Effect of sleep quality on repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation outcomes in depression
Together, our results suggest that while baseline insomnia is not associated with TMS effectiveness, treating insomnia may affect the trajectory of TMS therapy. Future prospective studies are needed to examine the effect of insomnia treatment alongside TMS for depression
Chronic caffeine consumption curbs rTMS-induced plasticity
These preliminary data highlight a need to directly test the effects of caffeine in prospective well-powered studies, because in theory, they suggest that chronic caffeine use could limit learning or plasticity, including rTMS effectiveness
Synapses, predictions, and prediction errors
These findings explain how interoceptive cortices could be stuck in limited affective states with high prediction error. Connecting ketamine and psilocybin's proposed mechanism of action to depression pathophysiology, the growth of new synapses would allow representing more futuristic predictions with higher confidence. To our knowledge, this is the first study to use the TM model to connect changes happening at synaptic levels to the Bayesian fo…
Mechanical Affective Touch Therapy for Anxiety Disorders
Open-label data suggest MATT is a promising non-invasive therapeutic approach to anxiety disorders that warrants further development
Psychedelics and Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy
Objective: The authors provide an evidenced-based summary of the literature on the clinical application of psychedelic drugs in psychiatric disorders. Methods: Searches of PubMed and PsycINFO via Ovid were conducted for articles in English, in peer-reviewed journals, reporting on “psilocybin,” “lysergic acid diethylamide,” “LSD,” “ayahuasca,” “3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine,” and “MDMA,” in human subjects, published between 2007 and July 1, 20…
Neuroimaging Correlates of Suicidality in Decision-Making Circuits in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
In depression, brain and behavioral correlates of decision-making differ between individuals with and without suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Though promising, it remains unknown if these potential biomarkers of suicidality will generalize to other high-risk clinical populations. To preliminarily assess whether brain structure or function tracked suicidality in individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), we measured resting-state func…
Pilot Testing of Peak Alpha Frequency Stability During Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Over half of those diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have comorbid major depressive disorder (MDD), and rates are even higher among military veterans. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) may be a safe and efficacious treatment for PTSD, both with and without comorbid MDD. Still, the mechanism of action of TMS is not fully understood, and it remains unclear which stimulation techniques (e.g., target regions, pulse strength/f…
Mechanisms of Perceived Treatment Assignment and Subsequent Expectancy Effects in a Double Blind Placebo Controlled RCT of Major Depression
Objective: It has been suggested that patients' perception of treatment assignment might serve to bias results of double blind randomized controlled trials (RCT). Most previous evidence on the effects of patients' perceptions and the mechanisms influencing these perceptions relies on cross-sectional associations. This re-analysis of a double blind, placebo controlled RCT of pharmacological treatment of major depression set out to gather longitudi…
Psychosocial and Physiological Correlates of Male Gender Role Stress among Employed Adults
Previous research has identified male gender role stress (MGRS) as a construct that leads men, as a function of traditional socialization processes, to appraise certain situations in ways that produce psychosocial and physiological distress. Because the initial research was based on college undergraduates, the current study explored the relationship of MGRS to psychosocial and physiological risk factors for cardiovascular disease among employed a…
Problems of Adjustment Reported by Alcoholics Prior to Leaving a Hospital Treatment Program
After 6 weeks of intensive treatment in a hospital, men alcoholics tested by the Mooney Problem Check List revealed that their most immediate concerns before discharge were in the realms of economic insecurity, poor sex relations, and emotional instability
Alcoholic Personality
The Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire was administered to 266 male alcoholics when they voluntarily entered the 60-day Treatment Program at the Lexington, Kentucky, Veterans Administration Hospital. These alcoholics scored significantly higher than the standardization group on 6 scales and scored significantly lower on 6 other scales. The data support the view that chronic alcoholics are a distinct personality type
