Filter by:Although borderline personality disorder (BPD) tend to the clinical remission in long-term follow-up studies, a significant subgroup of patients continues to present long lasting symptoms such as low mood, emptiness and persistent impairment in psychosocial adjustment. The prevalence of this subsample of individuals is considerably increasing last years. New interventions addressed to these individuals are need, the aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel intervention combining dialectical behavioral therapy skills training with self-compassion and contextual-based skills for patients with long-lasting BPD.
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group controlled trial. The aim of this research project is to compare the clinical benefits achieved in patients with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) following two types of intervention: ccPAS active or ccPAS sham.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is often accompanied by a variety of other symptoms, such as bipolar disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD), Avoidant Personality Disorder (AvPD), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), etc. The behavioral and social complications often marginalize the population, impact on life satisfaction, undermined societal values that impact on economic and financial fairness, and so forth. Furthermore, persons with ASD are neurodiverse from standardized pharmacological and clinical cares, and are interpreted disadvantaged in the context of neurotypical treatments. The research protocol aims to differentiate the neuropharmacological implications of ASD from its behavioral and social implications. Such a differentiation is beneficial to the quality of care for neurodiverse population, both in terms of precision treatment in medical settings, and in terms of psychotherapeutic treatment efficacy in the interpretation of behavioral and social traits. The study protocol continues from the adverse event of the participant in NCT05711810 trial, after the positive immunological results in the NCT05839236 trial. The intervention medicine continues from Sertraline adjusted on the choice of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI) in the previous two trials for complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) of the participant, and its combined used with Duloxetine in the choice of Selective Norephedrine Reuptake Inhibitor (SNRI) for norephedrine regulations. The hypothesized target is on the discrete psychiatric intervention centered approach to ASD treatment care. In the PRC where the study is being carried out, amphetamine class medicines are strictly prohibited and defined as illegal substances, regardless of their only proven effect for ASD patient care. Contributed by the sociostructural elements and necessities, black market amphetamine and ketamine have not only emerged in the regime for decades, but also have become a lucrative business. Their recreational uses are also sometimes accompanied by real necessities and needs; black markets cater to the needs but guidance on the usages is based on word-of-mouth stories without professional medical assistances. There is one case the Principal Investigator (PI) collected, that one person, possibly under depression contributed by PTSD, took relatively high dosage of amphetamine and went into a state of psychosis with overwhelming persecution mania. The study protocol, Psychiatric Orders in Psychoanalytic Treatment of ASD, is therefore designed for an evidence-based approach in treating complex psychiatric disorders with psychoanalytic guidance.
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a severe, high-suicidal psychiatric disorder associated with impulsive, endangering behaviors. Young patients between 16 and 25 years old do not respond to traditional psychotherapies, which are often long and not adapted to their neurocognitive alterations linked to early trauma. The study authors hypothesize the SINTYA therapy program (one group session and one individual session weekly for 10 weeks) would reduce the level of impulsivity and clinical symptomatology (severity of the BPD; emotional regulation difficulties; dissociative symptoms; aggressiveness; ruminations; the number of self-destructive behaviors and suicidal acts; impulsive behaviors; level of suicide risk and hopelessness; the number of psychiatric hospitalizations and emergency visits for psychiatric reasons; and finally improving psychosocial functioning).
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the efficacy of transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) in borderline personality disorder. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is tVNS effective in acutely reducing emotional reactivity in borderline personality disorder? Participants will be randomized to a single session of tVNS or sham-tVNS while going through an affect-inducing procedure. It will consist of the presentation of one neutral and three negative affect-inducing videos in sequence, each of which is followed by a post-induction period during which participants will rate the quality and intensity of their current self-reported emotions. Researchers will compare the tVNS and sham tVNS groups to see if there is a difference in the intensity of the self-reported emotions between the groups.
Borderline personality disorder is a mental illness that severely impacts a person's ability to regulate their emotions. This loss of emotional control can increase impulsivity, affect how a person feels about themselves, and negatively impact their relationships with others. In fact, the societal impact of BPDs might be found in emotional suffering, disability and economic burden. In addition in BPD, the suicide rate might be as high as 8-10%. the presence of BPD also interferes with response to treatment of physical and psychiatric comorbidities, such as migraine, HIV, anxiety disorders and substance use disorders. Furthermore, BPD in particular, are associated with high rates of unemployment, absences from work and inefficiency at work, with only 25% of patients suffering from BPD working full time and 40% receiving disability payments. Accordingly, early detection and management would be of great societal and economic impact. Our Study aim is to validate the Arabic version of Maclean Instrument for screening and detection of BPD and and investigate the possible risk factors associated with that disease
TRIAGE-Psych is a survey study designed to assess potential participants' eligibility to screen for industry-sponsored psychiatry clinical trials.
In the proposed study, three objectives will be pursued: 1. To develop a method to identify more effectively the acute and long-term risk of adolescents with the most threatening self-harm behaviours. 2. To identify the factors that influence the risk of self-harm behaviours and the success of treatment/treatment of these behaviours in the most at-risk adolescents (changes in these factors). 3. Develop guidelines for more effective treatment of the most at-risk adolescents. For this purpose, a sample of approximately 200 young people who will be hospitalised for suicide risk (the most at risk in Slovenia) and an approximately equal number of healthy adolescents will be included. At inclusion, the presence of several factors will be assessed by reviewing demographic data, clinical diagnosis, self-assessment questionnaires and clinical psychological tests (CSSRS, B-NSSI-AT, ISAS, LPFS-BF2.0, BPFSC-11, TSCC, PAI, ECR-RS, DASA-YV, ASHRS), social assessment, and blood sampling for genetic analyses (DNA isolation, sequencing, nucleotide sequence recognition, quantification and evaluation of short tandem repeats, identification of methylation sites). Longitudinal tracking of autoaggressive events and heteroaggressive events during hospitalisation will be performed and recorded on an ongoing basis. The risk and protective factors of the adolescents most at risk will be compared with a control group of adolescents. The same factors will be reassessed in the most at-risk adolescents after 6 and 18 months of treatment as usual. The data will be collected in a data entry and storage system that will ensure the privacy of the data entered in accordance with the GDPR. This will allow the investigators to identify young people at particular risk of severe self-harm behaviour more reliably, to target them for more intensive and effective treatment, and thus to improve their safety, quality of life and prognosis in the short and long term.
A clinical trial to evaluate the effects of an eight-week emotion regulation group intervention designed for adolescents (16-20 years old) on the levels of emotion dysregulation both self-reported by the adolescent and reported by his/her parent/caregiver (pre-post comparison). The long-term effect will also be measured at a third-time point, three months after the end of the intervention. The intervention will consist of 90-minute sessions once a week for 8 weeks, in groups of eight participants. The intervention proposed for this study is an adaptation from different interventions already in use for adolescents in clinical practice, such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mentalization-Based Treatment (MBT) and Mindfulness-Based Intervention (MBI).
The primary goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the unique neural and behavioral effects of a one-session training combining emotion regulation skills training, with excitatory repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC). The secondary aim is to identify key changes in the emotion regulation neural network following the combined intervention versus each of the components alone. The third aim is to explore personalized biomarkers for response to emotion regulation training. Participants will undergo brain imaging while engaging in an emotional regulation task. Participants will be randomly assigned to learn one of two emotion regulation skills. Participants will be reminded of recent stressors and will undergo different types of neurostimulation, targeted using fMRI (functional MRI) results. Participants who may practice their emotion regulation skills during neurostimulation in a one-time session. Following this training, participants will undergo another fMRI and an exit interview to assess for immediate neural and behavioral changes. Measures of emotion regulation will be assessed at a one week and a one month follow up visit.
