Deep Brain Stimulation of the Amygdala for Combat Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects approximately 30 % of American veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. Although the current therapy is effective, a percentage of patients will fail to improve and will develop chronic treatment-resistant PTSD. Patients suffering from PTSD experience intense suffering, lack of productivity and a higher risk …
BTL Emsella Chair Versus Sham for the Treatment of Stress Urinary Incontinence
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a condition that affects both men and women. SUI is the involuntary leakage of urine caused by an increase in intra-abdominal pressure from activities such as exercise, coughing, laughing, or sneezing. It can significantly affect quality of life as patients avoid activities or behaviors that …
Insomnia Treatment and Cardiometabolic Health in Older Adults With Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
This pilot pre-post trial will address a gap in knowledge related to addressing modifiable risk factors for cardiometabolic disease through treating residual insomnia, sleep difficulties that remain after successful treatment of another condition, in the context of PTSD in understudied older adults. This study provides a non-medication treatment for PTSD …
Autologous Transobturator Fascia Lata Sling in Treatment of Female Stress Urinary Incontinence
To evaluate the outcome of autologous transobturator fascia lata sling for treatment of female stress urinary incontinence at Al-Azhar university hospitals.
Targeting Oxidative Stress to Prevent Vascular and Skeletal Muscle Dysfunction During Disuse
Prolonged periods of reduced activity are associated with decreased vascular function and muscle atrophy. Physical inactivity due to acute hospitalization is also associated with impaired recovery, hospital readmission, and increased mortality. Older adults are a particularly vulnerable population as functional (vascular and skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction) and structural deficits (loss …
Functional Outcomes of Cannabis Use (FOCUS) in Veterans With Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a disabling psychiatric disorder that affects 20%-30% of U.S. Veterans. PTSD is strongly associated with increased risk for substance abuse comorbidity, including cannabis use disorder. Multiple states now include PTSD as a condition for which patients can be legally prescribed medical marijuana, despite the fact …
Overnight Trials With Heat Stress in Autonomic Failure Patients With Supine Hypertension
Patients with autonomic failure are characterized by disabling orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure on standing), and at least half of them also have high blood pressure while lying down (supine hypertension). Exposure to heat, such as in hot environments, often worsens their orthostatic hypotension. The causes of this are not …
Impact of Transcutaneous Vagal Nerve Stimulation on Stress Response in Major Depression
This study will identify the sex-dependent impact of expiratory-gated transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) on the modulation of the stress response circuitry and associated physiology in major depressive disorder (MDD). We will evaluate a sample of 80 adults with recurrent MDD randomized to receive active or sham expiratory-gated tVNS during …
Role of Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in Type 1 Gaucher Disease (GD1)
The purpose of this study is to measure levels of blood and brain chemicals related to oxidative stress and inflammation in healthy volunteers and individuals with Type 1 Gaucher disease (GD1) to see if these levels are altered by GD1.
Reflexology on Seizure Frequency, Fatigue, Stress and Sleep Quality in Epilepsy Patients
Epilepsy is among the diseases that cause loss of neurological abilities regardless of any trauma. Reflexology is one of the complementary therapies based on activating the body's self-healing power through special hand techniques applied to the feet. It is known that there are positive changes in seizure frequency, fatigue, stress …
