Filter by:The goal of this interventional study is to assess the effectiveness of the universal suicide prevention program "Youth Aware of Mental Health" in 3rd-year secondary education students in Galicia. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the YAM program effective in reducing severe suicidal ideation at 12 months from baseline within the experimental group and compared to the control group? - Is the YAM program effective in preventing the incidence of new suicidal attempts, 12 months from baseline in the experimental group compared to the control group? All participants in this study will be asked to: Complete a survey at baseline and after 12 months, consisting of measures for suicidal ideation and behavior, depressive symptoms, seeking help behaviors, bullying, problematic internet use, and emotional distress. Only those allocated to the experimental group will be asked to: Undergo the YAM program, an evidence-based intervention structured into five one-hour class group sessions (45-50 min.), focused on problem-solving by peers. The program consists of interactive presentations, dilemma discussions, role-playing, and reflection, all moderated by a trained YAM instructor. Twelve months after the intervention, all participants will undergo a re-evaluation using the same protocol. The researchers will compare differences in pre- and post-measures within the experimental and control groups, as well as between both groups, to assess the impact of the YAM intervention on outcomes such as suicidal ideation and attempts. At the end of the study, those who were allocated to the control group are going to be offered the YAM intervention program.
Depression and anxiety are frequently comorbid and share mechanisms contributing to dysfunction. Transdiagnostic approaches, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, streamline intervention and allow a broader population to benefit in a cost-effective fashion. Brief ACT interventions targeting at-risk individuals have the potential to prevent negative outcomes. Delivering these in a digital format overcomes attitudinal and structural barriers to accessing treatment.
A pragmatic superiority randomized controlled trial comparing Telepsychoeducation plus personalized videos vs. Telepsychoeducation without personalized videos for the prevention of future emotional distress in professionals and students from essential services with low to moderate levels of emotional distress in Brazil. Note: This study was approved by the Ethics and Research Committee of the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre and is originally registered at Plataforma Brasil, a Brazilian study registration platform (under CAAE: 30608420.5.0000.5327).

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate a mobile application (app) for depression treatment. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive the mobile app, "Moodivate", or not. If provided with Moodivate, participants will be asked to use the app regularly, at least once per day, throughout the study duration. Participants will be asked to complete electronic questionnaire measures throughout the study period. Participation in this study will take about 12 weeks.
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the effect of two behavioral interventions: brief cognitive-behavioral therapy and crisis intervention therapy through telepsychiatry, over the level of perceived stress, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic in medical residents and medical staff at three hospitals in two cities of Honduras.

Many researches have shown that patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and often also the family members have a decreased quality of life, problems related to the sexual sphere, depressive disorders and anxiety problems. To date still remains controversial the relationship between OSA and quality of life, also the link between sleep apnea syndrome and depression is unclear. In adult patients with OSA the treatment of choice is the application of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP: Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) at the opening of the airways. With the CPAP treatment the sleep normalizes and daytime sleepiness fades or disappears. Many studies have shown that this treatment determines improvement of the medical and psychological status. However, the rate of non-adherence to treatment reported in the literature is about 46-83%, considering as adherence the use of CPAP for at least 4 hours per night. A recent study has shown that CPAP used as a single treatment in patients with OSA and depression, has reduced the depressive symptoms but in a significant percentage of patients (42%), the depressive symptoms remained unchanged or worsened. At the present time have not been published, to our knowledge, studies concerning the effectiveness of the combined treatment of CPAP and psychological support on the mood and on the quality of life OSA patients. Therefore the aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the combined treatment with CPAP and psychological intervention with cognitive behavioural therapy on the mood and on the quality of life of OSA patients.
