1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the anterior limb of the internal capsule (ALIC) is an emerging treatment for severe, refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The therapeutic effects of DBS are hypothesized to be mediated by direct modulation of a distributed cortico-striato-thalmo-cortical network underlying OCD symptoms. However, the exact underlying mechanism by which DBS exerts its therapeutic effects still remains unclear. Method: In five participants receiving DBS for severe, refractory OCD (3 responders, 2 non-responders), we conducted a DBS On/Off cycling paradigm during the acquisition of functional MRI to determine the network effects of stimulation across a variety of bipolar configurations. We also performed tractography using diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) to relate the functional impact of DBS to the underlying structural connectivity between active stimulation contacts and functional brain networks. Results: We found that therapeutic DBS had a distributed effect, suppressing BOLD activity within regions such as the orbitofrontal cortex, dorsomedial prefrontal cortex, and subthalamic nuclei compared to non-therapeutic configurations. Many of the regions suppressed by therapeutic DBS were components of the default mode network (DMN). Moreover, the estimated stimulation field from the therapeutic configurations exhibited significant structural connectivity to core nodes of the DMN. Conclusions: Therapeutic DBS for OCD suppresses BOLD activity within a distributed set of regions within the DMN relative to non-therapeutic configurations. We propose that these effects may be mediated by interruption of communication through structural white matter connections surrounding the DBS active contacts.
