Frontal Synchronization Biases in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is one of the most common neuropsychiatric disorder in the community. Several neuroimaging systems shows that OCD causes functional disorders in the frontal lobe. In this study, the effects of the OCD on the frontal part are investigated with Inter-Channels Phase Clustering (ICPC) method. According to the Significant desynchronization was detected in slow EEG bands for 7 electrodes on the frontal lobe. These findings are consistent with the previous results that obtained by other neuroimaging devices. The results are also showed that loss of frontal synchronization cause functional disconnectivity. In addition to this, it can be concluded that OCD may cause many cognitive dysfunctions, such as loss of memory.
