Use of a Digitally Enabled App With Clinical Team Interface in the Management of Depression

Major Depressive Disorder

This study is being conducted to understand the use of a mobile app (titled Pathway) to help patients track depression symptoms, medications, side effects, and goals in addition to the usual care with their doctor. Investigators will compare the effect of the app over 6 months and examine whether the app can increase engagement between patients and their doctor and help in the management of illnesses as patients start a new treatment for depression. The investigators hope that using an app to facilitate management of depression symptoms, medication use, and side effects will help patients and their providers understand their response to medications and lead to better response and improvements in depression.

Sea Swimming for Treatment of Depression and Anxiety

DepressionAnxiety

There is a developing evidence to suggest that open cold water swimming could have an impact on depression and anxiety: anecdotal reports of benefits to mental wellbeing as a result of regular open water bathing research suggesting exercise is as effective as medication and talking therapies in the treatment of depression ecotherapy (offering therapeutic intervention in nature) has a developing evidence base cold water may have an impact on the inflammatory system which has been linked to depression The aim of this study is to recruit 10 people with mild to moderately severe depression to a sea swimming course, alongside their standard care. The course would involve two groups of 5, participating in eight sea sessions under the guidance and supervision of swim instructors and lifeguards. The primary aim of the course is to determine the recruitment rate and compliance with the course. The secondary aims of the course are to determine the impact on mental health through questionnaires for depression (PHQ9), anxiety (GAD7), functioning in daily life (WSAS). The inflammatory marker - C- reactive protein (CRP), will also be measured to monitor the inflammatory process in relation to psychological outcomes and the timeline of the course. Participants will need to commit to two sessions a week. It is anticipated that participants will need to commit around 2 hours of their time to the study each week. It would take around ten months from recruitment to follow-up. Participants would be able to leave the study at any time. Participants would engage in routine care alongside the course. Sea swimming can be a dangerous activity but participants would be well supported, in small groups and would only sea swim in safe conditions. Participants will be asked to report any medical conditions to ensure they could not be adversely effected.

Imaging Biomarkers for TMS Treatment of Depression

Depression

The purpose of this research is to learn more about how rTMS works to reduce the symptoms of depression. This information can be used to improve the effectiveness of the treatment. The study will use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to examine changes in brain function after treatment with rTMS. fMRI is a safe and painless technique that allows investigators to observe the brain "at work." The investigators will use fMRI to see what regions of the brain become active when you perform a concentration task and how that activation is changed after rTMS.

Trial of the Youth Readiness Intervention

Anxiety Disorder/Anxiety StateDepressive Disorder/Psychology5 more

The research will first examine data obtained from YRI participants to investigate effects of the group sessions on psychosocial and functioning outcomes in youth. In pursuit of this aim, this research will investigate the following hypothesis: Participation in the Youth Readiness Intervention will reduce symptoms of internalizing, externalizing, trauma-related symptoms, and improve prosocial skills and functioning among war-affected 15-24 year olds in Sierra Leone. The research also intends to examine whether youth enrolled in a psychosocial "Youth Readiness Intervention" (YRI) and a complementary education program fare better than an education-only control group, a psychosocial-only control group, and a waitlist control group. In pursuit of this second aim, this research will investigate the following hypothesis: A combined psychosocial-education program is an effective paradigm for improving psychosocial, functional, educational, and economic self-sufficiency outcomes among war-affected youth.

PET Imaging of mGLuR5 With Drug Challenge

Major Depressive DisorderPost-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

This study is designed to look at that involvement of a process in the brain called the glutamate system in depression. Participants will undergo a screening session, up to two functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) scans, and up to three Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans, as well as cognitive testing at each scan session. For one of the PET scans, a drug (either ketamine or n-acetyl cysteine) will be administered. Hypothesis 1: The investigators hypothesize administration of ketamine or n-acetylcysteine (NAC) will lead to a decrease in mGluR5. Hypothesis 2: The investigators hypothesize an improvement in memory and attentional skills after drug challenge. Hypothesis 3: The investigators hypothesize an increase in mGluR5 availability and change in MRI measures post drug challenge as compared to baseline, signifying synaptogenesis. Hypothesis 4: We expect there should not be a significant difference in reduction in mGluR5 availability due to differences in ABP688 radiotracer infusion.

Uridine Adolescent Bipolar Depression Randomized Controlled Trial

Bipolar DisorderBipolar Depression1 more

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the investigational drug uridine as a treatment for depressed adolescents with bipolar disorder (i.e. "bipolar depression"). Participants initially randomized to placebo who complete the 6-week protocol will be offered 6 months of open-label uridine treatment and follow-up. Participants initially randomized to uridine will be offered the open-label treatment as well.
