Filter by:This study evaluates the effectiveness of vortioxetine on depressive symptoms in patients with depression coexisting with generalized anxiety disorder.
This an open label study using a FDA-cleared TMS stimulation protocols which will be used to treat patients who have responded or remitted from depression using acute clinical TMS therapy at the University of Missouri-Columbia Neuromodulation Clinic. TMS therapy will be given to subjects at monthly intervals. Depression severity questionnaires will be given monthly to determine if the subjects original response to TMS can be maintained. Subjects will be tapered down from antidepressant medication prior to TMS maintenance treatment. Results will be analyzed to determine the effectiveness and feasibility of maintenance TMS therapies in a clinical setting.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the short-term effects of mindfulness-based training in individuals suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD) as assessed by clinical interviewing, self-report assessment, cognitive evaluation and eye-tracking task.
The purpose of this research study is to use a specific type of non-invasive brain stimulation known as transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) to determine its effects on brain activity (measured with EEG) and mood in patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).
With the development of molecular biology and precise medical treatment, new challenges have been raised in the diagnosis and treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in children. In recent years, the criteria for clinical staging and efficacy evaluation of NHL in children have been updated. Studies in Germany and the United States have shown that pathological types of systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) in children and adolescents, minimal disseminated disease (MDD) in peripheral blood or bone marrow and minimal residual disease (MRD) are significantly associated with prognosis, suggesting that these factors need to be combined in risk stratification of ALCL patients. Recent studies have also suggested that PET/CT is helpful in evaluating residual lesions in patients with lymphoma after chemotherapy. In order to keep pace with the times in the diagnosis, clinical staging, risk stratification, efficacy evaluation and treatment of NHL in children. We adjusted the original NHL-BFM-90/95 regimen, mainly in the aspects of clinical staging, efficacy evaluation, risk stratification and treatment regimen，etc.
This pilot study aims to test the safety, feasibility, and initial efficacy of combined 10 week treatment of prolonged exposure (PE) and Pramipexole in patients with comorbid posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression (MDD). Resting state functional connectivity (rsFC) will be assessed at baseline and en of treatment.
Several studies suggested low serum levels of vitamin D have been associated with depression. So, the present study is designed to investigate the effect of vitamin D administration along with SSRIs in patients with MDD.
The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of bupropion on seizure threshold and duration in depressed patients receiving right unilateral ultra-brief electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). The investigators plan to recruit 10 patients into the study, administer sustained release (SR) bupropion 4 hours prior to receiving ECT. The investigators plan to compare the seizure threshold and seizure durations between ECT sessions with and without bupropion administration. The study's implication is to examine how ECT can be optimized by rational combination with medications that lower seizure threshold.
The proposed study addresses the potential utility of providing an accessible self-help intervention for patients in a medical setting with an estimated diagnosis of MDD. Specifically, the study will explore whether a) such an intervention can be effectively implemented in a primary care setting and b) patients originally seeking medical attention for an orthopedic problem will be willing to seek psychological treatment and, c) improvement in depression symptoms will lead to improvement in upper and lower extremity functioning.
Depression with ongoing insomnia is a common clinical presentation with patients. Clinical data suggests that patients with insomnia that receive concomitant treatment with a sleep aid experience a more robust antidepressant response along with a quicker response. The purpose of this clinical study is to compare the effectiveness of the FDA-approved insomnia medication suvorexant, also known as Belsomra®, as add-on treatment to an antidepressant to that of placebo plus antidepressant treatment in patients with depression and residual or ongoing insomnia.
