Case report: Non-linear evolution of oxytocin informs YBOCS changes post-DBS of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis for treatment resistant OCD
The findings suggest a significant non-linear evolution of oxytocin levels and a positive correlation with OCD symptom changes following BNST-DBS. Oxytocin levels could serve as a biomarker for DBS efficacy if this finding is replicated in larger studies.
