Filter by:The primary aim of the study is to investigate whether a novel mobile App-based behavioral intervention in pregnant women can: (1) prevent and/or decrease the incidence of perinatal mood disorders (2) decrease the severity and/or duration of perinatal mood disorders in affected participants (3) increase access of pregnant women to behavioral intervention and support tools (4) increase the satisfaction of pregnant women with their prenatal care.
To characterize the real-life clinical use of AOM in a hospitalized patient population with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder or BP1 requiring LAI therapy and evaluate its short-term effectiveness associated with its clinical use in the proposed patient population, including time to discharge, efficacy, safety, tolerability, and patients' satisfaction.
This is a double blind adjunctive randomized controlled trial for schizophrenia using acetazolamide.
Although cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) has shown efficacy in reducing symptoms and rates of mood relapse in adolescents at high risk for severe mood disorders (SMD; i.e., bipolar I/II disorder and recurrent or unremitting major depression), a significant limitation to the CBT's efficacy is the low rate of participant adherence to the prescribed between-session homework tasks. Mobile health applications have the potential to improve adherence to and acceptance of treatment through embedded treatment content, skill-practice, thought and symptom monitoring, all of which are facilitated by reward contingencies and notifications. This study examines whether a mobile application-enhanced CBT can improve participant adherence and treatment acceptance for adolescents at high risk for SMD.
Background: More than 12,000 people have taken part in research at the Experimental Therapeutics & Pathophysiology Branch at the National Institute of Mental Health Intramural Program. This has led to advances in the treatment of depression, bipolar disorder, and suicide risk. Researchers want to follow up with this group to see if they continue to have mental health symptoms and receive psychiatric treatments. Objective: To learn the long-term impact of depression, bipolar disorder, and suicide risk. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who signed consent for Protocol 01-M-0254 over a year ago. Design: This study has 2 phases: an online phase and a telephone phase. It has no in-person or face-to-face contact. In Phase 1, participants will fill out online surveys. They will access the surveys through the study website. The questions will focus on their current thoughts and feelings. The surveys will also ask about their current treatments for their mental health symptoms. At the end of the surveys, they will be asked if they would like to take part in Phase 2. If so, they will mark yes. Phase 2 includes a phone interview. They will be contacted by email to schedule the interview. In Phase 2, participants will be asked more in-depth questions about how they are feeling. They will also be asked which psychiatric medicines and treatments they have used since they left NIH. In both phases, participants can skip any questions they do not want to answer. The online surveys will take 30 minutes to complete. The phone interview will last 1-4 hours. The information that participants give in this study may be linked to their other NIH research records.
This is a single-blind randomized within-subject crossover design study that will be conducted in 2 phases. In Phase 1, up to 50 participants, after signing informed consent and determining eligibility, will undergo a baseline EEG and cognitive assessment. In Phase 2 participants will undergo tACS at IAF+2Hz, IAF-2Hz, and IAF during a double-flash illusion task in a randomized order. The tACS will be applied with a current of 1-2 mA (milliamperes) via two saline soaked electrode sponges (25 cm²) applied to the back of the head. The investigator's hypothesis is that participant's will perform better on the visual task while tACS is set to 2 Hz above their IAPF, relative to tACS set to 2 Hz below their IAPF.
The aim of this study is to compare, in cost-effectiveness and cost-utility terms, a brief transdiagnostic cognitive-behavioural therapy in two different modes, individual and group, with the treatment usually administered in primary care (TAU). Participants between 18 and 65 years old and with, according to the pretreatment evaluation, mild to moderate emotional disorders will be randomly allocated to the three clusters. They will be assessed again immediately after treatment and 6 and 12 months later. The study hypotheses expect to find (H1) the individual treatment generally as effective as the group one, whereas (H2) the TAU will be the least effective. (H3) The group therapy is expected to get the best results in terms of cost-effectiveness and (H4) the TAU will get the worst cost-effectiveness results. Furthermore, (H5) it is expected to find these results across the follow-up assessments too.
Chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases (CIRD) affect many organ systems. Painful sensations within the joints spine, hand and foot deformities, low quality of life and psychosocial status in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis and psoriatic arthritis can lead to the development of anxiety and depression. Prevalences of anxiety increase in patients suffering of CIRD, compared with healthy individuals. Another connection has been identified by the links between depression and systemic inflammation. It is proven that higher plasma levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) affect neurotransmitter metabolism, with influence on patients mood. The purpose of EMOTION study is therefore to analyze thymic variation under TNFa therapy, as treatment of CIRDs.
The purpose of this study is to examine patient effectiveness outcomes of a transdiagnostic treatment for youth emotional disorders, implemented in a partial hospitalization program (PHP). Participants will be youth between ages 6 to 17 and their families, as well as clinicians, participating in the PHP program at Children's Hospital Colorado. Additionally, the research team will study modifications to the transdiagnostic intervention that are required to feasibly and effectively deliver it in a PHP setting.
The DE-GIP study compares the efficacy and differential efficacy of two manualized psychodynamic psychotherapies for emotional disorders. The study therefore has two independent aims: A) The first aim is to test the hypothesized non-inferiority (NI margin: 5 points in PHQ-ADS, requiring N = 152 for a one-sided α = 0.025 and 1-ß = 0.80) of Guided Imagery Psychotherapy for Emotional Disorders (GIP-EMO) to the established Unified Psychodynamic Protocol for Emotional Disorders (UPP-EMO). The primary outcome is anxiety and depression severity (as measured by the PHQ-ADS) 12 months after the beginning of treatment. B) The second aim is to assess whether GIP-EMO is more effective for patients meeting the GIP suitability criteria (as measured by the Suitability Questionnaire for Guided Imagery Psychotherapy) than for patients who do not meet these criteria. Furthermore, it will be tested whether GIP-EMO is more effective than UPP-EMO for patients who meet the GIP suitability criteria.
