Effectiveness of an Integrated Care Pathway for Depression: Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial
This a stepped wedged cluster RCT with two intervention arms--Treatment As Usual (TAU) and an Integrated Care Pathway (ICP). Eligible participants are between the ages of 13 and 18, who present to community mental health agencies with depressive symptoms as the primary concern. The primary objective is to establish the …
The Role of mGluR5 in CBT-I
This is mechanistic clinical trial that evaluates the role of one of the glutamate receptors (mGluR5) in cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) as a common pathway in improving sleep and depression.
Reward-specific Changes of the Chemical Messenger Dopamine in the Brain of Healthy and Depressed People
Major depressive disorder was shown to be associated with pathological alterations within neurotransmitter systems of the brain. Based on earlier study results, it is assumed that the neurotransmitter dopamine is relevant for several symptoms of depression, e.g., loss of interest or pleasure and lack of motivation. Thus, it is assumed …
Effect of Aerobic Exercise on Biomarkers in Depression
This study aims to investigate changes in the levels of biomarkers (IGF-1, FGF2, and EGF) involved in neuron development in patients diagnosed with major depression through the effects of breathing exercises and aerobic exercise, as well as to examine the levels of biomarkers (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1) and oxidative stress …
In-patient SCC TMS
The investigators are studying the feasibility, safety, and tolerability of administering accelerated repetitive Transcranial magnetic stimulation(a-rTMS) at frequencies other than standard 10 Hz for in-patient Subjects diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder. Participants will be recruited from the Resnick Neuropsychiatric Hospital. This study will enroll 30 participants who will undergo up …
Effectiveness of MST Versus ECT for Major Depressive Episode
Despite advancements in Magnetic Seizure Therapy (MST) and Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), there remains a need for further research to replicate clinical outcomes and understand the therapeutic targets of these treatments. This study aims to address these gaps through a double-blinded, randomized, non-inferiority investigation comparing the …
Pharmacologic Treatment Augmentation in Chronic Depression
To enroll in this clinical trial, prospective participants must meet stringent criteria. The participants need to fall within the age range of 18 to 64 and exhibit chronic depression at therapy resistance stage 2. This stage signifies that the participants have undergone unsuccessful treatment with at least two different antidepressants, …
Theta-Burst Stimulation to Treat Depression
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the effects of non-invasive brain stimulation protocols using intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) on brain plasticity and depression severity in depressed individuals aged 18 to 50 years old. Brain plasticity is the brain's ability to change through growth or reorganization. iTBS is …
Linking Affective Dynamics in Response to Daily Stress to Peripheral Vascular Function in Working Age Adults
The objective of this proposal is to determine whether heightened negative affective responsivity (NA-R) to daily stressors is related to blunted nitric oxide (NO)-mediated endothelium-dependent dilation (EDD) in working age adults and the extent to which this association is impacted by major depressive disorder (MDD).
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) Compared to Ketamine Alone for the Treatment of Depression
The proposed study is a single-site, randomized, controlled clinical trial (RCT) comparing ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) to a standard evidence-based regimen of ketamine administered in a medical model without psychotherapy (KET). Eligible study participants will be adults with major depressive disorder (MDD). Adults with MDD will be randomized to KAP or …
