Filter by:This is a cluster-randomized pilot trial of depression screening and treatment implementation at four Youth-friendly Health Services (YFHS) in primary care clinics, two in Maputo City and two in Maputo Province. YFHS will be stratified by urbanicity, such that one YFHS in Maputo City and one YFHS in Maputo Province will be randomized to interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT)-A and the other YFHS in each location with be randomized to treatment as usual (TAU).
This observational study aims to characterize the relationship between preoperative depressive symptoms and opioid use/ misuse after surgery using a perioperative learning health care system. We will follow a prospective cohort of patients undergoing elective surgery.
Attention control for external information and cognitive control for internal information play a causal role in emotion regulation according to different theories and research. Prior research shows that an interactive attention control training in which participants learn to unravel scrambled sentences ("life is my a party mess") in a positive manner ("my life is a party") by receiving feedback on their eye movements while attending to the valenced words, can facilitate participants to be more able to re-interpret negative information in a positive manner. In the current study we want to test the effect of psycho-education in combination with a 10 day attention control training to see if this has a positive effect on depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms, emotion regulation and self-esteem in depressed patients. The study takes place in a psychiatric hospital (Alexianen Zorggroep Tienen) while participants are staying there to receive treatment.
Postpartum depression (PPD) is associated with significant health consequences for mothers and children, and the current COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the mental health of particularly vulnerable populations including pregnant Black and Latina women. There is an urgent need for evidence-based, accessible, and scalable mental health care options for these high-risk, vulnerable women. This study aims to: (a) compare the effectiveness of two digitally-delivered self-paced stress reduction programs in pregnant Black and Latina women at increased risk of PPD; and (b) examine barriers and facilitators to implementation within a large healthcare system.
The aim of the study was to asses levels and relationship of chronic pain, anxiety, depression and perceived stress in TMD patients .
The overall goal of this study is to elucidate how emotion network dynamics relate to the behavioral, autonomic, and experiential changes that accompany emotions and to investigate how emotion network dysfunction relates to affective symptoms. Affective symptoms are a common feature of neuropsychiatric disorders that reflect dysfunction in a distributed brain network that supports emotion. How aberrant functioning in a single emotion network underlies a wide range of affective symptoms, such as depression and anxiety, is not well understood. Anchored by the anterior cingulate cortex and ventral anterior insula, the emotion network responds to numerous affective stimuli. The recording of neural activity directly from the cortical surface from individuals is a promising approach since intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) can provide direct estimates of neuronal populations to map the spatiotemporal dynamics of the emotion network at a millisecond level resolution. This study will exam how activity within emotion network hubs changes during emotions and how emotion network properties make some individuals more vulnerable to affective symptoms than others. A multidisciplinary approach is critical for understanding the dynamic brain network to advance neuroanatomical models of emotions and for guiding the development of novel treatments for affective symptoms.
This is a multicenter, open-label, fixed dose, 26 week study of patients with MDD. Eligible patients from the lead-in studies will enter the Open-label Safety Study at the Screening/Baseline Visit (Visit 1/Day 1), at which point patient eligibility will be assessed and informed consent obtained.
Three groups of subjects will be included: 20 subjects in the healthy control group, 20 subjects in the MDD electroacupuncture (EA) intervention group, and 20 subjects in the MDD waiting-list group (participants will receive no treatment within 4 weeks). The temperature and infrared thermography (IRT) images of the facial acupoints of three groups will be recorded by an infrared thermal-imaging camera. The average facial temperature and acupoints temperature will be analyzed and compared within 3 groups. In addition, the correlation between facial infrared radiation characteristics of MDD patients and emotional changes will be explored. Besides, the relative specificity of the two meridians will be investigated.
The TARGET study is an active-controlled evaluation of AXS-05 compared to bupropion in patients with treatment-resistant major depressive disorder (MDD) who are adherent to study drug. Subjects are considered to have treatment-resistant MDD if they have had a historical inadequate response to 1 or 2 prior antidepressant treatments (ADTs) and a prospective inadequate response to treatment with bupropion SR, during the current major depressive episode. The TARGET study will first determine treatment adherence based on analysis of drug concentrations of dextromethorphan (in the AXS-05 group) and bupropion (in the bupropion group), and then evaluate the efficacy of AXS-05 in patients determined to be treatment-adherent. Efficacy data for evaluation of treatment effect will be obtained from assessments made during study AXS-05-301.
Sema, which means "to listen/hear" in lexical meaning, is a special physical activity performed in the form of rotating in different positions rhythmically with music.During the sema activity, although it is similar to dance therapy due to the cyclical movements it contains, it can also be evaluated as a physical activity. With Sema music therapy accompanied by musical melodies, it is similar to meditation, as the ties with the world are cut off and the attempt is made to reach divine love. Various studies have shown that physical activity, music therapy, dance therapy, and meditation have positive effects on depression and anxiety in the literature. However, there is no scientific study in the literature investigating the effects of Sema activity, which includes all these approaches, on depression, anxiety and physical activity. In order to support the literature in this sense, this study was planned to examine the effects of Sema activity on physical activity level, depression and anxiety. Individuals between the ages of 18-60 who are registered in Konya Mevlana Cultural Center who have been doing Sema for at least 1 year will be included in the study. Participants who agree to participate in the study will be asked to fill in the online Informed Volunteer Form, Demographic Information Form, Beck Anxiete Scale, Beck Depression Scale and International Physical Activity Scale - Short Form. The data will be analyzed statistically with SPSS version 23.0.
