Active clinical trials for "Depressive Disorder"

This is a multicenter, randomized trial aims to reveal the efficacy and safety of Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) individualized therapy based on the 'emotional loop destabilization' mechanism of PSD .One hundred and twenty participants will be recruited from three centers and randomized with a 1:1 ratio to receive "Personalized" rTMS treatment or traditional rTMS treatment in addition to routine antidepressant treatments.The data of neuropsychological tests and MRI will be collected at 0, 2，4 and 8 weeks after the commencement of the treatment.

Shu gan yi yang capsule is made of traditional Chinese medicine Guizhou Yi Bai pharmaceutical Limited by Share Ltd, for liver and kidney deficiency and liver and kidney deficiency and blood stasis caused by functional impotence and mild arterial insufficiency in impotence, impotence, flaccid penis not hard or lift and not firm, chest deep sigh, chest fullness, soreness and weakness of waist and knees, pale tongue or petechiae, pulse string or string. The choice of depression associated with erectile dysfunction patients, and investigate its effect.In this study, patients with depression and erectile dysfunction were selected and the efficacy was investigated

Randomized clinical trial that aims to increase physical activity levels in people with depression and to evaluate if the increase on PA levels has impact on clinical and biological measures.

This randomized trial with a crossover design will examine the efficacy of rTMS targeting the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex as a treatment for medication-resistant major depression in patients meeting diagnostic criteria for borderline personality disorder.

Major depressive disorder is the number one cause of disability worldwide. Evidence regarding the effectiveness of various treatments for patients with severe depression is still lacking. Although many patients achieve treatment response, only a minority of patients achieve full remission and even fewer sustain it. In fact, within one month 10% will be re-hospitalized and the rate climbs to 30% within a year. Further, remission from depressive symptoms is a surprisingly poor predictor of recovery of community functioning following discharge. It is clear that the traditional focus on diagnostic symptoms is insufficient for promoting a full return to everyday functioning. The present aim is to examine the efficacy and effectiveness of treating neurocognition, a symptom that explains persistent deficits in community functioning for those with depression. The study design that maps on to the contemporary clinical setting, in order to reflect the changing landscape of inpatient and community treatment.

Depression with ongoing insomnia is a common clinical presentation with patients. Clinical data suggests that patients with insomnia that receive concomitant treatment with a sleep aid experience a more robust antidepressant response along with a quicker response. The purpose of this clinical study is to compare the effectiveness of the FDA-approved insomnia medication suvorexant, also known as Belsomra®, as add-on treatment to an antidepressant to that of placebo plus antidepressant treatment in patients with depression and residual or ongoing insomnia.

This is a phase II, placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blinded clinical trial. Study objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of mirtazapine in advanced NSCLC patients with malignant tumor related depression. Study hypothesis is that advanced NSCLC diagnosed with depression undertaking palliative chemotherapy with mirtazapine treatment for 8 weeks will have remarkable improvement in depression compared to baseline. Eligible advanced NSCLC Patients with PHQ-9 score ≥ 8, and undertaking palliative chemotherapy will be enrolled into this study. patients will be stratified (gender, age, Numerical Rating Scale score for cancer pain 0-3/4-6/7-10) randomized (1:1) into mirtazapine or placebo treatment. Patients in mirtazapine arm will be orally administered with mirtazapine 15mg, QD, consecutive medication for 8 weeks; along with palliative chemotherapy regimen decided by investigators. Patients in placebo arm will be orally administered with placebo 15mg, QD, consecutive medication for 8 weeks; along with palliative chemotherapy regimen decided by investigators. During the treatment, Patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-17) and European Organization for Research on Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) quality of life questionnaire-C30 (QLQ-C30) questionnaires will be collected at baseline, 3 weeks (d22) and 8 weeks (d57), or treatment discontinuation date due to depression deteriorated or suicidal tendency and behavior. Follow-up will last up to 4 weeks after treatment end with depression assessment (questionnaires every 2 weeks). Study endpoints: primary endpoint is the anti-depression efficacy (response rate). Response defined as the PHQ-9 or HAMD-17 questionnaire score decrease ≥ 50% compared with baseline level.

Major Depressive Disorder is one of the most common mental diseases,which increases health-care costs and the financial burden to families and societies. Considering its complex clinical symptoms and diversity of comorbidity, depressive disorder's recognition，diagnosis，and antihistone are based on symptomatology,which is lack of multidimensional diagnosis technique based on clinical pathological characteristics,as well as lack of individualized therapy strategy based on quantified evaluation. Besides, other physical diseases，such as nervous system diseases, cardiovascular diseases，endocrine diseases, have the high comorbidity of depressive disorder. However，there is no precise diagnosis technique or standardized therapy strategy. With all those taken into consideration,our study is aimed to adopt E-mental health and m-Health to explore multi-dimensional diagnosis, individualized therapy and management technique based on molecular biology,nerve electrophysiology，and neuroimaging technology etc.

To investigate the impact of a structured eight week exercise intervention as an add-on therapy in treating Major Depressive Disorder. Using behavioural techniques and neuroimaging to measure changes in brain function following an exercise intervention in people with clinical depression. By correlating changes in the hippocampus with changes in HPA axis hormones, inflammatory cytokines and growth factors it is possible to determine which of the biochemical markers is most predictive of improved neural function.

Non emergent scheduled cesarean sections will be consented to participate in this study of patients who have screened negative for obstructive sleep apnea and who are also BMI>/= 35 to have capnography monitoring postoperatively. The capnography and pulse oximetry will be initiated in the post anesthesia care unit and be worn for 12-24 hours after delivery. Data will be retrieved after that time period in a deidentified fashion. Medication usage will be reviewed as well as the standard of care information from the duramorph monitoring will be retrieved.
