In addition, male patients should be more observed, since they showed lower chance of response to GCBT when compared to women. Patients with more severe global symptoms (CGI) are poorer responders to GCBT, which indicates that not only obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS) should be evaluated, since other symptoms, such as depression and anxiety, may affect the treatment; therefore, an attempt to reduce these symptoms, prior to the treatment of OCD, should be considered as an option in some cases.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eurpsy.2008.12.001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,2,12]],"date-time":"2009-02-12T04:39:01Z","timestamp":1234413541000},"page":"297-306","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":54,"title":["Predictors
