Filter by:The hypothesis of this study was that transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) focused on hyperfunctional cerebral areas should be more effective in treating depressive symptoms than stimulations not taking into account the functional specificity of the patient. The goal was to compare the effects of "guided" TMS, using neuroimaging to guide TMS on dysfunctional cortical regions individually detected by neuroimaging, with "standard TMS", as used in most studies, over the left prefrontal cortex, and with sham TMS, in patients with resistant depression.
This study will compare the effectiveness of cognitive therapy versus antidepressant medication in treating depression and preventing relapse in individuals with recurrent depression.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) including sertraline have been found to be effective in the treatment of generalized social phobia (GSP). However, virtually all of the current treatment studies with medicines, including the SSRIs, have excluded patients with social phobia who have other co-occurring conditions. In fact, 80% of individuals suffering with primary social phobia have at least one other anxiety. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of sertraline in the treatment of generalized social phobia with co-occurring anxiety and mood disorders.
This is an 8-week open label study of bupropion SR in the treatment of youth with bipolar depression with adequate mood stabilization. All youth will be closely monitored for treatment emergent manic activation and drug-drug interactions with ongoing antimanic agents. The main objective of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of bupropion SR in the treatment of bipolar depression in children and adolescents.
This study will determine the effectiveness of sertraline administration after a stroke in preventing the onset of post-stroke depression.
The purpose of this study is to examine the mood stabilizing and antipsychotic properties of quetiapine in the treatment of depression by comparing subjects who were randomly assigned to either quetiapine monotherapy, quetiapine and citalopram; or haloperidol and citalopram. We hypothesize that quetiapine monotherapy would have similar effects to the combination of a first generation antipsychotic plus an antidepressant for the treatment of a major depressive episode with psychosis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of risperidone monotherapy in the treatment of psychotic depression. We hypothesize that risperidone is as equally as effective as haloperidol plus sertraline for depression with psychotic features
This study investigates the hypothesis that pindolol can accelerate the response to antidepressants in patients with major depression treated with venlafaxine.
The purpose of this study is to adapt depression prevention interventions of proven benefit to the primary care setting in a manner that would be acceptable and potentially available to young adults in the community.
Emotionally labile, depressed participants with multiple sclerosis treated with escitalopram will have a greater reduction in emotional lability scores and in their psychological distress scores than those who are randomized to receive placebo.
