Filter by:Post-partum depression (PPD) is a prevalent subtype of major depressive disorder that causes a significant distress to the woman and substantial impact on the whole family. Many studies implicate the glutamatergic system in pathological processes relevant to PPD disorders. There is evidence that cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) play a key role in how glutamatergic circuits wire up during development and how glutamatergic synapses, once formed, operate. However, it is unclear how dysregulation in diverse CAMs alter glutamatergic circuitries responsible for emotional and social behavior. Here, the investigators propose to evaluate the molecular and neurobiological underpinnings of PPD focusing on CAMs at glutamatergic synapses by using an integrated approach from mouse models to human patients. Moreover, the investigators will also perform a pilot study to investigate the impact of selective antidepressants, known to be linked to CAMs, in both human and mice.
This observational study aims to estimate the prevalence of women from 1 to 4 years postpartum in Yvelines, who are suspected to suffer from postpartum depression, using the Edinburg Post natal Depression Scale (EPDS) and the Patient Heath Questionnaire 2 (PHQ2) and evaluate the factors that could be linked to it.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the Nurse Family Partnership (NFP) in mothers with previous live births (multiparous or multip individuals). The main aims are: Specific Aim 1-Determine the effectiveness of NFP among multiparous women for reducing maternal morbidity and improving pregnancy outcomes. Specific Aim 2-Determine the effectiveness of NFP among index children (child from pregnancy when mother was enrolled) of multiparous women for improving child outcomes. Specific Aim 3 (Exploratory)-In preparation for a future study of the effects of preventive home-visiting programs on mother-index child-sibling triads, describe siblings (characteristics, role, influence) in the context of nurse home-visiting and evaluate the effectiveness of NFP on outcomes for prior-born siblings younger than 6 years old living in the home, including cognitive development, socioemotional development, and identification and referral to needed services.
Title: "Feasibility and acceptability study of "Mamá, te entiendo": an app-based intervention for reducing depressive symptoms in postpartum women" Funding: This work was funded by the Chilean National Agency of Research and Development (ANID Doctorado Nacional 2019 - 21190745). General objective: To assess the feasibility and acceptability of a guided 8-week cognitive-behavioral app-based intervention for Chilean postpartum women with depressive symptoms. Design: A small-scale parallel 2-arms trial will be conducted. Postpartum women with minor or major depression will be randomized to the app-based intervention or waitlist. The primary outcomes are feasibility and acceptability variables, mainly; recruitment and eligibility rates, intervention and study adherence, and participants' intervention satisfaction, use, and engagement. Semi-structured interviews with a sub-sample will provide more information about the participants' experience with the intervention. Women's depression diagnostic status will be assessed at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and 1-month follow-up. Other secondary outcomes will include participants' perceived social support, mother-infant bonding, and maternal satisfaction and self-efficacy.
The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed healthcare delivery; arguably, the fields of obstetrics and pediatrics have experienced some of the greatest changes as they have transitioned away from their role as a medical home and into more of an urgent care model of care. Baby2Home is a digital health intervention designed to bridge the resultant gaps in obstetrics and pediatrics healthcare services for new families over the first year of life. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate whether, compared to usual care, Baby2Home 1) improves maternal, paternal, and infant health service utilization outcomes over the first year postpartum, 2) improves maternal and paternal patient reported outcomes, and 3) reduces racial/ethnic and income-based disparities in preventive health services utilization and parental patient reported outcomes.
A randomized trial of pregnant people at risk for postpartum depression comparing the InBloom app (n = 76) to ROSE (n = 76; weekly scheduled group), and two control groups. We will assess Depression at baseline and 1, 2 and 3 months, ROI at 3 months, Satisfaction at 1 and 3 months and Perceived Access at 1 and 3 months. Subject participation will last up to 8 months (minimum 17 weeks pregnant through 3 months postpartum).
The goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a culturally-tailored mobile interactive education and support group intervention to supplement standard postpartum care activities in comparison to standard care alone on health-related behaviors and health outcomes in a randomized controlled trial among 2100 postpartum Indian women living in 3 geographically diverse Indian states to estimate the impact on maternal and neonatal health-related knowledge, health-related behaviors, and health outcomes. The investigators also seek to characterize mechanisms of impact including knowledge, social support, self-efficacy, and behavior change, and determine the cost-effectiveness.
After birth, the mother-child dyad can be impacted by issues which are usually under-detected or detected at early stage. Among these issues, neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) such as autism spectrum disorder are common and affect 1 in 59 children but are detected after 4 years of age although it could be detected using parent report screens as early as 12 or 18 months of age. Moreover, parents are the main contributors of the screening of NDD in their children. In a recent French survey, the identification of the first symptoms was done by parents in 61% of cases and a health professional in only 14% and the mean age of disease detection was 6.8 years for autism spectrum disorder. Other troubles that deserve early screening are hearing disorders which are observed in 1 child in 300 at 3 years of age and the main visual trouble in toddlers such as amblyopia which is observed with a prevalence of 3%. Another issue that deserves improvement is the rate of mandatory or recommended vaccines in toddler which is only 71% for C-meningococcus and 79% for measles or rubella. Concerning the mother, postnatal depression is defined as an episode of minor or major depression occurring during the first year postpartum with a pooled prevalence of 17.7%. Despite the high prevalence of this disorder and its potential impact on child development it remains underdetected and undertreated in daily practice. The common point between all these disorders is that they can benefit from early detection by questionnaires intended for parents for their children or for themselves, because early treatment improves prognosis or prevent diseases. An "all-in-one" multi-domain familial digital health record Patient reported outcomes application has been developing to help for early screening of neurodevelopmental disorders of toddler after birth to 3 years of age and mother's postnatal depression, to improve vaccinations rate of toddlers and to provide advice to parents for child development. The aim of the study is to assess in a real-world data-based the performances of this application.
Postpartum depression (PPD) may impair the mother-infant relationship and lead to both short and long-term suboptimal development of the baby. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a targeted intervention (HUGS: Happiness Understanding Giving and Sharing) for enhancing the mother-infant relationship.
Postpartum depression (PPD) is associated with significant health consequences for mothers and children, and the current COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the mental health of particularly vulnerable populations including pregnant Black and Latina women. There is an urgent need for evidence-based, accessible, and scalable mental health care options for these high-risk, vulnerable women. This study aims to: (a) compare the effectiveness of two digitally-delivered self-paced stress reduction programs in pregnant Black and Latina women at increased risk of PPD; and (b) examine barriers and facilitators to implementation within a large healthcare system.
