Cannabinoids as a Treatment for Insomnia in Major Depression

InsomniaDepressive Disorder4 more

This single-site study is a pilot, three-armed, double-blinded, placebo-controlled randomized controlled trial (RCT) that will determine the feasibility of a definitive RCT investigating the use of cannabis oil as a treatment for insomnia in individuals with MDD. The study will also determine whether standard THC with higher CBD vs lower CBD has a differential impact on insomnia. The study will also analyze other important objective parameters of sleep including total sleep time and sleep efficiency from actigraphy data. Polysomnography data will also be analyzed. In addition, standardized, validated instruments will be used to collect data on severity of depressive symptoms, cognitive functioning biological rhythm disruption, daytime sleepiness, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), healthcare resource utilization, work productivity and activity impairment, as well as other side effects, in order to better understand the potential impact of the use of cannabis oil on these important health outcomes.

Melatonin Adolescent Research Study

Sleep Disorders in Children

The present study will use a within-person, randomized cross-over experimental design to test the effects of exogenous melatonin supplementation on the sleep and daytime functioning of typically developing adolescents with short or disrupted sleep of behavioral origins (i.e., difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or premature waking resulting in short or disrupted sleep not attributed to an organic sleep condition).

Do Endotypes Predict Response and Sequelae in OSA Patients

Obstructive Sleep ApneaSleep Apnea4 more

This study will investigate why some people have Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and how the underlying cause may relate to OSA manifestations (including sleepiness and high blood pressure) and response to different therapeutic approaches (ie CPAP, eszopiclone, and supplemental oxygen). Understanding why someone has OSA could affect how best to treat that individual, but may also have an impact on what problems the disease might cause.

Bright Light Intervention to Reduce Students' Stress

Psychological StressPhysiological Stress2 more

Increased stress levels are a significant problem for many students and represent a risk factor for impaired mental and physical health as well as academic performance. Stress levels are particularly high during the preparation phase for major exams. There is good evidence that light therapy is an effective treatment option to improve mood in affective disorders. The present study aims at investigating the psychophysiological effects of a 3-week morning bright light exposure in reducing stress and stress-related problems in students preparing for major exams.

Effect of Melatonin on Sleep Patterns of Resident Trainees During Night Float Shift

Sleep DisordersCircadian Rhythm

Anesthesiology residency requires extended and overnight shifts, which may negatively impact the quantity and quality of sleep. Previous studies have investigated the effect of night float shift work on anesthesiology resident sleep and performance and demonstrated that total sleep quantity and time spent in deep and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep were significantly reduced during night float and did not return to baseline after 3 nights of recovery. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland, which regulates the circadian rhythm that governs sleep. Exogenous melatonin may be used as a sleep aid and is available over the counter in the United States. Melatonin is effective in realigning the circadian rhythm disorder caused by night shift work and increasing sleep duration; however, melatonin's effect on improving sleep in resident trainees has not been investigated. The investigators propose a prospective double-blinded randomized control trial to investigate the effect of melatonin on sleep quantity and quality in resident physicians assigned to a night float system.

Stepping Together for Children After Trauma, Norway

PTSDSleep Disorder2 more

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to learn about how to effectively help children (aged 7-12) who have developed moderate symptoms of posttraumatic stress after exposure to trauma, and prevent development of more severe problems. The main research questions are: Will the parent-led, therapist assisted treatment "Stepping Together for Children after Trauma" (ST-CT) be more effective, compared to usual care, in reducing symptoms of posttraumatic stress, depression and sleep disorders, and in improving daily functioning for children and their parents after trauma? Is ST-CT implemented to the municipal first-line services cost-effective? Will ST-CT prevent use of health care services and prescribed drugs in the long term? The children and their non-offending caregivers will be randomized to receive treatment with ST-CT or usual care, and symptoms and general functioning will be assessed at five time-points.

Neuromodulation of Sleep Architecture by STN-DBS in Parkinsonian Patients

Parkinson DiseaseSleep Disorder

Sleep disorder is one of the most burdensome non-motor symptoms in Parkinsonian patients. Typical manifestations include RBD, decreased sleep efficiency, decreased slow wave sleep, daytime sleepiness, increased sleep latency and wakefulness during sleep. Subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been reported to improve sleep dysfunction in several studies, mostly due to its improvement in motor dysfunction. However, there are limited research about specific STN-DBS stimulation pattern for sleep architecture regulation, and whether suboptimal parameter combinations for motor has potential benefits for sleep improvement has not been studied. Here we use different parameter combination in STN-DBS, especially by changing stimulation contact and frequency, to explore the specific stimulation pattern for normalizing sleep architecture and increasing slow wave sleep.
