rTMS for the Treatment of Affective Symptoms in Patients Suffering From Dementia

Behavioral and Psychiatric Symptoms of Dementia

This is a monocentric prospective, randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled study. It is designed to evaluate the superiority of the rTMS over sham treatment of depressive symptoms in the context of dementia. It is aimed at a population ≥ 65 years old, with affective BPSD. We wish to recruit 44 participants, with an estimated rate of potential drop out of 20%. Patients will be randomly assigned to the sham or rTMS group. The sham stimulation reproduces the procedure in all the steps, has the same duration and differs exclusively by the device setting. After inclusion, both groups will receive 15 sessions distributed over 5 days a week for 3 weeks

Unobtrusive Monitoring of Affective Symptoms and Cognition Using Keyboard Dynamics (UnMASCK)

Mood DisordersMajor Depressive Disorder4 more

Mood disorders are associated with significant financial and health costs for the United States, partially due to cognitive problems in these patients that can worsen disease course and impair treatment response. This study proposes to use smartphone-based technology to monitor cognitive problems in patients with mood disorders by linking brain network changes with predicted worsening of mood symptoms. The proposed study will provide evidence for using smartphone-based passive sensing as a cost-effective way to predict illness course and treatment response.

Role of CBD in Improving Alexithymia

AlexithymiaHIV

Given the treatments that are available today for HIV disease, people living with HIV (PLWH) can generally expect good medical outcomes. However, HIV is still a chronic disease and there are remaining barriers to achieving ideal health status and quality of life. One barrier may be a condition that is common among PLWH, called alexithymia, which can make it difficult for a person to name and describe the emotions that they are feeling. As a result, it is difficult to resolve negative emotional states, which can then lead to worse outcomes over time due to ongoing stress and related problems such as inflammation. In this study we will try to find out whether taking cannabidiol (CBD) helps PLWH who have alexithymia to resolve those negative emotional states, which may then reduce inflammation in the body as a result. CBD may work by enhancing the body's own chemical messengers that can help to regulate emotions and encourage emotional benefits. We will compare a group of people who take CBD for 4 weeks to those who take a placebo, which is a substance that will closely resemble the CBD but will not contain any active drug. Study participants and the researchers who are working directly with the participants will not be able to tell which is the CBD and which is the placebo. We will evaluate participants before and after the 4-week study period. We will also collect samples, such as blood, so that we can measure inflammation. We will compare the two groups to see if those who took CBD have lower alexithymia and lower inflammation compared to those who took the placebo. The potential benefit of this study is that CBD may be an effective treatment for alexithymia in PLWH, which may then improve both their emotional and physical health outcomes. This can help to address a remaining barrier to good medical outcomes for PLWH.
