Study Summary

This trial will investigate whether a single session of emotion regulation training can reduce cardiovascular disease risk in young adults with depression living in Southern Mississippi. Before and after the skills training session, participants will supply several biological metrics tied to CVD risk: resting HRV, inflammation (measured via c-reactive protein [CRP]), and blood pressure.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for young adults aged 18-29 in Southern Mississippi who are diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) and have been on stable medications for at least a month. Participants must be able to understand and consent in English, and not have cardiovascular diseases or recent medication changes.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if a single-session emotion regulation training can lower the risk of heart disease by improving heart rate variability, reducing inflammation, and lowering blood pressure among depressed young adults.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves non-invasive emotion regulation training rather than medication or invasive procedures, significant side effects are not anticipated.
