Filter by:The purpose of this study is to explore the safety, tolerability and activity of SXC-2023 or placebo when dosed for 5 days in adults with tobacco use disorder who voluntarily abstain from the use of cigarettes.
This study aims to use resting-state and task based functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) as a tool to evaluate trait characteristics of impulsivity in subjects with borderline personality disorder.
Sleeve gastrectomy is one of the most common surgical procedures performed today for patients that undergo bariatric surgery. One of the primary reasons for morbid obesity is unhealthy eating habits and the belief that changes in those habits can ensure the success. Objectives: The investigators aimed to explore the effect of different eating habits prior to the bariatric surgery on the surgery success and on different aspect of quality of life. Design: The investigators conducted this study on patients that underwent sleeve gastrectomy as the first bariatric operation.
The study aims to examine a battery of behavioral and questionnaire measures in 4 disorders clinically associated with impulsivity and in health controls, to: 1) investigate if the different populations have a distinct behavioral profile, and 2) to investigate if there are specific measures that are reliable and sensitive measures of impulsivity across diagnoses.
The " Behavioural Addiction and Genetics in Parkinson's Disease " study (BADGE-PD) is a national (France), multicenter, genetic association, case-control study to identify genetic factors associated with behavioural addiction (or Impulse Control Disorders, ICD) related to dopamine agonists treatment in Parkinson's disease (PD). Polymorphisms of candidate genes supposed to be involved in this adverse effect will be compared in 200 PD patients with ICD (n=200) and 200 matched PD patients without ICD (n=200).
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of naltrexone in reducing ICD symptoms in Parkinson's disease patients taking a dopamine agonist.
The goal of this study is to examine the effectiveness two forms of psychotherapy (also known as "talk therapy" ) for individuals with anger and aggression problems. Anger and aggression are everywhere - on the road, in the schools, at little league games, at home, and at work. In this study we are testing usefulness of anger management techniques in reducing symptoms of Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED) and impulsive, aggressive behavior.
The purpose is to explore the frequency of impulse control disorders in Parkinson's patients treated with different Parkinson's medications.
This study was developed in order to assess the effects of risperidone (Risperdal) as compared with placebo on cognitive-motor performance (attention, memory, and hand steadiness) and body movements. We propose to study the effects of risperidone on cognitive-motor performance in children already medicated for severe conduct problems. We would also like to look at safety by assessing these children for dyskinetic movements. We already have a sizable cohort of children maintained on risperidone. Our hypotheses are as follows: 1. Risperidone will have no adverse effects on cognitive-motor performance in children who have received maintenance therapy for 4 to 20 months. 2. Children tested during placebo will show no more dyskinetic movements than during risperidone treatment (i.e., there will be no unmasking of tardive dyskinesia).
The purpose of this study is to see how different forms of "Anger Management" compare in reducing anger and impulsive aggressive symptoms in people. "Anger Management" is a common form of "talk therapy" used to help people with anger problems. There are different types of "talk therapy" used to help people for anger problems and this study will compare two types of talk therapy in people with Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED). IED is a disorder in which there are frequent and sudden outbursts of anger (yelling, throwing and breaking things, hitting people) that lead to problems with other people socially or at work.
