The Impact of a Race-Based Stress Reduction Intervention
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a stress reduction program called Resilience, Stress, and Ethnicity (RiSE) improves well-being, inflammation, and the epigenome in African American (AA) women who have risk factors for heart or metabolic disease. The main question it aims to answer is whether an …
A Neurosensory Account of Anxiety and Stress (Study 2)
This study will take a basic neuroscience approach to investigate pathological mechanisms underlying PTSD. Additionally, the study aims to identify how Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) brain stimulation can modulate and correct neural networks and related emotions of anxious arousal and hypervigilance, with the goal of assessing tACS brain stimulation …
Neuromodulation of Brain and Emotional Responses to Psychological Stress
Investigators are conducting this study to test if temporarily and non-invasively stimulating the brain will affect the emotional response to stress in healthy participants. Participants will perform a series of tasks while completing an MRI scan. After this, participants will be randomized to undergo transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) at two …
Increasing Physical Activity Through Social Support and Stress Resilience
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn the effects of technology enhancements when combined with basic education, goal-setting, and self-monitoring to increase physical activity among older adults living alone, experiencing subjective cognitive decline, and currently engaging minimal physical activity (60 minutes or less of moderate to vigorous physical …
Vascular Function and Oxidative Stress in Emergency Medical Responders
The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize blood vessel function and oxidative stress (a harmful condition that damages cells and tissues) in emergency medical technicians (EMTs). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does an overnight shift work in emergency medical technicians reduce blood vessel function and …
Silexan in the Treatment of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Trial
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common and debilitating mental illness. Current treatments for PTSD include psychotherapy and antidepressant medications. Many patients are unable to tolerate psychotherapy for PTSD and drop out of it. In addition, its effectiveness is limited. Up to 50 percent of patients who receive psychotherapy do …

The goal of this prospective, waitlist-controlled, 1:1 randomized study is to evaluate if an online mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) intervention reduces treatment-related stress levels among patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does an online MBSR intervention reduce stress levels (measured through the …
Effect of Attentional Therapy on Post-traumatic Stress Disorder
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with an attentional bias towards negative stimuli, which is supposed to contribute to the development and the maintenance of the disorder. We recently showed using eye-tracking evidenced two types of AB towards negative stimuli: a "physiological AB" found both in healthy and individual with …
The Effects of Chicory Root-derived Prebiotic on Mood and Stress Responsiveness in Healthy Adults With Mild to Moderate Levels of Stress and Anxiety
Emerging evidence from preclinical research suggests that prebiotic fibres may play a beneficial role in supporting mental health through modulation of the gut-brain axis-a complex communication network linking the gastrointestinal tract and the central nervous system. Chicory root-derived prebiotic fibre, already well-established for its positive effects on glycaemic control and …
Effects of Stellate Ganglion Block in Post-traumatic Stress Disorder
This study will enroll patients meeting Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) criteria for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Following an initial screening visit, clinical assessment, and enrollment, subjects will be randomized into treatment and placebo arms. Both cohorts will undergo a pre-intervention functional magnetic resonance imaging …
