Resting‐state functional connectivity maps with the seed in the left inferior ventral striatum (VS). Compared with HCs (n = 20), OCD participants (n = 23) demonstrated significantly reduced connectivity of the left inferior VS with the left anterior cingulate cortex (ACC; x, y, z = −8, 36, 12; cluster size = 42 voxels; P
cor < 0.05). Reduced connectivity with the left medial orbitofrontal cortex (OFC; x, y, z = −6, 34, −18; cluster size = 40 voxels) was also detected, though this finding did not meet statistical thresholding after correcting for multiple comparisons (P
unc = 0.002). Sagittal (top row) and axial (bottom row) images are presented. L, left hemisphere; R, right hemisphere.
