Sleeping for Two: RCT of CBT-Insomnia in Pregnancy

InsomniaSleep Disturbance

Cognitive-behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) has been shown to be an effective treatment for insomnia in multiple populations, including women during pregnancy and postpartum. Online CBT-I has also been shown to be effective and comparable to in-person CBT-I, and shows promise as an accessible treatment alternative to in-person CBT-I for pregnant women experiencing insomnia. As the harmful consequences of insomnia or sleep disturbances have been well documented during late pregnancy, this randomized-controlled trial will compare the efficacy of both in-person and online CBT-I on pregnant women with insomnia to a wait-list control group.

Sleep Treatment Outcome Predictors: A Pilot Study (STOP-pilot)

Sleep Problem

Insomnia occurs frequently causing a substantial burden to society (1). Historically, insomnia has been considered as secondary to a handful of other psychiatric disorders, such as depression and anxiety - but it is now clear that this disorder is associated with a wide range of psychiatric conditions and may actually precede and predict their development and severity (e.g. 2). Treating insomnia has been posited to hold the promise of reducing or preventing the development of co-morbid problems - although this possibility needs to be rigorously tested. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for disturbed sleep, specifically insomnia, in adults (3) and is recommended by NICE for the management of long-term sleep problems. This treatment is more accessible than ever before given recent ground-breaking internet initiatives - such as the Sleepio programme (see: https://www.sleepio.com/home/), which was developed by one of the collaborators (Colin Espie) and has yielded encouraging results (4). Despite the importance of CBT for treating disturbed sleep and the finding that it leads to a good outcome for the majority of sufferers, some people fail to respond to this treatment. For example, research cited on the Sleepio website notes that around 70% of those with even very long term sleep difficulties experience long-term improvements from the treatment, meaning that 30% do not (see 4). Understanding more about who does and does not respond holds the promise of improving or tailoring treatments for insomnia. The study proposed here builds on recent work by one of the researchers who has been exploring demographic (5), clinical (e.g. 6) and most uniquely genetic (e.g. 7); and epigenetic (e.g. 8) predictors of psychological treatment response (coining the term Therapygenetics, see, 7). While these predictors are individually only likely to explain a small proportion of the variance of treatment outcome, understanding these multiple risks and their interaction is the best way to consider this issue. The study addressed here is a pilot study, necessary to demonstrate feasibility of utilising a sleep intervention application in an unselected sample of young adults, prior to applying for grant funding to undertake a larger but similar behavioural genetics study in the future. The main aim of this pilot study is to test the feasibility of the study design, by investigating whether unselected participants show an improvement in sleep quality after taking the intervention. Participation and drop out rates as well acceptability of the intervention in a non-clinical population will also be investigated. Research Questions: Does the online CBT intervention improve sleep quality in a non-clinical, unselected sample? How feasible is it to run this study on a non-clinical sample? This will include investigating response rate, participant drop-out, and treatment accessibility. The investigators will also offer perform preliminary investigations into: Does improving sleep quality have implications for associated phenotypes? Specifically the investigators will examine symptoms of anxiety, depression, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), psychosis, and well-being. Which demographic, clinical, genetic, and epigenetic factors predict treatment outcome for sleep problems? Research questions 3) and 4) will be primary aims in the main study, but will constitute secondary aims in the pilot study as there won't be the statistical power to fully address these questions.

Group Therapy for Fibromyalgia:the Effectiveness of Mindfulness -Based VS Cognitive-behavioral Therapy...

FibromyalgiaPTSD3 more

This study was conducted as part of a collaboration between the Maccabi Health Fund and Bar Ilan University. Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain disorder, highly co-morbid with depression, stress, and anxiety. the investigators aim to examine the effect of group cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) among fibromyalgia patients. the investigators will also examine which intervention fits which patient, according to one's individual characteristics, in hope that this would enable Maccabi to offer personalized treatment. Furthermore, the investigators wish to identify the underlying cognitive and psychopathological mechanisms (measured during treatment) by which each intervention works.

The Effects of Milnacipran on Sleep Disturbance in Fibromyalgia

Sleep DisordersFibromyalgia1 more

Fibromyalgia is a condition of chronic widespread pain, sleep disturbance and fatigue. Most of the patients with fibromyalgia complain of either non-restorative sleep or complaints of disturbed sleep due to pain. The study aimed at examining the effects of milnacipran on sleep disturbance in patients with fibromyalgia. The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, two way crossover polysomnography (PSG) study to explore the effects of milnacipran on sleep disturbance. Patients received either milnacipran 50 mg twice a day (BID) or matching placebo.
