1. A Study of Mood Symptoms in Epilepsy Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to track neuropsychiatric symptoms in patients with epilepsy.

2. A Study to Evaluate Women's Birth Experience and Postpartum Mental Health Outcomes

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to implement a facilitated peer support group for women that have experienced an unexpected birth process in the last 12 months. 

3. Adolescent Biomarker Guided rTMS

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to gather information regarding the use of rTMS as a treatment for depression in adolescents with Major Depressive Disorder. The investigators also hope to learn if measures of brain activity (cortical excitability and inhibition) collected with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can be used to identify which patients will benefit from certain types of rTMS treatment. 

4. A Study to Research Epilepsy in Adolescent Clinical Transitions

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary aims of this study are to 1) evaluate the acceptability of implementing a novel transition program for adolescents with epilepsy; 2) evaluate the needs of patients and their families as they prepare for transition from pediatric to adult care; and 3) improve transition readiness and outcomes in youths with epilepsy.

5. A Study of Factors That Predispose, Promote, and Perpetuate Post-Traumatic Dizziness

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to investigate whether recent, groundbreaking discoveries about key pathophysiologic processes that drive chronic dizziness in patients without traumatic brain injury (TBI9,10) are applicable to patients with post-mTBI vestibular disability. We expect the results of this project to have practical clinical and research applications, providing novel data for two future steps:

6. A Study to Determine Whether Ongoing Assessment Aids Treatment

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purposes of this study are to summarize clinician evaluations of the NNDC battery in the single clinic where the adult battery is currently being administered to adolescents, to determine patient and clinician level of interest in using the NNDC battery in clinics where the adult battery is not currently being administered to adolescent patients (n=14), to measure change in evaluation 3 months post-implementation for any sites that begin administering the NNDC battery to adolescents, and to generate potential new Child and Adolescent Mood Disorders Interest Group (CAMDIG) research protocols for future consideration.

7. Effects of Social Media Use on Self-esteem, Depressive Symptoms, Psychiatric Morbidity, and Physiological Markers of Stress in Adolescent Psychiatric Patients and Healthy Controls

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to contribute to our understanding of the relationships between social media use in adolescents and psychological development, psychiatric comorbidity, and physiological markers of stress. 

8. Pharmacogenomics and Pharmacometabolomics of Acamprosate Treatment Outcome

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to identify genetic and metabolomic biomarkers associated with acamprosate response in previously collected samples.

9. A Study to Evaluate a Primary Care-Based Intervention for Adolescent Restrictive Eating Disorders

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, usability, and preliminary outcomes of a treatment protocol (FBT-PC) for PCP management of adolescent restrictive eating disorders.
