Filter by:The overall strategy is to recruit veterans with PTSD who report minimal current cannabis use but are interested in or considering therapeutic cannabis to manage mental health symptoms (anxiety, depression, PTSD and/or suicidality). The information gained from this study could lead to the development of new treatments for persons who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder and maintain better mental health.
The purpose of this research is to determine if a brief treatment method is effective for preventing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and a number of other concerns following injury.
The goal of this cross-sectional observational study is to analyze childbirth-related PTSD, traumatic birth experiences and stress symptoms postpartum. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the prevalence of traumatic birth experiences, PTSD and stress symptoms in a Swedish postnatal sample? - What are the risk factors for postnatal mental ill-health? Additional goals are to make cross-cultural translations of the instruments City BiTS and Birth Satisfaction Scale - Revised. Participants will answer an online surveys including several instruments measuring postnatal stress and mental ill-health.
This single-arm study will test the preliminary efficacy of a virtually delivered, live-online 12-week group model of Internal Family Systems (IFS) for individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorders (Program for Alleviating and Reducing Trauma, Stress, and Substance Use, PARTS-SUD). Participants will be in a group for 12 weeks and will be asked to complete survey sessions at baseline and during week 4, 8 and 12.
The New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute is performing this research to accelerate diverse disease research using cells from the body (such as skin or blood cells) to make stem cells and other types of cells, conduct research on the samples, perform genetic testing, and store the samples for future use. Through this research, researchers hope to identify future treatments or even cures for the major diseases of our time.
This is an add-on substudy to an already-approved clinical trial "A Multi-Site Phase 3 Study of MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy for PTSD" (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03537014) which is to be a phase 3 clinical trial studying the efficacy of MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The parent study has been approved by Copernicus Group IRB and is being run by the MAPS Public Benefit Corporation, and is a randomized controlled trial comparing the clinical efficacy of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy to Placebo-assisted psychotherapy. The parent study will recruit participants with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and involves 20 total study visits over the course of 18 weeks including 3 preparatory psychotherapy visits plus 3 separate treatment sessions involving psychotherapy plus the administration of MDMA vs. placebo and 3 follow up psychotherapy visits after each treatment session. This substudy adds on the collection of saliva in a salivary DNA collection kit at baseline and after treatment to the parent study clinical trail so as to assess whether the MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy exerts influence on the epigenetic regulation of stress-associated genes as assessed in the salivary epithelial and white blood cells of the research participants. We aim to further assess whether any such changes are correlated with improvements in PTSD symptoms.
This study aims to test whether aerobic exercise performed after fear extinction learning improves cognitive, physiological, and neural indices of extinction recall in a sample of trauma-exposed men and women with and without posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Participants will complete a clinical intake visit (Day 0), followed by a three-day fear conditioning (day 1), fear extinction + activity (day 2), and fear extinction recall (day 3) protocol.
This study will evaluate a new form of non-invasive deep brain therapy for individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Low-intensity transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation will first be delivered using a range of stimulation parameters during psychophysical and physiological monitoring. A well-tolerated stimulation protocol will be selected for subsequent testing in a blinded randomized sham-controlled cross-over trial. The trial will evaluate brain target engagement using magnetic resonance imaging and numerical scales of PTSD, cognitive performance, and mood.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test how exercise affects learning and memory processes relevant to the treatment of PTSD. Participants will complete a baseline intake followed by two experimental sessions. During the first experimental session, participants will undergo an MRI session of imaginal exposure to traumatic memory cues followed by 30-minutes of moderate intensity exercise or low intensity exercise. Participants will complete a second session of imaginal exposure with MRI 24 hours later.
The goal of this pilot quasi-randomized study is test the feasibility, acceptability, and initial efficacy of Yoga for Warriors treatment program for comorbid chronic pain and PTSD, conducted virtually through the Richmond Veterans Affairs Medical Center (RICVAMC). the main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Whether a virtual intervention for chronic pain and PTSD is feasible and acceptable for veterans. 2. Using a wait-list control group design, to determine preliminary efficacy of the intervention. 3. Examine follow-up data to determine if benefits are maintained over time.
