The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if 3 months of taking the dietary supplement MitoQ \[a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant that targets to reduce mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mitoROS)\] works to treat age- and menopause-related reductions in brain artery (cerebrovascular) function in postmenopausal women 60 years of age or older free of clinical disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does MitoQ improve cerebrovascular function in postmenopausal women? If so, does MitoQ improve cerebrovascular function by lowering mitoROS in these arteries? Researchers will compare MitoQ to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if MitoQ can improve cerebrovascular function by lowering mitoROS in arteries involved in brain health and function. Participants will: Take MitoQ (20 mg/day) or a placebo every day for 3 months Visit the research laboratory at baseline and then after 3 months for cerebrovascular testing; there is also a check-in visit at 6 weeks, which is the halfway point Keep track of symptoms and events during their treatment period to report to the study team

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the safety and efficacy of psilocybin assisted Therapy (PAT) in individuals with comorbid Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). The main question it aims to answer is: \- What is the feasibility and safety of administering PAT in adults with MDD-AUD by evaluating recruitment, retention, tolerability, and safety? Researchers will compare the psilocybin (25 mg) and placebo groups to see if there are any significant differences in frequency of dropouts or serious adverse events. Participants will: * be randomized to receive either psilocybin (25 mg) or placebo * visit the site (in-person and remotely) for a total of 14 times to complete study tasks * receive psilocybin-assisted therapy (PAT) at five various timepoints

This study is testing a new way to help with migraine headaches. Researchers want to see if it's safe and doable to stimulate a blood vessel in the head (called the middle meningeal artery) with microcatheters and microwires. This has never been done before for migraines and is an investigational treatment that is not part of standard migraine treatment. This stimulation would happen just before giving the standard lidocaine treatment, which is already routinely used for migraines. The goal is to see whether this new step could help improve headache outcomes. Two FDA-cleared medical devices will be used, the Cadwell Cascade 32 PRO and the Cadwell Guardian IONM System, to perform the stimulation and monitoring. In this study, the Cascade 32 PRO will be used in a way that is not part of its usual approved purpose (this is called "off-label" use) to gently deliver electrical pulses through a microcatheter. The Cadwell Guardian IONM System will be used in its normal, FDAapproved way for continuous monitoring during stimulation.

The current study aims to explore the efficacy of a text message-based Safety Behavior Fading Intervention compared to a PMR control condition.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether combining a ketogenic diet (KD) with personalized, accelerated intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) produces greater reductions in depressive symptoms than iTBS combined with a standard healthy diet in adults with treatment-resistant depression. The trial also aims to determine whether participants can feasibly follow a ketogenic diet during an accelerated iTBS treatment course and whether the diet produces measurable changes in ketone levels. Specifically, the study aims to determine whether the combined intervention: 1. Reduces depressive symptoms 2. Increases circulating ketone levels 3. Is feasible and tolerable during accelerated iTBS treatment Participants will begin either a KD or a Canadian Food Guide-aligned diet (CFGD) with a 3-week dietary lead-in period, after which they will undergo a course of personalized, accelerated iTBS while continuing their assigned diet. Before and after the iTBS treatment course, participants will complete clinical assessments, provide blood samples for metabolic testing, and undergo MRI scans to assess brain connectivity. Ketone levels will be measured daily throughout the 12-week dietary intervention. Within-group and between-group differences will be compared to characterize changes in clinical outcomes, metabolism, and brain functioning.

The goal of this prospective, randomized clinical trial is to learn whether pharmacogenomic (PGx)-guided comprehensive medication management delivered by pharmacists in community pharmacies will improve antidepressant treatment outcomes. The primary aim is to determine whether comprehensive medication management with review of PGx testing results improves depression symptoms, compared with usual care. Participants 18 years of age or older who have undergone PGx testing (e.g. through an independent biobanking study (Pitt+Me Discovery) who require initiation or adjustment of antidepressant therapy will be randomly assigned to receive either PGx-guided comprehensive medication management or usual care. Those who receive usual care will receive their PGx results at the end of the study. Researchers will compare the groups to assess whether PGx-guided care provided in partnership with community pharmacists and prescribers results in better depression and medication outcomes.

Survivors of critical illness are at high risk for mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD. This single-site, randomized controlled trial at the Medical University of South Carolina will enroll 150 patients to compare outcomes between a behavioral health Collaborative Care Model (BH CoCM) and usual care (attention control). The intervention includes digital tools (Neuroflow), behavioral health coaching, and psychiatric support.

The purpose of this clinical research study is to understand how effective and safe an investigational study drug called lumateperone is and whether it works to reduce the severity of depressive symptoms in adults with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and early life trauma. The main questions it aims to answer are: Aim 1: To assess the efficacy of lumateperone 42 mg administered once daily compared with placebo in the treatment of patients with Major Depressive Disorder and early life abuse. Aim 2: To assess neurocircuitry encoding of threat and reward learning as predictors of lumateperone response and as mechanisms of treatment action, and assess the change from pre-dose to post-dose of task-evoked brain activation.

Using a 2-arm, RCT approach, the primary goal of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training (IMST) as a non-pharmacologic intervention to reduce cardiovascular and cognitive risks in older adults. Next, we will examine secondary effects of IMST on mood, sleep quality, systemic inflammation, and physical/motor function. Finally, we will assess participant adherence and acceptability ratings of using an 8-week home-based IMST protocol in a diverse older adult sample.

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in the United States. Many men with prostate cancer are treated with hormone therapy, also called androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). While this treatment is effective, it often causes bothersome side effects such as hot flashes, poor sleep, fatigue, and other physical and emotional symptoms. There is currently no standard treatment to help manage these side effects in men. Acupuncture is a non-drug treatment that has been shown to help reduce hot flashes and related symptoms in women receiving hormone therapy for breast cancer. However, much less is known about whether acupuncture is helpful for men receiving hormone therapy for prostate cancer. This study will test whether an acupuncture program, combined with usual lifestyle education, is feasible and acceptable for men undergoing ADT. The study will also explore whether acupuncture may help reduce hot flashes and improve related symptoms. A total of 24 men with prostate cancer receiving ADT will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group will begin acupuncture right away, and the other group will begin acupuncture after a delay, with regular check-ins during the waiting period. All participants will receive standard lifestyle education. Participants will be followed for about five months and will be asked to complete daily hot flash diaries, questionnaires about their symptoms and quality of life, and wear a Fitbit to track sleep. The results of this pilot study will help determine whether a larger study should be conducted to better understand the role of acupuncture in managing hormone therapy side effects in men with prostate cancer.
