Filter by:This trial aims to assess the efficacy and tolerability of Magnetic Seizure Therapy (MST) as an alternative to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for depression. Even with multiple medication trials, 30 - 40% of patients will experience a pharmacologically resistant form of illness. The ineffectiveness of current treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) coupled with the economic burden associated with the disorder engenders a need for novel therapeutic interventions that can provide greater response and remission rates.
Depression and anxiety are common mental health problems. There are effective treatments for depression and anxiety and one of these is talking therapies using cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT). In recent years CBT has been transferred to online delivery methods and these interventions have proven successful for people being treated with symptoms of depression and anxiety. The current study will utilise a randomised controlled trial design, where the majority (n=240) of participants will be allocated to the immediate treatment (internet-delivered CBT for either depression or anxiety), and a smaller number (n=120) will be allocated to a waiting list. The waiting list group will receive treatment after an eight week wait. This design helps us to understand that any changes in symptoms in the treatment group will be likely due to the treatment they received compared to the waiting list. A sample size of 360 participants is proposed and has been adjusted to ameliorate against patient dropout. Follow-up and maintenance of any positive changes in symptoms is very important in CBT for depression and anxiety, simply because some people can have a relapse of symptoms. We will therefore follow-up the treatment group for 3, 6, 9 and 12 months to assess maintenance of positive gains from treatment. The study also seeks to investigate the cost effectiveness of the treatments.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of adjunctive ALKS 5461 in adults who have treatment refractory MDD.
Anxiety and depression have negative effect on outcomes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Intervention strategy including behavioral-cognitive therapy and pulmonary rehabilitation are promising in improving life quality, disease symptom and outcomes. But there's not standard algorithm in China so far. The study aims to compare the effectiveness of these interventions and develop an intervention algorithm of anxiety and depression in COPD.
Anxiety and depression are common comorbidities of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the exact prevalence is not known in China. COPD patients with anxiety and depression tend to have more severe symptoms and worse prognosis, but the related evidences are not strong enough. The study aim to investigate the prevalence and long-term outcome of anxiety and depression in COPD.
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is one of the most prevalent mental diagnosis within the worldwide population. Although there is evidence about relationship between MDD and cognitive dysfunction, still the correlations between biomarkers and the severity of the disorder or the level of cognitive dysfunction need further research. Therefore, the aim of the study is to determine such relationships in Ukrainian population.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of a single (first) dose of 3 fixed doses of intranasal esketamine {28 milligram (mg), 56 mg, and 84 mg} compared with psychoactive placebo (oral midazolam) in rapidly reducing the symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD) including suicidal ideation in participants 12 to less than 18 years of age who are assessed to be at imminent risk for suicide.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Anyu Peibo Capsule comparing with placebo in the treatment of Chinese Patients with Depression. And to provide some scientific evidence for protocol designing in following phase Ⅲ clinical trial.
The proposed pilot study will assess whether people with major depressive disorder experience psychological and behavioral benefits and/or harms from psilocybin. This study will investigate acute and persisting effects of psilocybin on depressive symptoms and other moods, attitudes, and behaviors. The primary hypothesis is that psilocybin will lead to rapid and sustained antidepressant response, as measured with standard depression rating scales.
The National Institutes of Mental Health has identified the use of empirically based mental health treatments (i.e., treatments with research supporting efficacy) as a priority, yet there is a shortage of clinicians trained in these approaches. This study develops an on-line therapist training program for Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), a particularly well-researched yet particularly little disseminated, empirically based treatment, in order to facilitate wider dissemination of this approach.
