Filter by:This study investigates the effect of upregulating prefrontal cortex activity on antisocial and aggressive behavior and risk factors for such behavior. In the double-blind, randomized controlled trial, participants will undergo anodal transcranial direct current stimulation bilaterally to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex or a sham stimulation. During and after stimulation, they will complete survey and laboratory measures assessing antisocial and aggressive behavior and risk factors for antisocial and aggressive behavior. Heart rate and skin conductance will also be measured.
combining the non-surgical therapy with a well-tolerated substance that can stimulate protective immune responses like B-glucan, might effectively mount resolution pathways contributing to resolving of the chronic lesion observed in aggressive forms of periodontal disease.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if loratadine can control bone pain caused by pegfilgrastim (a drug given after chemotherapy to help raise white blood cell counts).
This study will evaluate whether a home-based targeted education and skill training (Aggression Prevention Training or APT) will reduce aggression in persons with dementia (PWD) and pain/pain-related features more than usual care plus supportive telephone calls. Half of the participants will receive APT and half will receive supportive telephone calls.
The objectives of this project are as follows: 1. To assess whether omega-3 dietary supplementation for six months can reduce externalizing behavior problems (antisocial and aggressive behavior) in schoolchildren aged 8 to 18, both at the end of treatment and six months post-treatment 2. To assess whether omega-3 supplementation is more effective in children with more psychopathic-like traits.
In this study, the investigators evaluated molecular biomarkers which play a role in the development of generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAgP) using gingival tissue samples through omics-based whole-genome transcriptomic while using healthy individuals as background controls.
The study was to intended to visualize the nuclear localization of vitamin D receptor in oral tissues of aggressive periodontitis patients to better understand the potential for receptor in disease activity or progression.
This is a Phase 1b/2 open-label study to evaluate the safety/efficacy of MEDI-551 + MEDI0680 in participants with relapsed or refractory aggressive B-cell lymphomas who have failed 1-2 prior lines of therapy.
Soldiers deployed in peace-keeping missions as well as ex-combatants in conflict or former conflict regions were and are often exposed to multiple traumatic events and situations in which they are forced to engage in violent behavior. The treatment program Formation, Orientation and Rehabilitation by means of Narrative Exposure Therapy (FORNET) is a short-term, culturally sensitive treatment approach that aims to reduce Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms as well as the risk to engage in uncontrolled violent behavior. Addressing trauma-related mental disorders as well as emotions related to aggression by means of FORNET is expected to facilitate reintegration in civil life and reduce uncontrolled violence. The investigators want to provide evidence, that FORNET is an effective and efficient module to assist soldiers after deployment in Somalia and/or male and female ex-combatants who fought in the civil war in Burundi. In addition the investigators aim to explore how traumatic incidences and maltreatment during childhood may influence treatment outcomes.
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) robustly predicts anger and aggression, and U.S. Iraq/Afghanistan-era combat Veterans report that treatment for anger and aggression is among their top priorities. PTSD-related anger and aggression are associated with profound functional impairments, yet to date there are no empirically-supported treatments for Veterans with PTSD and aggression. Effective group treatment programs could improve functioning and facilitate community reintegration for these Veterans. Given that anger impedes progress in treatment of PTSD symptoms, group anger treatment could also improve Veterans' capacity to benefit from individually-administered empirically-supported therapy for PTSD such as prolonged exposure or cognitive processing therapy.
