▼ Abstract of Rural/Urban Differences in Depression Diagnosis and Treatment among Those with Multiple Sclerosis in the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, by Kayla Haubrick, MPH, Brown University, May 2018 Authors: Haubrick KK, Shireman TI, Zhang T Background: Half of those with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience depression in their lifetime. Yet, under-screening for depression remains an issue for this community. Without treatment, MS and depression can worsen, increasing level of disability and decreasing quality of life. Barriers to MS and depression care in rural areas may inhibit depression treatment. Objectives: This study was to examine prevalence of diagnosed depression among those with MS, in rural and urban residences, in the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS), and to determine the proportion, in each area, who received depression treatment. Methods: Those with an ICD-9-CM code of MS (n=279) were identified from 2004-2012 MEPS data. Chi-square tests were used to examine differences in demographics between those living in rural and urban residences. Logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between depression diagnosis and residence type. Results: Of the MS sample, 39.1% had a formal depression diagnosis; values for rural and urban residences did not differ significantly. Among the sample, 14.3% received antidepressants and 2.9% received psychotherapy; these values also did not significantly vary by residence type. Current depression symptoms, assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire Screener (PHQ-2) were significantly higher in rural areas (p=0.012). After adjusting for sex, age, race, insurance status, marital status, education, work limitations, healthcare rating, perceived overall health status, PHQ-2 score, psychotherapy and antidepressants, the relationship between rural/urban residence and depression diagnosis was non-significant (OR=1.18; 95%CI: 0.41-3.45). Conclusions: This sample did not show significant rural/urban differences in depression diagnosis or treatment. However, results indicate that significantly more rural people with MS may have undiagnosed depression. Further work should be done with larger samples and follow-up.

▼ The prevalence and nature of depression among adolescents in the general population has received considerable empirical attention in the last decade. Although researchers and clinicians agree that depressive symptoms and depressive disorders are distressing to youths and may have wide ranging effects on their health and development, specific features of depression noted during adolescence (e.g., different manifestations of symptoms) warrant further examination. Using the domain of developmental psychopathology as a conceptual framework, the present study (a) examined sex and age differences in adolescents’ reports of depressive symptoms; (b) explored the extent to which other symptoms were associated with adolescents’ depressive symptoms; and (c) identified subtypes of adolescents who manifested their symptoms of depression in different ways. Data were collected from 379 community-dwelling adolescents (193 females, 186 males) ranging in age from 12 to 19 years. During one class period, youths completed anonymous questionnaires assessing their depressive and comorbid symptoms, personality style, and relationships with their mothers and fathers. Descriptive analyses showed that adolescent females reported higher levels of depressive symptoms than adolescent males and that adolescents’ reports of depressive symptoms tended to show a linear increase across age. Correlational analyses revealed that females who reported depressive symptoms were likely to also report anxiety symptoms whereas males who reported depressive symptoms also reported symptoms of anxiety, substance use, school misconduct, and antisocial behaviour. A K-means cluster analysis of the MAPI personality scales identified three subtypes of adolescents who manifested their depressive symptoms in different ways. These subtypes were labelled Isolated-Discontented, Engaged-Intrusive, and Inhibited- Insecure and were distinguished by their levels of depressive symptoms, patterns of co-occurring symptoms, relationships with their mothers, adolescent-specific concerns (e.g., personal esteem), and behavioural correlates (e.g.. impulse control). The discussion focuses on the clinical implications of these subtypes of depressed adolescents (e.g.. their clinical presentation, need for treatment, and appropriateness of specific interventions) as well as factors that may be contributing to the high level of depressive symptoms reported by the adolescents in this sample.

D.Litt. et Phil.

Within the South African context there seems to be no workable manual-based therapy programme for the treatment of Unipolar Major depression. The need for a workable solution is steadily increasing. This was the aim of this study; to develop a manual driven therapy programme for the treatment of Unipolar Major Depression which is a short term intervention influenced by the Cognitive Behaviourial model, with the inclusion of exercise therapy. The Cognitive Behaviourial model addresses the persons negative cognitions in a structured manner, within the framework of short term therapy. The person is encouraged to become actively involved: helplessness, worthlessness, and powerlessness, among others, are addressed. The approach towards the General Therapy Programme has partly a behaviourial component and partly a cognitive component (Williams, 1992). Past research (Kaplan, Saddock & Grebb, 1994) shows highly successful results achieved by Cognitive Behaviour Therapy. Exercise therapy also addresses the physiological workings of the depressed person (Johnsgard, 1989). Short term therapy is an immediate intervention which lays claim to a higher level of therapeutic activities, along with the identification of a clear focus and the creation of time limitation. There were 34 participants, selected randomly from a population of 85 patients, at TARA, the H. Moross centrum, general practitioners and psychiatrists. Only outpatients were used. The measuring instruments used in this study, were the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, the Millon's Clinical Multiaxial Inventory II, and the Nowlis Mood Adjective Checklist. The participants were randomly divided into an experimental and control group. The experimental group was subject to a short term Cognitive Behaviourial Intervention, consisting of eight therapy sessions with the goal of decreasing the intensity and occurrence of Unipolar Major Depression. The results of this study, shows an effective decrease in intensity and occurrence of Unipolar Major Depression after the intervention. The influence of the therapy programme on other personality indexes has also become apparent in this study. Cognitive Behaviour Therapy practised on a short term basis, was shown to be an effective intervention, but the impact of other therapeutic models cannot be ignored.

▼ Objective: Depression, a serious mental disorder, often leads to insomnia, depressed mood, chronic disability and even suicide. Recently, clinical trials demonstrated that bright light therapy was not only effective for seasonal affective disorder (SAD) but also working for non-seasonal depression. However, little is known about the mechanism. Our previous study indicated that light signals transmitted into dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) through retino-raphe projection which can modulate serotonin (5-HT) production and affective behavior. Thus we hypothesize that the retino-raphe projection plays a vital role in the light therapy for non-seasonal depression. Methods: Sprague Dawley rats with daily injection of 40 mg/kg corticosterone (CORT, stress hormone) for 2 weeks were established as a model of non-seasonal depression. Their behavior can be evaluated by forced swim test, sucrose preference test and antidepressant sensitivity of fluoxetine. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) light including blue light (470 nm) and full white light were chosen as light therapy for those stressed rats with 30 minutes each morning for 7 days. Results: Using anterograde and retrograde injection of cholera toxin subunit B (CTB), the DRN-projecting retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) were demonstrated a bit diverse, including ON / OFF alpha cells (~72%) and M1 / M2 melanopsin cells (~9%). The light therapy was effective in reversing the depressive-like responses of those stressed rats. In particular, the blue light therapy with 400 lux for 7 days exerted the efficacy similar to the fluoxetine treatment for 14 days. It was implicated that light therapy had a relatively rapid antidepressant effect. It was further found that the c-Fos positive cells in ganglion cell layer were remarkably increased with light therapy particularly using the blue light. While in the DRN the expression levels of c-Fos and phosphorylated cyclic AMP response element binding protein (p-CREB) were lower dramatically in the blue light-treated group. The decline of p-CREB in DRN supported the result of a decrease of c-Fos expression since p-CREB is upstream of c-Fos. Interestingly, the c-Fos positive serotonergic neurons in the DRN remained no change, just approximately 4% of total serotonergic neurons, during the corticosterone administration and light therapy. However, the c-Fos expression of the GABAergic interneurons in the lateral regions of DRN was significantly increased with corticosterone administration, which could lead to the inhibition of 5-HT synthesis. While the activation of GABAergic interneurons was almost reversed to a basal line using the blue light therapy for a week. The elimination of the retino-raphe projection via a saporin treatment significantly attenuated the antidepressant effect achieved by light therapy on those stressed rats. Conclusion: Depressive behavior of rat model, caused by high dosage of stress hormone, can be reversed by light therapy especially the blue light therapy. The retino-raphe projection plays a critical role in the light…

Background Due to the aging of the population and the increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity, the global prevalence of diabetes had been steadily rising. The onset of depression among this diabetes population is a public health issue because of the negative impact on diabetes self-care, treatment adherence and increases in healthcare costs. Three previous meta-analyses have showed that diabetes patients are at an increased risk of developing depression when compared to their non-diabetes counterparts. However, none of these meta-analyses have included primary studies that consisted of primarily Chinese subjects or have considered studies published in Chinese. Thus, there is a knowledge gap for a meta-analysis to study the onset of depression among both Chinese and non-Chinese diabetes subjects. Methods Studies will be selected based on the pre-specified inclusion and exclusion criteria. Studies that are ambiguous to this study criterion will not be selected. Studies are retrieved from three electronic databases, PUBMED, Cochrane library and Wanfang databases. Keywords of “diabet*” and “depress*” where “*” indicated a truncated term were used to identify articles related to diabetes and depression. Only longitudinal studies are selected. Chinese and English articles that are published on or before 31 July 2013 are considered. Besides data collection, quality assessment are also performed based on a tool developed with reference to the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) statement. Results 12 longitudinal studies are identified after the quality assessment procedures, with one study being a Chinese study from Taiwan. In this meta-analysis, the pooled unadjusted odds ratio was 1.26 [95% confidence interval: 1.09, 1.45]. The pooled adjusted hazards ratio is 1.26 [95% confidence interval: 1.12, 1.41]. Since both pooled unadjusted odds ratio and pooled adjusted hazards ratio estimates did not include 1, it may imply that the increases in risk of depression onset among diabetes subjects are significant, whether controlled for confounding factors or not. Conclusion This meta-analysis showed a significant increase in the risk of depression onset among Chinese and non-Chinese diabetes subjects, when compared to their non-diabetes counterparts. There are possible public health implications for depression screening needs for the diabetes population in Hong Kong.

▼ This thesis arose out of my professional engagement as a therapist, with people suffering depression, and from my recognition of the significance of such people’s workplace experience in times of significant workplace change. Worker depression is now widely identified as a significant and growing problem by employers, by governments and by international authorities such as the World Health Organisation. By the end of the 20th century, it had become a significant site for policy, leading to the collection of data and the development of management ‘tools’ at all these levels. Actions formed by such new policy range from workplace interventions to the establishment of government-funded bodies, such as beyondblue and the Black Dog Institute in Australia, charged with both research and information dissemination. An understanding of the context in which depression is increasing requires an exploration of two 20th century phenomena: on the one hand, the changing workplace of the advanced capitalist societies; and on the other, the ways in which depression itself has come to be diagnosed and treated, and consequently understood, as a medical phenomenon. There is a substantial literature on the contemporary workplace, and on the diagnosis, treatment and management of depression. Very little is available, however, dealing with the experience of individual workers who have been diagnosed with depression. This is the area the thesis is concerned to explore. In order to undertake this task, two significant methodological moves have been made, away from the ‘realist’ orientation of much of the available literature. The ‘genealogical’ move, drawing on Foucault, is the move concerned to understand how things are as they are and not otherwise, to ask questions such as: How has depression come to be a more and more common diagnosis in the late 20th - early 21st centuries? What is it about workers’ experience of the workplace that is making such diagnoses more likely? Might it be the case that more workers are increasingly unhappy and that unhappiness, particularly manifested somatically, through bodily ‘symptoms’, is increasingly likely to be diagnosed and treated medically, as depression? The ‘discursive’ move, drawing on Foucault, together with Nikolas Rose and Judith Butler, is the move that works with the understanding that selves are not simply given, existing autonomously. Rather, persons are constituted as selves – as subjects – in and through their active participation in the social worlds they come to inhabit. The mechanisms of this participation are the characteristic ways of acting and speaking – the discourses – of social institutions. Learning such discourses involves not only learning how to act appropriately but also to become a certain kind of self. For workers in the neoliberal workplace, this means learning to be the autonomous, flexible worker of overt requirements while simultaneously learning to live with increased demands for hours of work and levels of work output, together…

▼ The purpose of this study was to evaluate Tucker's hypothesis of differential hemispheric functioning in depression, the validity of Beck's cognitive theory and Lewinsohn's behavioral theory of depression for clinically depressed subjects, and the relationship between hemispheric functioning and cognitive-behavioral functioning throughout a period of hospitalization for depression. A 3x2x2x3 repeated-measures study was conducted with 48 right-handed subjects in three groups: depressed, normal and psychiatric comparison. Each group contained an equal number of males and females. To test for right hemisphere functioning, subjects were administered a dichotic stimulation test (Musical Chords) in which the left ear (right hemisphere) has previously proven superior in normal right-handers. A dichotic test in which the right ear is normally superior (Word Triads) was administered as a control. A righthemrsphere cognitive test (Flags) was also administered, with a left hemisphere cognitive test (Word Fluency) as a control. A Cognitive Distortion Questionnaire was used to measure depressives' cognitions within Beck's typology, and a short version of the Pleasant Events Schedule was used to measure response-contingent positive reinforcement within Lewinsohn's theoretical framework. Patients were tested at admission to hospital, 10-13 days later, and at discharge, in order to observe changes in hemispheric, cognitive and behavioral functioning, at intervals ranging from severe depression to recovery. On both dichotic tests, depressives failed to obtain normal ear superiorities at admission to hospital, but did so by discharge. Flags scores of depressives were low at each trial, while Word Fluency was unimpaired at any time. These results suggest that two different processes, one acute and one chronic, are operating during depression. An acute interhemispheric process apparently affects both hemispheres, producing a breakdown in normal asymmetries for processing mode. With treatment, this acute process abates, and normal asymmetries once again emerge. A second process apparently involves chronic inhibition of certain right hemisphere cognitive functions. This could represent a neurogenic index of psychiatric vulnerability within depression-prone individuals. Consistent with Beck's cognitive theory, depressives demonstrated a high degree of cognitive distortion at admission to hospital. However, since at discharge depressives no longer demonstrated cognitive distortion, the study provided no evidence that cognitive distortion is a characteristic of depression-prone persons. However, more research is needed to assess the validity of the cognitive distortion measure employed in the study. Consistent with Lewinsohn's behavioral theory, depressives demonstrated a low rate of response-contingent positive reinforcement at admission to hospital and increased reinforcement rate by discharge. However, since reinforcement rate of normals dropped across trials while their mood level did not, these results do not provide clear support for…

▼ Research indicates that the prevalence of childhood depression is increasing, the onset of depression is occurring earlier in life, and that depression coexists with other mental health problems such as anxiety and disruptive behaviour disorders. Teachers are more responsive to behavioural manifestations such as hyperactivity, disruptive behaviour and aggression. They are less responsive to interpersonal difficulties and less disruptive behaviours such as withdrawal and social isolation. While they can correctly recognize that internalizing symptoms such as withdrawal and sadness are indicators of depression, they are unable to correctly recognize that externalizing behaviours such as disruptiveness and aggression can also be indicators of depression. Since many of these symptoms of depression manifest in the school, it is imperative that teachers are able to correctly identify the symptoms of depression. The correct management of the child prevents the depression from worsening and leading to disastrous consequences. The purpose of this study was to establish whether teachers were fully knowledgeable about the behavioural symptoms of depression. A former purpose was to determine the management strategies used at school, and to develop a guideline document for teachers. Survey methodology and interview techniques were used to collect data for the study. These methods provided quantitative and qualitative data. The participants comprised 56 primary school teachers from three randomly selected schools. Two questionnaires were specially designed to gather data for the study. The results of the study revealed that teachers were not fully knowledgeable about the behavioural symptoms of depression and that they lacked the depth of knowledge required to recognize the significance of the diagnostic criteria of depression "which manifest as behavioural symptoms in school. The results showed mat more than 57 % of participants felt that parents and home factors were responsible for depression. Results also indicated that the majority of participants were not able to recognize the multiplicity of factors that could cause and result in depression. In the perceived absence of psychological support from the Department of Education, participants indicated a need for guidelines for identification and management of symptoms of depression. There was overwhelming support for the implementation of a self-esteem programme at schools. At the conclusion of the study, a document which outlined recognition and management of the behavioural symptoms of depression, was developed by the researcher. As a result of the findings of the study, recommendations were made to teachers, the schools' management team, as well as to the Department of Education. Recommendations made to teachers included training the child in social skills and cognitive strategies, and maintaining contact with parents. One important recommendation to the schools' management was the timely referral of depressed children to mental health professionals.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a devastating psychiatric disorder that affects more than 300 million people worldwide. Current treatment relies on antidepressants and psychotherapy, but fails in those who are treatment-resistant. MDD is recognized as a risk factor of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and their comorbidity is known as depression in AD (dAD). The prevalence of AD is also vastly increasing. Difficulties in early diagnosis and limited treatment render AD to be a great burden to the healthcare system. Patients of dAD experience more severe symptoms and lower quality of life. Investigation of the common pathological features between MDD and AD will help elucidate mechanisms that lead to common neurodegenerative pathways. Dendritic regression and synaptic loss are commonly observed in MDD and AD. Cytoskeletal dysfunction including microtubule and actin plays a role in many psychiatric disorders. Microtubule and actin function and morphology are governed by specific modifications and signaling pathways. Alteration in these processes may affect their function. The roles of microtubule and actin in MDD and AD as a common pathological feature will be investigated. Primary culture of hippocampal neurons from Sprague Dawley rats was exposed to corticosterone (CORT) or oligomeric amyloid β (Aβ1-42) for 24 or 48 hr to induce in vitro models of MDD and AD, respectively. Neurons were grown to day 14 or 21. This study demonstrated the effects of CORT or Aβ1-42 on microtubule and actin. Results revealed reduction in microtubule stability through unevenly distributed immunoreactivity of microtubule-associated protein 2 and decreased acetylated tubulin. Alteration in the tyrosinated to detyrosinated tubulin ratio may be a contributing factor to decreased colocalization with plus end binding protein 3. On the other hand, decrease in post-synaptic density 95 immunoreactivity and level of β-actin postulated synaptic changes caused by exposure to CORT or Aβ1-42. Actin rods were apparent in neurons exposed to CORT or Aβ1-42, suggesting a possible involvement of oxidative stress. Signaling molecules cofilin and LIM kinase responsible for rods formation were significantly increased. More importantly, this study demonstrated the impact of microtubule stability on the integrity of actin filament. Treatment with taxol prior to exposure to CORT or Aβ1-42 prevented changes caused by the two treatments. In conclusion, this study showed the effects of CORT or Aβ1-42 on microtubule and actin filaments. The dysfunction of these cytoskeletal proteins is a common pathological feature of MDD and AD. Furthermore, the importance of microtubule stability in maintaining actin integrity has been established. This study provides knowledge in understanding the mechanism of neurodegeneration in MDD and AD. Finally, it gives insight to potential therapeutic pathways.

▼ Psychological depression is a multi-factorial prevailing mental disease that frequently coexists with other disabling maladies such as diabetes, together incurring inestimable burdens worldwide. A recently-proposed theory suggests that suppression of neurogenesis which originates neural progenitor cells in the hippocampal dentate gyrus could be the underlying etiology, while physical exercise as a long-recognized remedy against depression is capable of restoring this impairment by an unknown mechanism. Adiponectin is an adipocyte-secreted protein abundant in the circulation and resembles exercise in counteracting diabetes, inflammation and atherosclerosis. This molecule has also been found to be neuroprotective and possibly linked to depression, given that circulating adiponectin concentrations are reduced in depressive patients and reversed by antidepressants. Following these implications, my current study examined whether and how adiponectin would serve to mediate exercise-triggered anti-depressive benefits. Voluntary wheel running and daily injections of corticosterone within the same designated period were adopted as the paradigm for exercise training and stress insult in adult male animals, respectively. The in vivo assays showed that under the basal condition, indices including behavioral despairs, general condition, locomotor function, anxiety state, short-term recognition memory, as well as hippocampal neurogenesis reflected by densities of newborn, proliferating, and immature neuronal populations were unexceptionally comparable between wild-type and adiponectin-knockout mice. Prolonged corticosterone administration that caused dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis suppressed hippocampal neurogenesis and elicited depression-like behaviors similarly in non-runners of both genotypes. However, running-induced enhancement of hippocampal neurogenesis and mitigation of depressive severity, either preventive or curative, were exclusively observed in wild-type mice. Adiponectin proved permeable through the blood-brain barrier. Running-elevated serum and hippocampal adiponectin levels concurrent with activation of the proneurogenic AMPK pathway were abolished upon adiponectin knockout. In contrast, hippocampal levels of BDNF and IGF-1, together with expressions of the adiponectin receptors and adaptor protein APPL1 were unaltered by any specified maneuver. Raising hippocampal adiponectin levels by the adenovirus-mediated overexpressing strategy in wild-type non-runners duplicated the beneficial effects of exercise, including promotion of hippocampal neurogenesis that was negatively correlated with depressive severity. The proneurogenic effect of adiponectin was also verified in vitro. Adiponectin receptors and APPL1 were expressed comparably on neural progenitor cells isolated from wild-type and adiponectin-deficient mice. Applying adiponectin increased proliferation, but not neuronal differentiation in a concentration-dependent manner, with similar efficacies and potencies between these two…

▼ Both sleep disturbances and cognitive and affective biases (attention, memory and interpretation biases) are associated with the onset and maintenance of depression. In recent decades, it has been hypothesized that sleep disturbances might be critical for the affect regulation in depression. Experimental studies further suggested that cognitive and affective processing, including attention, memory, and interpretation of emotional information in healthy populations is affected by sleep. However, it remained unclear whether and how sleep is associated with the cognitive and affective biases in individuals with depression. The current thesis reports two studies that investigated the relationship between sleep and cognitive and affective biases in depression. Study 1 was conducted to investigate the interactive effects of depression and sleep disturbances including insomnia and short sleep duration on cognitive and affective biases. Fifty-four individuals with major depressive disorder and 81 non-depressed controls completed a set of questionnaire and a one-week sleep diary with actigraph before the experiment. On the experimental day, they were administered a dot-probe task (to measure attentional bias), an incidental memory task (to measure memory bias) and an emotional face perception task (to measure interpretation bias). Study 2 involved the experimental manipulation of sleep using a napping paradigm. The same participants from Study 1 completed the aforementioned tasks again after one of the three randomly assigned conditions (i.e. No nap, 30-min nap, 90-min nap). Changes in task performance across wakefulness and different periods of sleep were compared. Results of Study 1 indicated that cognitive and affective biases in individuals with depression were moderated by habitual sleep duration and insomnia independently. Individuals with both depression and short sleep displayed more intense perception of mildly expressive sad faces than the non-depressed individuals. The recognition memory of positively-valenced pictures was poorer in individuals with both depression and insomnia compared with those with depression only. Results of Study 2 showed that within the depressed group, increased negative attentional bias was found after a period of wakefulness, whereas napping mitigated the changes. While consolidation of positively-valenced eyes pictures in the sleep condition was found in the control group, the depressed group failed to show consolidation of positive stimuli over sleep. Instead, the depressed group showed memory consolidation of neutrally-valenced stimuli after nap conditions without Rapid-Eye-Movement (REM) sleep, but not those with REM sleep. Increased intensity ratings of fearful and angry faces were observed in the depressed group who achieved REM sleep only. The findings suggest that the emotional processing in the depressed group was altered by a period of sleep. In summary, the current thesis demonstrated that cognitive and affective biases in depression were moderated by habitual sleep… Advisors/Committee Members: Chan, CS, Lau, YYE.

▼ Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a prevalent and disabling disorder worldwide and in Hong Kong. It can occur alone or as a psychiatric sequelae of stroke known as post stroke depression (PSD). Our recent randomized controlled trial (RCT) found that additional dense cranial electroacupuncture stimulation (DCEAS) produced significantly greater improvement on depressive symptoms in patients with MDD compared to conventional antidepressants alone. However, the effectiveness of DCEAS on PSD and the underlying neural mechanism of its antidepressant effects remain unclear and need further investigation. This thesis consisted of three studies aimed to evaluate the efficacy of DCEAS as an additional therapy in PSD and to explore the neuroimaging correlates of DCEAS in MDD using PET and fMRI modalities. The purpose of Study 1 was to examine whether additional DCEAS was effective in treating PSD. A single blind RCT was conducted in 43 PSD patients treated with antidepressants and same body acupuncture combined with sham or active DCEAS with 3 acupuncture sessions per week for 4 weeks. Clinical outcomes included the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale 17-Item (HAMD-17), Clinical Global Impression - Severity Scale (CGI-S), and Barthel Index (BI).The results showed that DCEAS significantly reduced HAMD-17 at week 1, CGI-S at week 1 and endpoint whereas BI was more significantly decreased in control group. A combination of DCEAS and body acupuncture can be considered as an augmenting treatment for PSD. Study 2 aimed to explore the potential effects of DCEAS in regulating abnormal glucose metabolism in patients with MDD using 18F-FDG PET/CT. A single blind RCT was conducted in 25 MDD patients treated with antidepressants combined with sham or active DCEAS with 3 acupuncture sessions per week for 6 weeks. Clinical outcomes were measured using the HAMD-17, Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), CGI-S and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). There was a significant difference on the slope in SDS in linear mixed model analysis, indicating a faster improvement in subjective depressive symptoms by DCEAS. While the increased 18F-FDG signals in the cerebellum were normalized in both groups, the reversion of the reduced 18F-FDG signals in the left prefrontal cortex was only observed in DCEAS-treated patients, suggesting that additional DCEAS could more vigorously improve abnormal brain glucose metabolism in MDD. The purpose of Study 3 was to further investigate the neuropsychological and functional neuroimaging correlates of the antidepressant effects of DCEAS in the same pool of MDD subjects in Study 2 using fMRI with sad-face paradigm. The sad-face stimulation increased BOLD signals in an extensive neural network of the brain, including the frontal, temporal, parietal, limbic system and cerebellum. Additional DCEAS extensively suppressed the abnormal BOLD signals in these brain regions, more apparently in left caudate and cingulate, whereas sham treatment had slightly suppressive effects in fewer brain regions, suggesting that…

▼ Depression creates huge socioeconomic problems globally and will become the most serious cause of disability in 2030. Effective and community-based treatment methods are urgently needed to cope with critical issues affected by depression. Recent neuroscience research has reexamined how affect mediates the responses between the mind and body. The discussion of the relationships between various neurological processes during clay art making established the underpinnings of adopting a body–mind and bottom–up integrated approach. Clay art therapy (CAT) incorporated nonverbal and verbal; kinesthetic, sensory, and psychological components in treatment. The adoption of clay as the only art medium with the use of the Expressive Therapies Continuum (ETC) framework organized the intervention on the body and mind from a bottom-up hierarchy. All these have rarely been reported in art therapy and psychiatry literature and randomized controlled trial has never been conducted in this area. This study adopted a mixed methods approach in which 100 patients with depression were randomly allocated into Clay Art Therapy (CAT) group and nondirective Visual Art (VA) control group in community setting. Both groups met for 2.5 hours weekly for six sessions. For quantitative method, an outcome study was applied to measure intervention effects with Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II-C), General Health Questionnaires (GHQ-12), Body–Mind–Spirit–Well-Being Inventory (BMSWBI), and Toronto Alexithymia Scale 20 (TAS-20). Quantitative data were collected at baseline (T0), end of treatment (T1) and three weeks after (T2). A process study was conducted in which the participants in the CAT group were asked to fill out a form to record the ETC movements in the clay work processes. For qualitative method, art-based qualitative inquiry was adopted. Content analysis of codes derived from the semi-structured interview with participants conducted at T2 would be able to understand the participants’ experiences of the intervention. Results of repeated measures MANCOVA showed significant improvement in depressive signs, general health, Body–Mind–Spirit–Well-Being, and ability to articulate inner process in CAT group compared with the control VA group across T0, T1, and T2. Univariate analyses revealed a significant effect for BDI-II-C, GHQ-12, and BMSWBI, but not on TAS-20 in CAT group compared with the control group across the time points. The CAT intervention was found to be more effective than the VA intervention in alleviating depressive signs, improving general health, daily functioning, and holistic well-being of the participants. Analysis of the ETC movement direction showed a coherent flow moving from the predominance of Kinesthetic–Sensory level (session 1-2), gradually transited to Perceptual–Affective level (session 3-4), and finally to Cognitive–Symbolic level (session 5-6). This supported the effects of CAT in progressively integrating the body and mind with a bottom–up approach. Qualitative results demonstrated various effects of CAT…

▼ Insomnia, the most prevalent sleep complaint, is a common symptom of depression, as well as constituting a 'primary' diagnosis. Controversy remains about whether insomnia should be regarded as 'secondary' when co-occurring with depression, given that insomnia often occurs prior to other symptoms. This study investigated the extent to which insomnia is considered secondary to unipolar forms of depression using a qualitative case study approach to allow for individual differences and to address the phenomenology associated with these conditions. Seven participants (six with self-reported insomnia, four of whom had also been diagnosed with depression, and one suffering from depression only) were interviewed in a semi-structured format and asked to describe their experiences in terms of symptom onset and impact, and their thoughts about the nature of the relationship between insomnia and depression. The participants with both conditions mostly considered insomnia and depression to be independent, despite commonly experiencing insomnia alongside core depressive symptoms. They all had insomnia prior to depression, and they considered insomnia to be 'primary' rather than 'secondary'. Five out of six participants with insomnia reported having an overactive mind when attempting to sleep. Those with only insomnia potentially differed from other participants due to the content of their thoughts and the presence of factors in their life that may be protective in terms of developing depression. Despite experiencing negative and overactive thoughts, the participant with depression, but not insomnia, attributed having an active working life to avoiding insomnia. Further research investigating the complex interplay between life circumstances (risk and protective factors), the content of overactive cognitions, and endogenous versus reactive forms of depression, would be beneficial to better understand the nature of the relationship between insomnia and depression.

It has long been shown that varying types of stress can predict and precipitate the onset of a depressive episode. Much research has illustrated that there is an increased frequency and severity of premorbid stressors in depressed individuals as compared with controls (Hammen, 2005). However, not all individuals who experience stressful life events, irrespective of how severe they may be, experience psychopathological symptomology (Monroe & Simons, 1991). It is for this reason that the diathesis-stress model, in which certain factors, such as premorbid vulnerabilities, interact with stress and trigger depressive symptoms, has been studied and expanded upon extensively. Contrary to the earlier biological perspective of the model, researchers are increasingly recognizing psychological factors such as cognitive and behavioral styles and personality traits, as diatheses (Monroe & Simons, 1991). While cognitive, behavioral and personality factors may be important, few investigators have studied the moderating role of emotional regulation. In Gross and Munoz's (1995) model of emotion, emotions are a response to, or interpretation of, events or intrapsychic processes. Furthermore, Gross (1998) described emotion regulation as "the processes by which individuals influence which emotions they have, when they have them, and how they experience and express these emotions." Not surprisingly, it has been shown that there are many negative implications regarding the inability to successfully regulate emotions such as the increased risk for developing depression. Whereas there is growing literature on the effects of emotion dysregulation on depression, there has been little research regarding how emotion regulatory processes fit into the stress-depression relationship. The aim of this study is to test whether emotion regulatory styles serve to moderate stress in predicting depressive symptoms. More specifically, 160 undergraduate students were recruited to complete the following measures: Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale, the Center for Epidemiologic Studies - Depression-10, the Perceived Stress Scale and the Survey of Recent Life Experiences. In analyzing the data, two hierarchical linear regressions were conducted to test the hypotheses that two measures of stress, perceived stress and experienced life stress will each be moderated by emotion regulation. In the present study, experience life stress (as measured by the SRLE) was significantly moderated by emotion regulation while perceived stress was not. This suggests that stress measurements differentially interact with emotion regulation to predict depressive symptoms.
