Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences in treatment outcomes between individually tailored and transdiagnostic internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT), as well as the differences between weekly support by a specific therapist and weekly support by a team. The target group is adults (18 years or older) who experience mild to moderate depression symptoms, anxiety, stress or other psychological symptoms. The ICBT, in both types of treatment contents, consists of modules that the participants will work with for eight weeks in total. Participants will be recruited in Sweden with nationwide recruitment.
The aim of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the parent training intervention Supportive Parents - Coping Kids (SPARCK) for prevention of childhood mental health problems. The main research questions are: • Is SPARCK effective in preventing and reducing negative outcomes and promoting positive outcomes for eligible children and parents compared with regular care practice? In addition, investigators will conduct an implementation study to examine relations between implementation determinants and implementation and clinical outcomes in the SPARCK intervention condition Participants in the effectiveness trial will be randomized to receive either the SPARCK intervention or active regular care practices provided by professionals in the Norwegian frontline services. Researchers will test the effectiveness of the SPARCK intervention at post treatment and six months follow-up.
In recent years, the number of people with symptoms of depression or anxiety are on the rise. The aims of the prospective randomized study are: (1) to examine the effects of Baduanjin breathing training on reducing symptoms of depression or anxiety, and (2) to explore the correlates between improvements of depression or anxiety symptom and changes of lung functions.
The proposed study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that aims to examine the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy in reducing depressive and anxiety symptoms for youths in Hong Kong. It is to be carried out with 120 youths aged 12 - 24 recruited from a series of community-based LevelMind@JC hubs, funded by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. It is designed to improve the youths' abilities/ skills in handling moods to have better emotional management. A written informed consent will be signed by participants. Researchers will perform cognitive behavioural therapy on youths who agree to join the study.
Bryophyllum pinnatum (BP) is a succulent perennial plant from the family Crassulacea (for reviews see Fürer 2016 and Hamburger 2017). Leaf extracts from BP have been used in traditional medicine to treat wounds and ulcers, skin diseases, infections, inflammations, pain, diabetes, hypertension, and cancer. In Europe, BP started to be used at the beginning of the 20th century in Anthroposophic medicine, a form of holistic medicine with an integrative approach. Almost a hundred years later, BP preparations are still often prescribed in Anthroposophic medicine, where it is used in the treatment of a broad spectrum of diagnoses, most often of mental and behavioural disorders (ICD-10 F00-F99), including anxiety, depressive, and sleep disorders (Simões-Wüst 2012). In Switzerland, during the last decade, BP (50 % tablets) started to be used in conventional settings mainly in the treatment of preterm labour (Simões-Wüst 2018, Plangger 2006), overactive bladder (Betschart 2013), sleep disorders (Simões-Wüst 2015), and restless legs syndrome (Von Manitius 2019). Whereas the good effectiveness of BP preparations in the treatment of preterm contractions and overactive bladder is well supported by data obtained using a variety of in vitro models (see e.g. Santos 2018, Bachmann 2017, Simões-Wüst 2010), less is known about possible mechanisms of action that would support their use in the treatment of mental and behavioural disorders. Nevertheless, the observed improvements of sleep disorders are corroborated by animal experiments showing that different fractions of the leaf extract of BP can prolong the pentobarbitone-induced sleeping time (Yemitan 2005 and Pal 1999), indicating a CNS depressant action. Some of the bufadienolides present in Bryophyllum species are thought to be responsible for the sedative effects (Wagner 1986). The aim of the present study is to find out if patients suffering from anxiety symptoms perceive improvements of these symptoms during treatment with Bryophyllum 50% tablets. Since anxiety symptoms are often related to depression, reduced sleep quality, stress, reduced health-related quality of life and the feeling of not being able to control owns life (internal coherence), these aspects will be assessed as well.
The preparation of ICU Diary, conducted by the Hospital care team towards the patient, has been suggested as an effective and low-cost strategy to enhance the patient's experience in the intensive care unit, as well as to prevent anxiety, depression and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). New-found researches in Brazilian ICUs indicates the pervasiveness of these symptoms in patients who have been hospitalized in the unit, however, there are no randomized trials that evaluate the impact of Diaries in the Brazilian context. The aim is to explore the effects of providing an ICU Diary in the symptoms of anxiety, depression and PTSD within patients who were hospitalized in the unit. Refers to a randomized controlled trial that is being conducted in two ICUs in a general-purpose hospital in Porto Alegre, Brazil.
Constipated patients often have mental problems such as depression and anxiety due to difficult defecation. Our previous studies have proved the efficacy of FMT treating constipation. Meanwhile it is believed that mental diseases are correlated to gut microbiota. This trial is based on the theory of the gut-brain-microbiota axis. Patients with constipation, depression and/or anxiety are performed FMT, laboratory, imaging and microbiota examinations, and clinical follow-up, to observe the clinical efficiency of FMT and the potential role of gut microbiome in these gut-brain disorders.
