NCT00191932
A multicentre, randomised, open label study of out-patients with major depression who have failed to respond adequately to antidepressant treatment for their current episode of depression. The study compares outcomes associated with two methods of switching from current antidepressant to duloxetine
NCT00035321
The purposes of this study are to determine: * Whether olanzapine plus fluoxetine in combination will help patients with treatment-resistant major depression. * The safety of olanzapine plus fluoxetine in combination, plus and any side effects that might be associated with the combination. * The effectiveness of olanzapine plus fluoxetine compared to olanzapine and fluoxetine alone.
NCT00042575
The Purposes of this Study are to determine: The safety of duloxetine and any side effects that might be associated with it. Whether duloxetine can help patients with major depression. It is possible that information collected during this study will be analyzed by the sponsor in the future to evaluate duloxetine for other possible uses or for other medical or scientific purposes other than those currently proposed. Duloxetine might not have any good effects for you.
NCT00103415
During one year, 5-8% of the population will suffer from major depression. Some of the key symptoms are loss of interest in daily activities, loss of energy and sleeping disturbances. The financial consequences of this disease is estimated to be more than 30 million pounds per year in Great Britain and USA alone. There is an increasing interest in the effect exercise has on depression. Smaller studies indicate that exercise is a good treatment for depression. This study will be a large scale randomized trial and will hopefully bring important knowledge on the effects exercise has on depression. We will compare the effect endurance training, weight-lifting exercise and a control group has on depressive symptoms after 4 months training, twice a week.
NCT00350675
In this ecological study we examine the impact of stress from repeated terrorist attacks during the second initifada on medical utilization by the Israeli population. We hypothesize that in weeks following serious terror attacks there will be an increase in prescriptions for psychiatric medications and an increased number of unexplained somatic complaints. We will also examine associations with overall medical utlization. We will consider age, gender and effects of geographic poximity to location of attacks.
NCT00335205
We hypothesize that depressed patients who have not responded to their current antidepressant medication will respond to the addition of ropinirole to their current regimen at a rate better than placebo.
NCT00300404
We investigate whether the add-on specific antitoxoplasmatic medication has positive effects in individuals with schizophrenia or major depression seropositive for Toxoplasma gondii (TG) infection. As TG modulates neurotransmitter metabolism affecting serotonin and dopamine we hypothesize that this chronic persistent infection might play a role for depressive and psychotic symptomatology. Therefore, on the basis of an ex juvantibus approach, specific anti TG medication might further improve psychiatric symptomatology in affected patients. This is investigated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized treatment trial.
NCT00203723
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of risperidone and ECT improves a patient's response in depression compared to ECT alone.
NCT00172848
The purpose of this study was to discuss the relation of mastery, social support and depression in patients with depressive disorder. Cross-sectional quantitive study and purposive sampling method were designed. Data collection and analysis was conducted through structural questionnaires (including demographics, social support scale, mastery scale, CESD scale) at a medical center in Taipei. Results showed that patients with depression whose degree of depression was negative correlated with mastery and social support, and mastery was positive correlated with social support. Regression statistics results showed that mastery, social support, age, loss of jobs can predict degree of depression up to 60 percent. The mastery was strongest independent predictable factor to degree of depression, and had partial or total mediate effects to age, loss of jobs, financial condition, and social support. The result of this study suggested that clinically the care of patients with depression should focus on their confidence in mastery and provide strategies to promote their confidence in mastery, which can effectively reduce the degree of depression of those patients.
NCT00222820
We are doing this pilot study to learn more about four aspects of treating depression: 1. The features of a depressed person's mood and anxiety and how these features affect a person's capacity to get better and stay better. 2. If depressed people with certain features of mood and anxiety respond better to therapy, medication or a combination of therapy and medication. 3. Whether or not a person's personality traits affect how they respond to treatment. 4. The gene involved in processing antidepressant medication
NCT00125554
The purpose of this study is to test whether metyrapone is an effective and safe augmenting agent in the treatment of major depression.
NCT00122083
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a simple marketing intervention in changing attitudes towards depression and its treatment among university students.
NCT00111059
Cardiovascular risk factors and psycho-social characteristics will be determined in obese and non-obese patients in the setting of primary medical care.
NCT00037505
The overall purpose of this research is to examine whether depression influences immune system function. Studies indicate that individuals who are depressed experience coronary heart disease at a higher rate than expected. This study's goal is to begin identifying mechanisms that might be responsible for this process. This research also examines whether behavioral processes (e.g. smoking) or hormonal processes (e.g. adrenaline release) are responsible for immune system differences between depressed and nondepressed people
