Filter by:Depression and anxiety are the most prevalent mental disorders among both the general population and young adults, and transdiagnostic treatments for these patients are mostly based on cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Based on common (transdiagnostic) principles of treatment (e.g., emotional exposure), these approaches have proliferated and demonstrated their efficacy in comparison to disorder-specific treatments. Although there are a few transdiagnostic approaches for children and adolescents, it was not possible to not find anyone targeting young people. For this reason, the investigators proposed the Identity-Based Transdiagnostic Therapy (IBTT) as a new treatment modality ideally created to address the challenge of improving the outcomes of psychotherapy for young adults with anxiety and/or depression. The IBTT is a psychological treatment for emotional disorders specifically designed for the youths in terms of their attitudes to treatment (attractiveness, engagement), and highly personalized to their construal of self and others. This project will allow testing the hypothesis that a novel brief psychotherapeutic intervention, IBTT, will be more efficacious in the treatment of the anxiety and/or depression of young adults than the well-established CBT-based Unified Protocol.
In this study, pregnant women were screened and managed for depression in three time windows: early pregnancy, mid-pregnancy, and late pregnancy. Pregnant women who screened positive for depression during pregnancy were dynamically enrolled in the study and stratified into randomized groups based on gestation period (early/mid/late) and randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups on a 1:1 basis. Pregnant women in the intervention group attended a three-week "mental fitness boot camp" and were assessed at 3 weeks, and if they still screened positive for depression, they were offered 4 times one-on-one counseling sessions by the obstetrician. The control group received routine care.
This study will explore the specific response characteristics of the niacin skin response test in the population with depressive disorder malinger. The investigators expect that depressive disorder malinger can be discriminated by the niacin skin reaction test.
Objectives of Study： Through the cross-sectional study of stroke and depression, key biomarkers are targeted by screening disease-associated intestinal bacteria, metabolites and immune factors through multi-omics techniques.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of performing psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy in patients hospitalized for treatment-resistant depression.
Although birth has a great place in a woman's life, factors such as the woman's education level, personal experiences, social support status, whether the pregnancy is planned or not, the family's attitude towards pregnancy, and socioeconomic status increase the burden of pregnancy and can create a stressful situation for the woman. While the pain that may be experienced during birth, thoughts about the baby's health and postpartum baby care further increase this fear, primiparous women who will give birth for the first time experience many emotions that they cannot define and cannot predict the situations they will encounter during birth. The most important situation that will cause pain during birth is fear. So much so that fear of birth may cause women to avoid pregnancy and increase optional abortions.In particular, fear of birth may increase cesarean delivery rates and also lead to negative maternal outcomes such as poor mental health after birth. Fear experienced during the antenatal period can lead to difficult births, mother-baby attachment problems, and depression. While fear of birth causes depression and anxiety disorders in the postpartum period, it is stated that depression experienced during pregnancy may increase the fear of birth, or fear of birth may be a hidden symptom of depression. It is noted that emotional regulation skills and resilience in pregnant women can be effective strategies in minimizing and managing fear, anxiety, stress, and anxiety. Emotional resilience is defined as the style of coping with stress, the ability to repair oneself, the ability to recover from adverse events quickly, and the state of adapting to a new environment. In particular, individuals with high emotional resilience can protect their physical and mental health and increase their life satisfaction by reducing the negative consequences they experience. With the emotional resilience training given during pregnancy, pregnant women's stress, fear, and anxiety will be reduced, and they will be able to cope better with the difficulties they experience. This research will be conducted to examine the effect of emotional resilience training given to primiparous pregnant women on fear of childbirth and depression.
Mother and infant massage, a type of complementary therapy, possesses the capacity to ameliorate maternal depression, stress, fatigue, and also infant temperaments and convert them into more manageable ones. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of mother and infant massage therapy on maternal depression, stress, fatigue, and infant temperament. In this quasi-experimental study, a total of 102 participants were allocated into two groups based on a pretest and posttest. During a period of five weeks, the experimental groups were subjected to ten massages per week, twice every week. On the data, a generalized estimating equation (GEE) was implemented. This study's hypothesis was an improvement in maternal depression, stress, fatigue, and infant temperament.
Participants will receive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) at a random location in the left prefrontal cortex, excluding sites that are potentially unsafe. Extensive behavioral testing will be conducted to determine which behaviors are modulated by stimulating which circuits.
This study plans to learn more about the use of one of two self-guided online cognitive behavioral therapy courses. One is focused on symptoms of depression and one is focused on history of suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
A prospective, single arm, non-randomized, pilot clinical validation study to evaluate the ability of the Kintsugi Voice Device (the Device) to aid clinical assessment for depression by comparing its output with a diagnosis made by a clinician using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5 (SCID-5-CT) for up to 500 English speaking adult patients ages 22 and older living in the United States. Recruitment will occur for 1 year and participation will be for up to 2 weeks.
