Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of SSRIs（Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor） ,ERP（Exposure and Response Prevention） and the combination of the two therapies for OCD(Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) patients ,at the same time, to find out the biological or psychological predictors of treatment response in Chinese population.
The present study aims to evaluate the effect of phototherapy with the combination of different sources of light on pain, activity of temporal and masseter muscles, bilateral and joint mobility in subjects with TMD. It will be made a randomized, placebo-controlled and double-blind clinical trial. Individuals participate with myogenic temporomandibular disorder, being allocated into 4 groups randomly and stratified by the method of sealed envelopes. The results will be evaluated using: RDC/TMD, digital caliper, electromyography, and visual analog scale and algometry. The protocols will be used in a single session and will be evaluated in four different moments. The variables that will be investigated are pain, muscle activity and joint mobility. The analyses of the data will be performed by adopting a significance level of 5%.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability and validity of the bipolar index (BPX) to diagnosis bipolar disorder, and to verify the stability of it in identifying bipolar disorder; the secondary purpose was to understand the dynamic changes of bipolar disorder in natural status.

This study is design to evaluate the influence of oxytocin in some aspects of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), such as, repetitive and stereotyped behavior, social skills, quality of life and disruptive behaviors. Null hypothesis: social skills, quality of life, disruptive behaviors and repetitive behaviors do not improve with the use of oxytocin. Experimental Hypothesis: social skills, quality of life, disruptive behaviors and repetitive and stereotyped behaviors improve with the use of oxytocin.

A person-centered substance use treatment component, the Natural Recovery Program, was developed in a residential substance use treatment setting. The Natural Recovery Program is comprised of small group therapy combined with pursuit of hobbies. The study examined treatment retention, treatment completion and satisfaction of participants of Natural Recovery compared to those who participated in core residential treatment activities alone.
Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre is Canada's largest trauma centre, treating 1,100 patients annually. A traumatic experience can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder, which increases hospital stays, emergency visits and disability. Despite developing leadership to manage a "Code Orange" mass trauma, Sunnybrook lacks guidelines in the psychological management of patients who have experienced trauma. The department of psychiatry currently holds a Traumatic Brain Injury clinic and PTSD services for youth but lacks both immediate intervention, prevention and adult services. This research will enable us to gain best evidence expertise to develop guidelines as well as a sustainable PTSD treatment program, with clear outcomes to assess effectiveness, psychiatric morbidity, use of healthcare, disability and substance abuse. The five world-expert-consensus intervention resilience based principles will be operationalized in guidelines for the management of trauma patients, their caregivers and in routine nursing and trauma team care from the Emergency to the ward, and discharge, through to outpatient care. It is hypothesized that this will improve the psychological recovery of patients at risk of developing PTSD after a traumatic injury. In addition, early screening and intervention for increased risk of PTSD will be implemented one month after the trauma. It is hypothesized that such trauma informed psychological management, early screening and expert treatment using prolonged exposure will reduce hospital stays, functional disability, as well as longer-term psychiatric morbidity, including substance abuse.
This study is to examine the superiority of the combined treatments of transdiagnostic cognitive-behavior therapy (Unified Protocol; UP) and Treatment-As-Usual in comparison with the waiting-list with Treatment-As-Usual in the reduction of depressive and anxiety symptoms among depressive and anxiety disorders.
