Filter by:The hypothesis to be tested: After the construction of a database of anthropometric measurements, the system would extract important features of a given facial surface and be able to match it with existing morphometric figures. A given combination of normal and abnormal measurements will open a "probable diagnosis" and a list of "differential diagnosis" that will be expressed as percent of matching in a descendent order to the examiner.
The purpose of this study is: 1. to find out the structural or functional effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) in major depressive disorder (MDD); 2. find special abnormalities in depression secondary to other disease, e.g., autoimmune disease like systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). 3. find the relationship between the efficacy of antidepressant and the change of neuroimaging in MDD 4. to find possible predispose to MDD 5. to explore the DNA methylation status in depression;
This is a pilot project to study if repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) will benefit patients with bipolar depression safely. Based on published studies, this study hypothesizes that rTMS on the left dorsal prefrontal lobe will improve symptoms in some patients who have failed at least two medications.
This NON INTERVENTIONAL OBSERVATIONAL STUDY is conducted in Europe. The primary aim is to observe the haemostatic efficacy of NovoSeven® treatment during routine practice in German clinics. The observational study observes patients with congenital haemophilia with inhibitors to coagulation factors VIII or IX, acquired haemophilia, congenital FVII deficiency, or Glanzmann's thrombasthenia who have received at least one dose of NovoSeven® for treatment of a bleeding episode or for the prevention of a bleeding when undergoing surgery or an invasive procedure.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of extended dosing with mipomersen (ISIS 301012) in participants with familial hypercholesterolemia or severe hypercholesterolemia on lipid-lowering therapy who had completed either the 301012-CS5 (NCT00607373), 301012-CS7 (NCT00706849), 301012-CS17 (NCT00477594) or MIPO3500108 (NCT00794664) clinical drug trials.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of two talk therapies for OEF/OIF Veterans at the Michael J. Crescenz and the West Haven VA Medical Centers. Participants will randomly receive one of two individual treatments intended to improve the sleep disturbance and nightmares of returning Veterans.
We hope to learn more about the biology of psychiatric illness with the hope of improving the diagnosis and treatment of such psychiatric conditions as major depression.
Observational, prospective (1 year follow up), multicenter, non-interventional open label study in order to assess the factors that predict onset of mood disorders episodes (depression, mania, hypomania and mixed) in stabilized patients with bipolar disorder I or II in Spain. Other objectives are 1. to describe the clinical course of illness in a cohort of patients with TB I or II: duration, severity, polarity and seasonality 2. to describe clinical and functional situation of patients during the different phases, evaluating prognostic meaning of subsyndromal symptoms 3. to evaluate the economical impact on health service of these patients (hospitalization, primary care, treatments…). Target population is ambulatory bipolar I and II patients, clinically stabilized for at least the two months prior to recruitment and who had at least one acute episode (depressive, manic, hypomanic or mixed) within the year prior to recruitment. The primary endpoint is the onset of mood disorders episodes (depression, mania, hypomania and mixed) during the follow-up period and evaluation of which factors predict onset of mood episodes
This multi-centred study will be conducted at three centres. The design will be a randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group one. This investigation will evaluate the efficacy of add-on Quetiapine XR (extended release) treatment for patients who meet diagnostic criteria for depressive disorders and one or more comorbid anxiety disorder.
The purpose of this phase of the study is to assess the feasibility of a cognitive behavioral therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in persons receiving outpatient services at an addiction treatment program. The next phase of the study will be a more rigorous investigation of the efficacy of the PTSD therapy within addiction treatment settings.
