Filter by:This project tests the feasibility and utility of a novel, integrated approach to treatment of patients with cannabis use disorder (CUD) and anxiety disorders.
Patients are often anxious immediately before surgery. The investigators hypothesis is that a warming blanket is as effective as the sedative midazolam in allaying anxiety before surgery.
1. To evaluate the safety, and efficacy of Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate in the treatment of outpatients with DSM-IV ADHD with anxiety and depressive disorder comorbidity, as well as to evaluate the effects on quality of life . 2. To evaluate the efficacy of Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate in the treatment of anxiety and depressive disorders which commonly occur with ADHD. 3. To examine the potential relationship between telomere length and Adult ADHD with comorbidity and the potential effect of treatment response. 4. To examine the potential associations with specific genes and Adult ADHD.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how the hormone, oxytocin, impacts social behavior in terms of cooperation with others, attention processing, and reward processing, among patients with social anxiety disorder. Based on available research, the investigators predict that in patients with social anxiety disorder, oxytocin will improve social cooperation during an online ball-tossing game called Cyberball, reduce attention toward socially threatening cues during a dot-probe task, and lead to greater willingness to work for monetary rewards for others rather than themselves during an effort expenditure task.
The objective of this study was to confirm if two formulations of alprazolam (tablets) are bioequivalent. Test product was Zamoprax® 0.25 mg (GlaxoSmithKline) and reference product Tafil® 0.25 mg (Pharmacia & Upjohn). One tablet was the single dosage. The study was prospective, open-label, randomized, crossover, single dose, with 02 treatments, 02 sequences and 02 periods, under fasting conditions. The population was composed of 28 healthy volunteers, both genders, adults between 18-50 years. The comparative bioavailability of the two formulations was evaluated based in statistical comparisons of relevant pharmacokinetic parameters, obtained from data of drug concentrations in blood.
A diverse body of research has implicated the amygdalo-cortical circuitry in the pathophysiology of anxiety disorders. For example, one model of PTSD posits exaggerated amygdala responsivity to threat-related stimuli as well as deficient top-down modulation of amygdala responses by specific cortical regions, including the pregenual anterior cingulate cortex, subcallosal cortex, and hippocampus. The investigators propose to investigate the pathophysiology of several specific anxiety disorders, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Panic Disorder (PD), and Specific Phobia(SP), by using cognitive activation paradigms and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to probe the function and structure of implicated amygdalo-cortical circuitry.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of vilazodone relative to placebo in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).
The purpose of this study is to determine the level of pain, anxiety and side effects that women experience with a surgical abortion and the effect that the anti-anxiety medication, midazolam, might have when used along with ibuprofen and a paracervical block (PCB) instead of the standard pain treatment of only ibuprofen and a PCB.
Psychological therapies for depression have demonstrated efficacy, but outcomes are still unsatisfactory, especially in cases with high comorbidity. Depression and anxiety co-occur in up to 69-75% of teens and intensify functional impairment and service use. This study will develop treatment materials for a transdiagnostic Group Behavioral Activation Therapy (GBAT) and conduct a pilot waitlist-controlled school-based study with 35 7th and 8th grade boys and girls with co-occurring depression and anxiety. Multi-reporter, multi-domain assessments will be conducted at initial screening, pre- and post-treatment, and 4-month follow-up. BA is a straightforward, but flexible and robust, therapy that has demonstrated strong results in adults. Current formulations of BA highlight the specific role of avoidance in depressotypic behavior. It presumes that anhedonia, isolation, and negative behaviors associated with depression function to avoid imminent distress even as it blocks access to otherwise available positive reinforcement. This study will therefore employ novel electronic diary technology to obtain Ecological Momentary Assessment and evaluate: (a) the function of avoidance in distinguishing youth with depression (n=35) from a non-clinical comparison group (n=18), and (b) the role of avoidance in mediating treatment gains in participants in the GBAT intervention.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential efficacy of JNJ-42165279 in treating anxiety disorders through evaluation of brain activation patterns using imaging technology in healthy volunteers.
