Filter by:Depressed patients talk differently when they are depressed compared to when they are well. But it is hard to actually measure what the differences are. The study team will record voice samples from patients with mood disturbances, like depression, over the course of their receiving an electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) series. The study team will try and measure or quantify exactly what has changed in their speech and voice. The study team will choose ECT as it is one of the most effective and rapid treatment for depression. The study team will use a service provided by a company, NeuroLex, who has complex computer programs (artificial intelligence, AI) to analyze the voice samples.
The aim of this study is to show the physiological changes during manic episode in bipolar mania how much they differentiate from remission and healthy control. Relation of audio-visual features as physiological changes and cognitive functions and clinical variables will be searched. The aim is to find biologic markers for predictors of treatment response via machine learning techniques to be able to reduce treatment resistance and give an idea for personalized treatment of bipolar patients.
This trial attempts to evaluate the treatment efficacy of magnetic seizure therapy (MST) and its safety for bipolar mania. Half of the participants will receive MST, while the other half will receive electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).
This study evaluates the effect of a 'lithium like' drug called ebselen (SP-1005) versus placebo as an 'add on' treatment to help stabilise hypo/manic symptoms in bipolar disorder. Half of the participants will receive ebselen and the other half placebo. The trial, will last a total of four weeks.
