Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Response - NO
Brief Summary   Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation  is FDA approved treatment for Obsessive compulsive disorder. As the disorder causes significant distress and dysfunction study has not been done for resistant cases of OCD wich account for 30 % of total cases.This creates a gap in the management of resistant cases of OCD.
Our study is aimed at adjunctive  treatment of resistant cases of OCD where the medications will not be changed during course of  therapy and results will be analysed subsequently.
