NCT ID: NCT05670990 Withdrawn - Depression Clinical Trials

Equine Assisted Services in Children and Adolescents With Mental Illness

EASiCAM
Start date: March 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Due to an increasing amount of children and adolescents are suffering from mental illnesses i Sweden. Early preventive psychological interventions are important to avoid a long-time use of medicines. Animal assisted therapy and especially equine assisted services (EAS) has shown to be a good complementary method to decrease anxiety and/or depression in children and adolescents. The main aim is to study the effect of a specific EAS program regarding symptoms of mental illness and in long-term follow-up of future healthcare consumption. We will conduct interviews with both participants and their parents besides the questionnaires at follow-ups (12 weeks, and 1 year) The intervention will be EAS at a farm following a detailed program, the staff at the farm are specially trained with a certification to practice EAS. Each session will last for about 60 minutes, once a week. Participants will get information of the study by the child and youth psychiatry in the region of Skane, and from student´s health team at elementary schools. Those who want ti participate will contact the study coordinator for full information and informed consent. The EAS model has been used in treatment of adult with mental illness for many years, and the result are very positive. This project provides an opportunity to evaluate the effect of EAS to promote health and prevent severe manifest mental illness among children and adolescents. There are no previous studies of the long-term effect of EAS regarding health consumption.

NCT ID: NCT05246696 Withdrawn - Anorexia Nervosa Clinical Trials

Perceptions of Their Own Body and of the Body of Their Child Among Young Mothers With Anorexia Nervosa

BodyBabe2
Start date: June 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The BodyBabe studies aims to evaluate the perceptions that young mothers with anorexia nervosa (active or in remission) have of their own body and of the body of their child. The evaluations are carried out with self-assessment questionnaires and silhouette scales at three time points: D0 (during the stay at the maternity hospital), D15 (15 days after delivery) and M9 (9 months after delivery). The output expected from this study is to validate a questionnaire to help healthcare providers to adapt their care of women with anorexia nervosa during the pregnancy and the post-partum period.

NCT ID: NCT05039385 Withdrawn - Anorexia Clinical Trials

Exercise Program in Patients With Anorexia Nervosa (ESATRAL)

ESATRAL
Start date: September 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Excessive physical exercise is one of the main symptoms of anorexia and a common restrictive behavior used by patients, which is associated with less short- and long-term treatment success. Supervised exercise has shown these benefits in patients with anorexia: opportunity to learn and acquire knowledge and information on how to perform physical activity in a healthy, safe and moderate way, less feelings of incapacity; lower risk of relapse; prohibiting exercise during treatment can increase the likelihood that patients will revert to old patterns once therapy is completed. Exercise can be as effective as antidepressants and psychological therapies to treat some cases of depression present in anorexia. The objective of the ESATRAL program is to analyze the physiological, psychological, body composition, physical condition and functionality effects of a supervised strength-focused training program in patients with anorexia nervosa after hospital discharge. All participants are assessed at baseline, after 12 weeks, post-treatment (24 weeks), and at 9 months' post follow-up (36 weeks).

NCT ID: NCT04061304 Withdrawn - Anorexia Nervosa Clinical Trials

A Clinical Trial Into the Efficacy of rTMS Treatment for Treating Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa

Start date: June 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a pilot study to test the efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in treating individuals with Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa. The main objective of this study is to determine the short and long-term efficacy of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in reducing eating disorder symptoms (i.e. binging, purging, restricting, intense fear of gaining wait, etc;) in Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa. The investigators will also be comparing the brain activity patterns of individuals with Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa to healthy controls using electroencephalography (EEG). Further, the investigators would like to examine if the activation patterns in these patients change after receiving rTMS.

PRE-GAiN Bone Health Pilot Study

PRE-GAiN
Start date: January 21, 2020
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This study will assess the affects of an estradiol hemihydrate transdermal system on bone health in 24 adolescent females aged 12-19 years old with anorexia nervosa. Participants in this study will be randomized 1:1 into 2 groups. One group will receive treatment with a transdermal estrogen patch and the other group will not.

NCT ID: NCT03928808 Withdrawn - Anorexia Nervosa Clinical Trials

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) in Treatment of Severe and Enduring Anorexia Nervosa

Start date: April 1, 2023
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This is an open-label pilot study designed to explore the safety, feasibility, tolerability, and acceptability of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in the treatment of severe and enduring anorexia nervosa (SE-AN).

NCT ID: NCT03736642 Withdrawn - Anorexia Nervosa Clinical Trials

Study of the Microbiological Profile of Stool in Patients With Anorexia Nervosa

ANOSTOOL
Start date: May 15, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder whose symptomatology induces a modification of the intestinal microbiota. To date, studies have shown variable profiles without linking them to metabolic and neuropsychological energy phenotyping. This intestinal dysbiosis could be involved in the maintenance of the disorders. Bidirectional communication channels exist between the microbiota, the intestine and the brain. Anomalies in these pathways could explain the impact of the microbiota on the pathophysiology of anorexia nervosa. Therapeutic interventions would then be possible to restore the microbiota in anorexia nervosa and influence the treatment of this disease. This study aims to explore the hypothesis of disruption of the microbiota-intestinal-brain axis transversely and measuring the intestinal microbiota, urinary metabolome, biological factors nutritional, immunological and physiological plasma plasma of the intestine, and finally, the psychological dimensions characteristic of anorexia nervosa.

NCT ID: NCT03647943 Withdrawn - Sham tDCS Clinical Trials

Neuromodulation Augmented Cognitive Training to Improve Cognitive Flexibility in Anorexia Nervosa

Start date: August 30, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the use of a new brain stimulation tool called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). tDCS is a new technique used to stimulate the brain. The investigators believe that it may help to change brain function in individuals with anorexia nervosa. The brain stimulation occurs outside the head. The tDCS procedure involves applying a small amount of electrical current across the scalp, for a short period of time. This small electrical current is able to change the electrical activity inside areas of the brain. In the current study, the investigators will ask participants to complete computer-based brain training sessions. While participants do the brain training exercises, they will receive either real tDCS for "sham" tDCS. "Sham" tDCS means that participants might feel sensations like tingling or vibrations from the tDCS machine, but will not actually receive the electrical current. Investigators will also ask participants to complete several tests to assess changes in brain function. The information gained from this study will help investigators to understand how tDCS could be used to improve brain function and learning in individuals with anorexia nervosa.

NCT ID: NCT02087280 Withdrawn - Anorexia Nervosa Clinical Trials

Metabolic Phenotyping in Anorexia Nervosa

Start date: October 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

After discharge from inpatient treatment, 30-50% of patients with Anorexia Nervosa require re-hospitalization within 4-12 months. So far, high relapse rates are mostly considered as lack of the patient's compliance and motivation to recover. However in studies, psychological relapse predictors explain only a minor part of the variance in relapse risk. Metabolic phenotyping has clinical value to predict weight course in obese patients and we assume that it could also be clinically relevant in patients with AN. We hypothesize that in patients with a dissipative but not with the thrifty phenotype, positive energy balance during refeeding causes an over proportional rise in energy expenditure, counteracts continuous weight gain during inpatient treatment, and increases relapse risk within one year after discharge. Thus we believe that metabolic phenotype as a biological parameter has prognostic value for the disease course in AN.
