The study is a parallel arm cluster randomised controlled pilot trial. We will recruit adolescents aged 15 to 18 years in senior high schools. Participants will be randomised to receive the Y-MIND psychological intervention or enhanced usual care.
NCT07211087
Depression is a common psychiatric condition among Youth with HIV (YWH), with prevalence as high as 25% in the United States. The treatment of depression is essential for improving both psychiatric and medical outcomes for YWH (e.g., adherence to antiretroviral treatment). Practice guidelines for the treatment of depression and substantial research (including for those with and without HIV), indicate that measured-care treatment (care decisions guided by systematic symptom measurement) and using a combination of a medication management algorithm (MMA) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) that is tailored to the population is efficacious. Unfortunately, these methods are seldom fully implemented in practice, leading to markedly reduced intervention effectiveness. This proposed project will compare an enhanced version of combination treatment (COMBEX) to our previously tested combination treatment (COMB) in a Hybrid Type 2 Cluster Randomized Trial. COMBEX will be enhanced by five ERIC implementation strategies as suggested in our post-trial interviews from our efficacy trial and it will also continue to use the ERIC strategies used in COMB. It is hypothesized that these additional ERIC strategies will improve sustainability and depression outcomes at 48 and 72 weeks.
NCT07329673
The purpose of this study is to evaluate QbMobile's ability to collect objective data to identify specific symptom profiles in differential diagnoses (ASD, MDD, Bipolar Disorder and Anxiety Disorder) that are common with ADHD.
NCT07085143
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of Compound Ciwujia Granules in treating depression disorder (heart-spleen deficiency syndrome). The study primarily aims to address the following key questions: * Can Compound Ciwujia Granules effectively alleviate depressive symptoms in patients with heart-spleen deficiency syndrome? * What adverse reactions might participants experience while taking Compound Ciwujia Granules? Researchers will compare Compound Ciwujia Granules to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if Compound Ciwujia Granules works to treat depression disorder. Participants are required to complete the following procedures: 1. Take Compound Ciwujia Granules or placebo twice daily for 8 weeks; 2. Continue concomitant SSRIs throughout the treatment period; 3. Return to the hospital for scheduled assessments at Week 4 and Week 8; 4. Complete a 4-week follow-up period after the 8-week treatment phase.
NCT07152925
This clinical trial aims to determine whether beta-band transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can improve impulse inhibition in adolescents with non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and to evaluate its safety. The primary questions it seeks to answer are: * Can beta-band tACS significantly reduce the frequency of self-injury and scores on impulsivity scales in adolescents with NSSI? * What discomfort or medical issues may participants experience during tACS intervention? Researchers will compare beta-band tACS with sham stimulation (a procedure that mimics the real stimulation without delivering effective current) to verify its efficacy. Participants will: * Receive two sessions of either tACS or sham stimulation daily, spaced 4 hours apart, for 7 consecutive days (14 sessions in total). * Undergo scale assessments, behavioral tasks, and eye-tracking tests before and after the intervention. * Record any self-injury episodes and adverse reactions, with continuous monitoring and psychological support provided by a professional team.
NCT06975098
The goal of this clinical intervention study is to enhance life balance in community-dwelling individuals with depression. The main question it aims to answer is: Can an individualized life balance intervention, combining group sessions and telephone support, effectively improve life balance, time management, functional roles, quality of life, and reduce depression severity in individuals with depression? Participants will: Complete baseline assessments including demographics, illness-related information, and the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). Participate in four weekly, two-hour group sessions tailored to their individual needs identified through the COPM assessment. Receive telephone support 1-3 days before each group session. Complete post-intervention assessments immediately after the four-week program and again one month later.
NCT07051200
The goal of this pilot study is to test the effectiveness of a novel intervention for young adults (ages 18-27) with mental health conditions who have been released from an acute care psychiatric facility. The intervention aims to reduce suicidality, depression, anxiety, re-hospitalization, and improve mental health recovery by using outpatient services. The current standard of care (SOC) for these patients at discharge includes a discharge plan with a list of their medications, anticipated outpatient appointments, and information on when and where to find community resources. The intervention being tested involves the implementation of a mental health recovery education and support program, involving one-on-one and small group meetings led by Peer Support Specialists (PSS) and Recovery Community Organizations (RCO). Participants will be assigned to either Cohort A or B for 8 weeks. Cohort A will be the intervention group with PSS and RCOs. * Weeks 1-4: One-on-one meetings with PSS for education and support. Assessments will be completed at weeks 2 and 4. * Weeks 5 and 7: One-on-one meetings with PSS for education and support. * Week 6 and 8: Group meetings with PSS and other participants from RCOs. Assessments will be completed during these weeks. Cohort B will be the SOC group with no PSS or RCOs. * Weeks 1-4: Weekly check in phone calls with a member of the research team. Assessments will be completed at weeks 2 and 4. * Weeks 5-8: Check in phone calls with a member of the research team every other week. Assessments will be completed at weeks 6 and 8. Data collected from participant assessments, adherence to medication, and re-admittance to a psychiatric facility will be used to compare the intervention to the SOC.
NCT06799078
Patients from black, indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) communities are reported to have lower rates of antidepressant adherence and response. The investigators have a limited understanding of why this disparity exists. The majority of outpatient psychiatric consultations are one-time assessments that provide treatment recommendations to the primary care provider. It is important to identify whether there are racial differences in accessing and adhering to recommended treatment plans to provide more equitable care. To the investigators' knowledge, there are no studies that examined racial differences in access and barriers to receiving antidepressant treatment after a one-time psychiatric assessment. This study focuses on patients who were diagnosed with major depressive disorder during a psychiatric consultation 3 months prior. We are examining whether there are racial differences in being a) recommended an antidepressant, b) started/switched to a recommended antidepressant, c) treated at a therapeutic dosage, d) adherence to treatment, and e) whether sociodemographic factors, discrimination in medical settings, and patient perception of depression and antidepressant treatment moderate these differences. This study will inform the development of treatment strategies that minimize racial disparities in the treatment of depression.
NCT06968624
This clinical trial examines the antidepressant efficacy and safety of a single low-dose intravenous esketamine combined with oral duloxetine in patients with postherpetic neuralgia and depression (duration more than 1 month). In this prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel study, eligible patients were randomized into two groups: one received esketamine plus duloxetine, and the other got placebo plus duloxetine. Both groups underwent standard pain management and neuro modulation therapy. The primary outcome was the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale - Depression( HADS-D)score at 2 weeks post - infusion, with various secondary outcomes assessed over multiple time points. Data were collected through in-person interviews and telephone follow-ups.
NCT06968013
This randomized controlled trial aims to explore the therapeutic effects of Well-Being Therapy (WBT) on patients with Chronic Insomnia accompanied by depressive symptoms.
NCT06849154
The REAL™ (Read Emotions and Learn to Regulate) module is a school-based social-emotional learning (SEL) intervention designed for early adolescents in Malaysia. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the REAL™ intervention in improving emotional regulation skills and reducing depression and anxiety symptoms among secondary school students. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted from February to November 2023, involving 226 students aged 13-14 years from four secondary schools in Selangor, Malaysia. The intervention integrates virtual reality (VR) components to enhance engagement and ensure that SEL skills are relatable within the students' sociocultural context. Participants were assessed at four time points (baseline, immediate post-test, three-month follow-up, and six-month follow-up) using validated psychological measures, including the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). The results showed that students in the intervention group demonstrated significant improvements in emotional regulation and reductions in depression and anxiety scores compared to the control group, with sustained benefits over time. This study highlights the feasibility of implementing SEL programs in Malaysian schools and supports the integration of culturally adapted, VR-enhanced interventions to promote adolescent mental health.

NCT06664138
The goal of this clinical trial is to find if patients would awaken quickly after electroconvulsive treatment when remimazolam is used compared to etomidate. It will also learn about the efficacy of remimazolam. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will using remimazolam as an induction agent for ECT provide sufficient therapeutic effects? Additionally, when compared to etomidate, will remimazolam lead to a quicker return of spontaneous respiration and faster eye opening after the seizure? Participants will: Remimazolam and etomidate will be used in a random order, each administered once for the induction of anesthesia in ECT. Blood pressure, heart rate, and other vital signs will be monitored during the treatment, and the duration of the seizure as well as the shock energy used to induce the seizure will be recorded.
