Active clinical trials for "Depressive Disorder"

This is a randomized controlled trial comparing two groups: 1) Enhanced usual care and 2) Enhanced usual care plus group psychological intervention. In both groups a "stepped care" approach was used to the management of anxiety and depression among women seen in primary care.

The purpose of this trial is identify biomarkers of response to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in individuals with first episode or treatment resistant depression. These biomarkers include simultaneous TMS-fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging), a blood smear, cognitive and behavioural assessments, questionnaires, and neurophysiology.

The purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized pilot trial in a sample of 60 women who meet criteria for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) 1-18 months after a perinatal loss to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed recruitment methods and research design, of the therapist training methods, and of delivering the adapted Interpersonal Psychotherapy group treatment. The investigators would like to examine preliminary evidence for the following hypotheses: Perinatal-loss specific IPT-G will be more acceptable to women who experience MDD following perinatal loss than will Coping with Depression (CWD). Perinatal-loss specific IPT-G will result in reduced time to remission from MDD and reduced depressive symptoms relative to CWD. Perinatal-loss specific IPT-G will result in increased social support and social functioning, reduced couple distress, and reduced grief relative to CWD.

To elucidate the disease pathway of perinatal depression by identifying genetic variants which could play a role in predisposing to the condition and/or lead to better understanding of the pathogenesis of the condition. This is achieved by investigating for associations between oestrogen receptor genetic variants and perinatal depression.

Suicide is a significant cause of death in Korea. According to the report compiled by the Korea National Statistical Office, 24.8 victims of every 100,000 in 2007 (Korea National Statistical Office, 2008), which is higher compared with 10.1 in the United States, 6.0 in the United Kingdom, and 19.1 in Japan (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, 2008). Especially, suicide rate is incredibly higher in elderly. Most persons who commit suicide have a diagnosed psychiatric disorder. Among them, 60% had Depression when they committed suicide. Therefore, this study aimed the impact of a care management intervention on depression treatment and reducing suicidal ideation in elderly patients with depression.
