Active clinical trials for "Depressive Disorder"

It is not clear whether depresssion can predispose, or precipitate stroke recurrence in patients with stroke. We sought the relationship of post stroke depression with stroke recurrence.

Primary Objective: Evaluate the user experience with the Stella (TM) app for the management of Postpartum Depression in an observed population for 8 calendar weeks.

The purposes of this study are to: test among adolescent the utility of brief video-based interventions to reduce stigma-related attitudes and increase help-seeking intentions toward depression; examine the role of race (Black vs other) as an independent factor in the primary outcome.

The mobiletype program is a mental health assessment and monitoring tool that runs on mobile phones. The program assesses the general mental health of young people in real-time and transmits this data to a website to be reviewed by their general practitioner (GP) in consultation with their patient. The website consists of individualised feedback reports for each participant, and graphical displays of the monitoring data. The primary aims of the current project are to examine: (1) whether the process of self-monitoring via the mobiletype program increases young people's awareness of their mood and reduces depressive symptoms and (2) whether emotional self-awareness mediates the relationship between self-monitoring and depressive symptoms.

Maternal depression disproportionately affects low-income and minority women, and has profound negative impacts on their children. The investigators are conducting a randomized trial of a systems approach to identify mothers at risk for depression in Head Start - a federally funded early learning program for children of low-income families - and to provide an on-site intervention to prevent or alleviate depressive symptoms; improve functioning; and, where appropriate, proactively link mothers to more definitive mental health services.

This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multicenter study. A total of 128 subjects will be randomly assigned to a test group or placebo group in a 1:1 ratio. Subjects will receive vortioxetine (or placebo) and acamprosate for 6 weeks according to the treatment group. Four visits will be made (weeks 0, 2, 4, 8), and on visit 2-4 (weeks 2, 4, 8) compliance, depression symptoms, and alcohol craving will be assessed.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether cognitive function evaluation (sustained attention, executive functions, working memory) during acute post-stroke is predictive of a 3 months post-stroke depression.

Despite a possible psychomotor retardation during a depressive episode, standardized psychomotor assessment is rare. So, other possible psychomotor disorders or neurological "soft signs" are not known in depression. The investigator propose in this study to explore the psychomotor characteristics of patients with a major depressive disorder from the realization of a psychomotor assessment in comparison with adult without depressive disorder (control). It will be specifically assess muscle tone, gross motor skills, praxis, body schema and the body image and the perceptions.

The purpose of the Preconception and Pregnancy Obesity Treatment and Prevention Among Women with A History of Depression preliminary study is to provide a lifestyle intervention for women with a history of depression who are trying to conceive or are pregnant in order to prevent excessive pre-pregnancy weights, avoid excessive gestational weight gain, and to improve other markers of metabolic health. The treatment program consists of 10 private sessions with a trained clinician at no cost to participants.

In diabetes, web programs have been designed that have integrated cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with diabetes education, obtaining positive results in the mood of the patient. In Spain, no similar approach has been performed in people with diabetes and depression. However, the need to provide professionals with adequate tools to help people with this problem is justified. The main objective of this project is to apply a telematic program for the treatment of specific depression for people with type 1 diabetes designed by our research team in a sample of patients with type 1 diabetes and mild-moderate depressive symptomatology of the province of Malaga. To do this, the sample will be divided into two groups: treatment group (TG) and control group (CG). The design of the study is quasi-experimental, longitudinal randomized pre-post with control group. The treatment group (TG) will receive the web treatment, which consists of 9 weekly sessions, while the control group (CG) will be evaluated in the same phases as the TG. For ethical reasons, the CG will receive the web treatment once the TG intervention has been completed. There will be a follow-up at 3, 6 and 12 months.
