Filter by:To investigate whether 24IU oxytocin can result in changes in functional brain connectivity in patients with schizophrenia and healthy individuals using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The study will also examine the effect of oxytocin receptor gene polymorphism on the functional connectivity
The object is to develop a training system of simultaneous walking and cognitive training for improving cognitive function of people with schizophrenia. The training program, called "Simultaneous Walk And Think for Cognitive Health mobile application software"(SWATCH App), is developed by researchers. A randomized controlled trial will be carried out to test the effectiveness of the training system. Ninety participants will be randomly assigned to: simultaneous training of walking and cognitive group, the cognitive training group, and treatment as usual group. The intervention for those groups will lasts for 12 weeks, with a 12 week of followup. The measurements include the cognitive function, physical fitness, and quality of life.
The 22q11.2 microdeletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is a rare disease with a psychiatric phenotype. Indeed, the diagnosis of schizophrenia is made in 5 to 10% of adolescents and 25 to 40% of adults carrying the 22q11DS. Thus, although this pathology has been able to provide a genetically homogeneous model for the study psychosis etiology, it is not currently possible to establish a link between genomic rearrangement and psychotic symptoms. However, this robust model of genetic vulnerability could provide us a lot of translational informations about schizophrenia genetics. To go furthermore, twin studies have provided us precious data for the study of hereditary diseases. Combining this two approaches, the translational 22q11.2 project proposes a molecular study of two monozygotic 22q11.2DS twins discordant for the psychiatric phenotype -one carrying schizophrenia and the other having no psychiatric symptoms-.
The aim of this trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of CVL-231 following multiple-dose oral administration in subjects with schizophrenia.
People who have a severe mental illness can have poorer physical health and higher mortality rates than the general population. Their medications combined with low levels of physical activity and increased sedentary behaviour can general population and may help people with severe mental illness to be more active. A previous feasibility study has been conducted in the UK in a large city with positive findings. The current study will be conducted in rural settings in Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland. The intervention will last 13 weeks. People with Severe Mental Illness will be randomly assigned into one of two groups. Both groups will get information on the benefits of physical activity. In addition, one group will be shown how to use a step counter to measure their steps, be invited to a weekly group walk, and meet their coach every 2 weeks contribute to this. Walking is a good way to increase physical activity in the to see how they are getting on and to support them. The research team are interested in finding out how willing clinicians are to recruit people into the study, how willing people are to take part, do people then stick with the programme, and if not the reasons for people dropping out. Qualitative findings will explore whether participants feel they benefited from and enjoyed the programme. Findings will be used to investigate the feasibility to conduct a larger trial like this in the future.
This is a single-center open-label study to be conducted in the United States in subjects with bipolar I disorder or schizophrenia.
To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), tolerability, and safety of brexpiprazole QW formulation administered as single and multiple doses in patients with schizophrenia.
A clinical study to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of an investigational drug in people with schizophrenia. This study is accepting male and female participants between 18 years old -65 years old who have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. This study will be conducted in approximately 50 study centers worldwide. The study will last approximately 57 weeks.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial testing the effects of 10 sessions of continuous theta burst stimulation and the effects of 16 sessions of social cognitive remediation therapy on gesture performance and nonverbal communication skills in schizophrenia
The aim of this study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pentoxifylline, the novel phosphodiesterase inhibitor, as an adjunctive to risperidone in alleviating the negative symptoms of schizophrenia.
