The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KarXT for treatment of Schizophrenia in adolescents.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a non-invasive device called transauricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) is safe, practical, and potentially helpful for patients in the hospital who develop delirium. Delirium is a state of confusion that often happens to people in the hospital who are sick or hurt. It can cause agitation, trouble paying attention and difficulty understanding what is happening. Delirium may slow overall recovery. This study will focus on feasibility and safety. Researchers want to learn whether taVNS can be given safely to critically-ill patients, whether patients and staff can tolerate the treatments, and whether the device produces measurable changes in brain activity and brain oxygen levels. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Is it possible to deliver taVNS safely and consistently to patients in the ICU who have delirium? * Do patients tolerate the device without significant side effects or complications? * Does taVNS cause short-term changes in brain signals and oxygen levels that may suggest effects on brain function? This is an early feasibility study and there is no randomization or placebo group. All patients enrolled will receive taVNS in addition to their usual hospital care for delirium. What participants will do: * Be identified by their hospital care team and have a confirmed diagnosis of delirium. * Provide consent (or have a legally authorized representative provide consent if the patient cannot.) * Undergo brief assessments of thinking and attention (for example, the CAM-ICU test.) * Receive taVNS treatment using a small clip electrode placed on the ear. * The device sends gentle electrical pulses to the nerve in the ear. * Each session lasts about 30 minutes, given twice per day (morning and evening, with at least 6 hours between sessions). * Treatment can continue for up to 7 days while the patient is in the ICU. * Be monitored during and after each session. The study team will check vital signs, examine the ear for irritation, and ask about any discomfort. * On the first day, researchers will also record brain signals (EEG) and brain oxygen levels before and during stimulation using FDA-approved hospital monitoring devices. Possible risks and discomforts: * Mild side effects are possible, such as tingling, a tickling or pricking feeling in the ear, or temporary skin redness where the clip is placed. * Serious side effects are not expected, but all patients will be closely monitored during and after each session to ensure safety. Possible benefits: • Patients may or may not experience personal benefit. The main benefit is helping researchers learn whether this treatment approach is safe and practical. In the future, taVNS could potentially become a new tool to help treat or prevent delirium in hospitalized patients. Study size and duration: * The study will enroll a limited number of ICU patients with delirium at Stony Brook University Hospital. * Patients may take part for up to 7 days while hospitalized. Who can join: * Right-handed, adult patients in the ICU who are diagnosed with delirium. * People with certain medical conditions (such as brain bleeds, new strokes, pacemakers or other contraindications) may not be able to participate, for safety reasons.

Childhood anxiety disorders (CAD) are common and impairing. Family based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is efficacious in treating CAD. Yet, many children do not receive care due to barriers such as limited provider availably, high treatment costs, and constrained family resources (e.g., time). To combat these barriers, other treatment methods have been developed. The stepped care treatment models maximize resources by providing low-intensity, low-cost interventions as a first time treatment, while stepping up care for those needing more intensive treatment. Specifically, a stepped care model for CAD that begins with a parent-focus intervention has great promise to deliver efficacious and cost-effective treatment without having to engage the child. While stepped care approaches show promise in treating CAD with comparable efficacy to standard CBT, there remains a large research-to-practice gap. The stepped care model for CAD that begins with a parent-focused intervention has yet been explored, and very little is known about intervention mediators that explain mechanisms of change. This research is being done to improve the reach and quality of services using a stepped care model, offering an affordable and practical solution to the widespread gap in youth mental health care.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the effect of KarXT on voiding dynamics and urological safety in participants with DSM-5 schizophrenia.

People with bipolar disorder (BD) are at high risk of relapse following hospital discharge, partly due to a lack of BD-specific expertise and resources within community services required for comprehensive treatment. Although clinical guidelines recommend combining medication and psychosocial support, and research shows that early intervention is associated with improved outcomes, no structured care programs currently exist for individuals in the early stages of BD, contributing to chronic illness progression and preventable hospitalizations. This open-label pilot trial will assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of a structured care pathway to support the transition from hospital to community care. The intervention includes group-based psychoeducation, individual peer support, and personalized support for community healthcare providers to improve illness insight, treatment adherence, and symptom management.

The central hypothesis is this: Brain circuits most relevant to cannabis use in schizophrenia are distinct from pathways identified in healthy controls who use cannabis. This study seeks to provide evidence that targeted stimulation of the DMN leads to both altered network activity and a concomitant behavioral change in cue-induced craving and cognitive performance in individuals with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, while targeted stimulation of the L DLPFC leads to these changes in healthy controls who use cannabis. This study will test a model that integrates brain network pathophysiology and cognition to 1) explain the prevalence of cannabis use in schizophrenia and 2) identify a target for engagement in schizophrenia. This study seeks to establish a neuroscientific framework to guide future treatment-oriented studies aimed at reducing craving and improving cognitive performance in individuals with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. This is a study of the effect of 2 rTMS interventions on functional connectivity and craving in individuals with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder and healthy controls who use cannabis. Aim 1: Target Engagement: Determine if rTMS manipulates functional connectivity of each target (DMN, L DLPFC) (n=100). Aim 2: Clinical Efficacy: Determine if rTMS affects cue-induced craving and if craving change correlates with change in functional connectivity (n=100). As an exploratory analysis, the factors that explain individual variance in rTMS-induced connectivity change will also be explored.

This research study aims to adapt and evaluate the acceptability and effectiveness of Project EMPOWER-OCD for socioeconomically diverse caregivers of patients with OCD. Designed to reduce obstacles (e.g. months long time commitment, high cost, transportation) to treatment that caregivers may be particularly prone to, project EMPOWER-OCD will provide targeted intervention of accommodation - a well-established, potentially modifiable risk factor for child anxiety, OCD, and its related disorders - in a single, self-guided session via an online format.

Participants will complete one online intervention lasting 12 weeks. Each week, they will be asked to complete a 20-30 minute session online. The intervention is targeting improved mood and positive affect in order to support increases in motivation and goal-directed behavior. Before and after the intervention, participants will be asked to complete measures to assess symptoms, mood, and behavior.

This study will test how people with OCD respond to a type of noninvasive brain stimulation, repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS), when it is combined with psychotherapy. Participants will either engage in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) Therapy or supportive therapy (ST) while receiving rTMS. Biobehavioral data from wearable devices and smartphones will be collected to better predict treatment responses. Participants will also undergo repeat resting state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rsfMRI) in order to assess neural predictors and mechanisms of treatment response.

Schizophrenia is a common and severe psychiatric illness characterized by extreme disturbances of cognition and thought, affecting language, perception and sense of self. This study will assess adverse events, change in disease activity, and how oral emraclidine moves through the body in adult participants with schizophrenia Emraclidine is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of schizophrenia. Participants are placed in one of two parts, Part A or Part B, where each group will receive a different treatment. Participants will receive either oral emraclidine or placebo. Approximately 258 participants will be enrolled across roughly 32 sites in the United States. Participants in Part A will be assigned to one of multiple ascending doses of emraclidine or placebo administered orally for 14 days or up to 21 days. Participants in Part B will receive Emraclidine or placebo administered orally for up to 42 days. Participants will be followed for 30 days after the last dose of the study drug. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

In this pilot study a new kind of music therapy will be created and tested to help prevent confusion, called delirium, that can happen in the hospital. This can affect people with brain diseases like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Each of the anticipated 30 participants will have up to five music therapy sessions. The sessions will be made just for them and may include live music, playing instruments, or listening to recorded music. Surveys will be used to learn how easy the therapy is to do in the hospital and what people think about how helpful the sessions may be for future patients.

This study will evaluate the long-term safety of NBI-1117568 in adults with schizophrenia.
