthermore, growing evidence has suggested that OCD may be associated with systemic immune dysfunction, as has been shown in other common neuropsychiatric conditions, such as depressive disorders. Indeed, there is evidence to support OCD-like symptoms occurring acutely in children after streptococcal infection. These findings have raised the hypothesis that vulnerable individuals exposed to pro-inflammatory early-life environmental risk factors, such as infections and childhood adversity, may suffer neuroinflammatory-induced dysfunction in corticostriatal pathways, increasing the risk of OCD psychopathology. In this case-control study, the investigators propose an integrative approach to address how structural, functional, and metabolic brain changes involving the corticostriatal circuit correlate with performance in an RL task, as well as with peripheral blood markers of immune dysfunction and associated environmental risk factors such as infection and childhood trauma. Furthermore, since neuromodulation of the prefrontal cortex, using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), has recently received FDA clearance for adjunctive treatment in patients with OCD, these associations will be further explored in patients treated with this method. Indeed, in patients with OCD enrolled in the study upon referral to the rTMS Programme for OCD at the Champalimaud Clinical Centre, a follow-up visit will be conducted after the end of treatment (30 sessions of excitatory rTMS over the medial prefrontal cortex). In this subgroup of participants with longitudinal assessment, we will measure change in study parameters and the associations between such change and the clinical effects of treatment, as well as prediction of treatment effects according to baseline assessments.
