Filter by:To assess the two components of individualized homeopathic treatment for acute depression, i.e., to investigate the specific effect of individualized Q-potencies versus placebo and to investigate the effect of different approaches to the homeopathic case history taking(defined in this study as case history taking type I and II).
Targeting the glutamatergic system to treat depression is a new and promising strategy based on studies at the molecular, synaptic, and neuronal level but also on results of studies conducted in animal models and first clinical studies involving depressed patients.Ketamine has been proposed as a novel approach to induce rapid antidepressant response. In this pilot project the investigators aim to introduce this novel and promising approach into clinical practice. Besides the assessment of clinical efficacy, the investigators will put a special emphasis on the assessment of ketamine-associated effects on brain function using fMRI and cognitive testing.
The main purpose of this study is to determine whether multiple doses.of BMS-886949 are safe and tolerable
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the speed of the clinical antidepressant action of fluoxetine can be accelerated by administering DU125530 a full 5-HT1A antagonist.
The purpose of this project is to assess the effectiveness of a family-based therapy (Attachment based family therapy-ABFT) for Norwegian adolescents (13-17 years) referred to specialist mental heath clinics.
This trial investigates the biological effect of exercise training on depression. Participants will randomly be allocated to either a aerobic exercise group performing exercise on stationary bikes or a group performing low-impact exercise such as stretching exercises. Both groups will attend sessions three times per week for 3 months. Before and after the intervention the investigators will measure the severity of depression using the Hamilton depression rating scale (HAM-D17).
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the relapse preventing efficacy of escitalopram in a dose range and nortriptylin in a single dose in patients having been treated successfully with a course of electroconvulsive treatment (ECT).
We examined the hypotheses that severely depressed inpatients treated for 5 weeks with IPT-S plus pharmacotherapy have 1) a higher reduction in depressive symptoms and 2) higher response- and remission rates compared to pharmacotherapy plus CM. For the follow-up period (12 months) we hypothesized a better symptomatic and psychosocial longterm outcome and lower rates of relapse for patients initially treated with combination therapy.
This pilot study will assess the efficacy of several sequential pharmacological treatments for patients with Refractory Depression.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of risperidone and ECT improves a patient's response in depression compared to ECT alone.
