Filter by:In this double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled trial, we aimed to examine the effect of accelerated piTBS on suicide risk in a group of treatment-resistant patients with MDD (i.e., TRD), using an extensive suicide assessment scale the primary outcome. We hypothesized that this intensified treatment protocol would be safe in TRD patients with suicide ideations and would result in significant decreases in suicide risk in the active treatment condition as compared to the sham condition.
This is an observational (non-interventional) prospective study, carried out in drug-naïve outpatients who start a treatment with escitalopram, fluoxetine, sertraline or quetiapine. Five blood samples are collected (i.e. before initiating the drug, and then after 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks of treatment). It does not affect the choice or the treatment dose. The primary objective of this study is to measure the association between the EDIT-B® editing signature and response to pharmacological treatment in drug-naïve patients. Results of this research could provide an aid to early diagnosis, optimize pharmacological treatment and guide clinical practice towards individualized treatment.
Cluster randomised controlled trial with two arms: arts intervention (any of the arts interventions, see list), which we call here Active Group (AG) vs waitlist control (WL).
PARADIGM (Progressing TAAR-1, Dopamine, and Norepinephrine in Depression Using Solriamfetol) is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial to assess the safety and efficacy of solriamfetol for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults.
After menopause, there is a certain tendency towards depression, with the risk of developing depression being about 3 to 4 times higher than before menopause. Additionally, postmenopausal women experience varying degrees of cognitive decline, which are closely associated with hormonal changes. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the cognitive levels of postmenopausal depression patients. Increasing evidence suggests that changes in cognitive function during menopause may be related to the effects of estrogen on cognitive function, and estrogen therapy can effectively improve cognitive decline. Estrogen is not only associated with cognitive symptoms after menopause, but estrogen intervention is also an adjunctive treatment for postmenopausal depression symptoms. There is a close relationship between cognitive levels and depression, as depression itself is accompanied by cognitive decline, and early cognitive decline can also manifest depressive symptoms. Therefore, the cognitive levels of postmenopausal depression patients are also worthy of further attention.This study is an 8-week randomized controlled trial. The subjects are patients with postmenopausal depression accompanied by cognitive decline, all of whom have undergone natural menopause for at least one year; with HAMD-17 scores ≥17 points; and MOCA scores ≤26 points. This study aims to recruit patients with postmenopausal depression accompanied by cognitive decline from the outpatient or inpatient departments of Beijing Anding Hospital, Capital Medical University. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to the combination group and the control group using a random number method. The combination group will receive estrogen combined with SSRIs, while the control group will only receive Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) intervention. Patients' cognitive function and depressive symptoms will be assessed using scales at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and the end of 8 weeks of treatment, and safety evaluations will be conducted. The primary efficacy endpoint is the change in MoCA scores from baseline to the end of the study. Secondary efficacy endpoints include changes in HAMD-17, modified Kupperman Scale, ADL Scale, and hormone levels from baseline to the end of the study. The safety of the study drug will be evaluated through adverse event reporting, clinical laboratory tests, and physical examinations.
This study seeks to provide insight on psilocybin's effects on mechanisms of chronic pain among patients with co-morbid chronic low back pain and depression (CLBP+D). Participants will receive either a single high-dose of psilocybin (25mg absolute dose) or methylphenidate (40mg absolute dose). Participants will be asked to complete assessments of pain, depressive symptoms, and more general questionnaires regarding the participants experiences during the experimental sessions and the associated enduring effects.
The prevalence of postpartum depression (PPD) varies between 11.9% and 19.2% during the perinatal period. PPD refers to minor and major depression incidents that occur during pregnancy or shortly after (up until 12 months after birth). The symptoms of PPD embrace feeling sad or having a depressed mood, being uninterested in the new-born, unreasonable crying and fear of injuring or harming the baby. Consequently, PPD can negatively impact the mother's well-being and the baby's development. The impact on a child can be short for cognitive and motor development . Although medication is a feasible alternative, many women have constraints due to continuing breastfeeding. Therefore, exercise can be an alternative that could help to deal with PPD. Exercise can be used as a preventive or treatment of mild depression at an early stage and as an addition to a treatment plan for major depressive disorder. Exercising during pregnancy and postpartum improves psychological health and also benefits physical fitness, weight gain control and the prevention or reduction of musculoskeletal discomfort and pain. Therefore, the American College of Obstetrics and Gynaecologists has recommended that women during pregnancy and postpartum engage in moderate-intensity physical activity almost every day for 30 min a day
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aimed at exploring the effectiveness and safety of rTMS intervention with DMPFC targets guided by pBFS in patients with treatment-resistant depression.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of digital interventions in treating depression and anxiety in adolescents. The main question it aims to answer is: Can digital interventions effectively alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety in adolescents? The trial will include a comparison group where researchers will compare the effects of the digital intervention to traditional health education methods to assess their relative efficacy. Participants will be asked to engage with the digital intervention platform for a period of two months.
