Previous research on the impact of a diary on mental symptoms of PICS, PICS-F, and quality of life in former ICU patients and their relatives has focused specifically on a paper diary. While there has been research on the experiences of former ICU patients, relatives, and ICU nurses regarding the use of a digital diary, it is not known whether this diary has an impact on the psychological well-being and quality of life of former ICU patients and their relatives. A successful implementation of [the digital diary] enables this research. The aim of this study is, therefore, to provide an initial impression of the health-related effects of a digital diary on former ICU patients and their relatives.
The purpose of this study is to develop a multi-level PrEP adherence and persistence intervention as an adaptation of the TENDAI ('grateful' in Shona) program, a problem-solving approach to reduce depression and increase HIV treatment adherence among people living with HIV in Zimbabwe. The new intervention, TENDAI4PrEP, will be designed to improve PrEP uptake and persistence among pregnant persons in Zimbabwe. If feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy are demonstrated, the intervention will be ready for large-scale effectiveness/implementation testing. This program will has the potential to address a critical public health challenge impacting pregnant and postpartum persons in Zimbabwe: the prevention of HIV acquisition and transmission.
This SBIR Phase I proposal will develop and test the acceptability and feasibility of a new suite of digital Single-Session Interventions, specifically applying Unified Protocol core principles for emotional disorders, to produce a highly accessible, engaging, and scalable product to help address the clinical needs of youth.
To learn about the feasibility, safety, and effects of psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy on depression and/or anxiety in participants who are being treated for advanced cancer.
US residents who have obesity and sign the informed consent form and are screened and enrolled for this study. Participants who are enrolled complete a survey upon enrollment and are randomized into one of two arms. This study is direct to participant and will not utilize clinical sites.
Since 2012, the Online Therapy Unit has been offering Internet-delivered cognitive behaviour therapy (ICBT). ICBT represents a convenient method for individuals to access care for depression and anxiety. In ICBT, clients receive access to standardized lessons that provide the same information and skills as traditional face-to-face CBT. ICBT courses often span 6-12 weeks. There is now growing evidence that clients with symptoms of depression and anxiety can benefit from a single session brief intervention that offers practical strategies for improving mental health, but the investigators are uncertain about the interest in such a lesson among those seeking online mental health care. The Things You Do Course, therefore, is designed to provide clients with 5 key actions that clients can take to improve their emotional wellbeing. In this study, the Online Therapy Unit (OTU) is examining how effective the Things You Do Course is in helping clients manage their symptoms of depression and anxiety and improve their emotional wellbeing. The OTU is also exploring the extent to which clients are satisfied with the course, and what factors contribute to improvements in symptoms, as measured by a number of questionnaires. The research will ultimately be used to improve how the OTU will deliver ICBT and to inform whether to include the single session course within existing online mental health service options.
The aim of this study is to identify biologically viable targets for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) and anxiety disorder (AD) with the ultimate goal of guiding physicians' therapeutic strategies and identifying more effective and safer treatments for patients. Following the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the investigators will recruit 10 patients with a diagnosis of anxious-depressive disorder (MDD-AD) and 10 healthy controls (HC) subjects. Each participant will be evaluated by a team of expert psychologists and physicians, who will be conducting a structured interview and administering a set of psychopathological scales to assess the symptoms' severity. The participants will also undergo7T multimodal neuroimaging session (including T1-weighted, 1H-MRS and fMRI). In the second part of the study, murine models will be used to study the role of integrin β3 (Itgb3) and protocadherin 9 (Pcdh9) in glutamatergic transmission at a molecular level and to evaluate whether the electrophysiological and behavioral defects identified in Itgb3- and Pcdh9-knockout mice can be restored by CRISPR-mediated transcription activation (CRISPRa).
The goal of this research study is to adapt an ACT-self-help workbook to the prison setting and determine the feasibility acceptability, and effectiveness of this workbook. Participants can expect to be in the study for 13 weeks.
The investigators will be randomizing 150 college student participants with high levels of social media use into either a 1) control condition (no intervention), a 2) mindfulness meditation cognitive intervention, or 3) a social media reduction + exercise replacement intervention. Participants complete intervention activities daily for one week. The investigators will collect self-report and behavioral measures of social media use and related psychological constructs at three time points: baseline, immediately after the intervention period, and one-week after the intervention period.
