(A and B) SCRs recorded in patients with PTSD were similar in the acquisition and extinction phases at baseline and in the postoperative period. During the recall of extinguished stimuli (CS+ E), but not the recall of nonextinguished stimuli (CS+ NE), patients with PTSD treated with DBS had a significant decrease (P = 0.03) in SCR values compared to baseline, with values reaching levels similar to those observed in age/sex matched controls (CTL; C and D). Asterisk (*) indicates significant differences.
