Adjunctive Bright Light Therapy in Patients With Bipolar Depression and Eveningness
This is a randomized placebo-controlled trial to examine the efficacy of six-week bright light therapy as adjunctive treatment for patient with bipolar depression and eveningness.
Tractography Guided Subcallosal Cingulate Deep Brain Stimulation for Treatment Resistant Depression
Treatment resistant depression remains a major problem for individuals and society. Surgical procedures may provide relief for some of these patients. The most frequently considered surgical approach is deep brain stimulation (DBS) of a part of the brain called the subcallosal cingulate region. However, the effectiveness and safety is not …
rTMS With and Without Text4Support for the Treatment of Resistant Depression.
This study is a multicenter prospective, parallel design, two-arm, rater-blinded randomized controlled pilot trial. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment conditions. In the first condition, treatment consists of rTMS sessions combined with Text4Support. The second condition is made up of the treatment as usual (rTMS sessions …
Early Intervention to Protect the Mother-Child Relationship After Postpartum Depression
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.
Cancer Related Major Depression Treated With a Single Dose of Psilocybin
The goal of this randomized placebo controlled trial is to compare the antidepressant effect of a single oral dose of psilocybin 25 mg compared to 1 mg in 100 patients with cancer related major depressive disorder. The main question it aims to answer is: The primary objective of this study …
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to Treat Depression in Autism Spectrum Disorder
This study will assess clinical and behavioral measures along with electroencephalogram (EEG), event-related potentials (ERPS), and eye-tracking (ET) prior to and following a single intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) session to provide preliminary insight into the potential of TMS as an intervention for depression in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder …
Serotonin-norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitor in Prophylaxis of Depression Following Fragility Fractures
The goal of this pilot study is to learn about the feasibility about prescribing anti-depressants at discharge in patients aged 50 years and older with a lower extremity fragility fracture. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the obstacles to enrolling patients and prescribing anti-depressants among older …
Efficacy and Safety of tACS for Depression: a Multicenter RCT Study
Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a promising non-invasive technique for major depression, because of its advantage of lower risks and expenses compared to other therapies such as deep brain stimulation, electroconvulsive therapy, and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of depression treated by tACS have been conducted …
rTMS to Target Neural Connectivity and Rumination in Treatment-Resistant Depression
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to part of the brain called the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (VMPFC) can treat a symptom called rumination in adults with major depression that has not responded to at least one medication trial. The main question it …
Improving Sleep to Prevent Depression & Anxiety in Adolescents at High Risk
Emerging evidence has shown that sleep interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) improve depressive and anxiety symptoms in adults, even when the intervention is brief, such as four to six sessions. The overarching aim of the proposed research is to conduct a pilot trial to evaluate whether …
