Early Effects of Ketamine vs Placebo With Venlafaxine in Severe Depression Patients
Unipolar major depressive disorder is the leading cause of disability worldwide. The most commonly used treatments for major depressive episodes (MDE) are antidepressant medications. However, they have limited efficacy and their onset of action is long, ranging between 2 to 6 weeks. During this period, hospitalization can become necessary, especially …
Efficacy and Safety Assessment of Temporal Interference Stimulation to Improve Bipolar Depression
The aim of this study was to explore the efficacy and safety of temporal interference stimulation to improve bipolar depression, as well as to explore the corresponding neuroimaging mechanisms using magnetic resonance and electroencephalogram to provide novel intervention protocols and objective indicators of efficacy prediction for depressive episodes in bipolar …
Preliminary Efficacy Trial of a Digital Intervention for Depression and Cannabis Use
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a digital intervention for co-occurring cannabis use and depression. Participants will be randomized to complete Amplification of Positivity - Cannabis Use (AMP-C) or symptom tracking. The main outcomes will include changes in depressive symptoms and …
The Supplementation Therapy in Autism and Response to Treatment Study
In addition to the "core" symptoms of ASD (i.e., impaired communication, impaired reciprocal social interaction and restricted, repetitive and stereotyped patterns of behaviors or interests), it is estimated that up to 70% of autistic people present at least one comorbid psychiatric disorder, leading to a deterioration in quality of life, …
The Mechanisms of Underlying Accelerated Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Treatment-resistant Depression
In this project, the investigators evaluate an accelerated schedule of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for treatment-resistant depression. The investigators focuse on participants' brain activity and blood markers (Reelin, Apoer2, NMDAR, BDNF, exosomes and so on) to deepen the understanding of the mechanism of accelerated rTMS for treatment-resistant depression.
Multicenter Study of Lumateperone for the Treatment of Bipolar Depression in Pediatric Patients
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in pediatric patients who are experiencing major depressive episodes (MDEs) associated with a primary diagnosis of bipolar I or bipolar II disorder as confirmed by Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children-Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL), according to criteria …
Efficacy, Tolerability, and Cognitive Effects of Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Bipolar Depression
The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) as an add-on treatment for bipolar depression. Meanwhile, we aim to evaluate the effect of dTMS on cognitive function of bipolar depressive patients. We hypothesize dTMS would improve depressive symptoms and cognitive …
Prevention of Mother-to-child Transmission (PMTCT) Among Women Experiencing Depression in Malawi
Prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV virtually eliminates transmission of HIV from mothers to their infants. Adherence to PMTCT (i.e., to antiretroviral therapy, infant prophylaxis, and exclusive breastfeeding) during pregnancy and the postpartum period is challenging, with evidence from sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) showing suboptimal adherence and persistent viremia among …
Development of Attentional Biases for Affective Cues in Infants of Mothers With Depression
The goal of this study is to examine attentional biases for facial displays of emotion as a mechanism of risk in infants of mothers with postpartum major depression, and the potential role of infant arousal in the development of these attentional biases.
Evaluating the Role of Psilocybin Monitors in Psilocybin Therapy for Treatment Resistant Depression
Psilocybin, the chemical component of "magic mushrooms", has been administered with psychological support in several randomized clinical trials (RCTs) showing large and sustained antidepressant effects. The purpose of this study is to determine the role of psilocybin monitors on the effects of psilocybin therapy in adults with treatment resistant depression.
