Filter by:Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a well-documented and effective method for the treatment of children and adolescents with anxiety disorders. Lately there has been an increase in the development and use of internet-based CBT programs (ICBT), as a means to reduce costs and enhance accessibility of psychological interventions. ICBT has proven efficacious towards adults with anxiety disorders. Research in the field of ICBT with children and adolescents is still in its infancy though and to date, no program targeting anxiety disorders has been developed nor evaluated in Denmark. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of a newly developed internet-based treatment program for adolescents with anxiety disorders. The effect will be examined in a randomized controlled trial comparing ICBT to a wait-list control condition.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of death in the United States; more than 600,000 Americans suffer a fatal cardiac event each year. Traditional CHD risk factors such as high blood pressure, smoking, and elevated cholesterol do not fully account for the timing and occurrence of CHD events and individuals with elevated levels of anxiety appear to have a greater risk of cardiovascular events. The present study will examine the impact of aerobic exercise and Lexapro in the treatment of anxiety and cardiovascular biomarkers among individuals with CHD.
